11Torn Gloves is the Common hands piece of the Common starter outfit in Windrose. It is the default starter garment equipped after the prologue shipwreck and is not crafted.

Keep in mind the Common tier has no set bonus and minimal upgrade headroom at the Upgrading Station.The torn state of the starter outfit is the game's visual shorthand for the protagonist's opening circumstances: a freelance courier whose ship and crew were lost in Blackbeard's ambush during the prologue, leaving the player washed up on the Islander Quest starting island in reduced dress.Replace it as soon as the first Uncommon piece can be crafted at the Armor and Clothing Workshop: typically a Survivor's Set piece. Disassembling the Torn piece at the Disassembly Table returns nothing meaningful, so vendors or stashes are the usual disposal route.232324+Upgrade Path25+26+Torn Gloves are placeholder gear.
