The Matana Leather Armor does not include any Abyss Gear sockets. For leather chest armor with Abyss Gear options, the Blackwing Leather Armor provides three Abyss Core sockets alongside substantially higher defense.
The Matana Leather Armor is crafted at a Blacksmith after examining the crafting manual Leather Armors of the World, Vol. I. This manual is found on a shelf outside a house in Tinkerton in the Delesyia region and costs 54 Copper to purchase.
The same crafting manual unlocks recipes for several other leather armor pieces, including the Ynitium Leather Armor, Weasel Leather Armor, Northern Fighter's Leather Gloves, Sein Leather Boots, Jester Leather Gloves, Melvin Leather Gloves, and more.
Leather chest armor typically requires hide materials gathered from hunting animals throughout Pywel. Common materials include Thin Hide and Thick Hide, which drop from wolves, deer, and other wildlife in the Hernand region and beyond.
Like most standard leather armor, the Matana Leather Armor may also appear in equipment vendor inventories or as loot from treasure chests scattered across the open world.

The Matana Leather Armor is interchangeable with the Ynitium Leather Armor and Weasel Leather Armor in terms of stats. Craft whichever one you have materials for first.
