i like the idea, i agree with the katana being out of place, but i do have an idea that could go well with the pirate theme of the server.

this would take quite a bit of time but perhaps you could create a different pirate clothes for the textures of each dyed leather armor, such as red would become a redcoat uniform, black would be dread pirate garb, and maybe brown could be old and worn deckhand clothes.

and since you would be designing the pack, i assume u could choose from one of the 16 or so colors of leather to design a fruit pirate suit 😉
