If personal opinions can’t narrow down your favorite outfits from all those tailor shops for you, let this list help you. Bear in mind, only complete outfits are considered and not separate pieces of clothing. (Otherwise, the list would be incredibly extensive. There are more than one hundred items of clothing in the game.) Read on if you want to know which RDR2 outfits are right for you.

Updated August 20th, 2021 by Amanda Hurych: Even years after Red Dead Redemption 2’s release, countless players are still diving into Arthur Morgan’s cowboy boots to live out their life as an outlaw in the Wild West. There is such a wonderful replayability factor when it comes to crafting a unique open-world adventure like this, and it is assisted by having the option to wear a multitude of great outifts. More details on how players can acquire these get-ups have been provided.
10 The Legend Of The East
How To Obtain: Unlocked by completing all challenges Cost: N/A Temperature Considerations: None
Without a doubt, the Legend of the East outfit is the most stylish set of clothing players can unlock in Red Dead Redemption 2. Not only can it be worn in any kind of weather without any detriments, but it is also definitively earned by completing every challenge in the game. The only downside to this outfit is the fact that, since it’s unlocked by finishing every challenge, it can only be worn by John Marston. Luckily, there are cheats to rectify that.
9 The Gunslinger
How To Obtain: Unlocked after completing the mission “Eastward Bound” Cost: N/A Temperature Considerations: Best worn in hot or average weather
You can’t go wrong with the default outfit. Whether you decide to sport the Summer Gunslinger look or the Winter Gunslinger look, that specific outfit has been crafted to be Arthur Morgan’s default appearance.

It costs nothing since it is already in Arthur’s wardrobe at the start of the game, and Arthur looks dang good in it. While it doesn’t have any fancy trappings on it, there’s no fuss or muss in choosing that as your favorite outfit.
8 The Trophy Buck
How To Obtain: Purchased at the Trapper’s Cost: $115. 00 Temperature Considerations: None
Hunting down the Legendary Buck, Fox, and Ram can give players the Trophy Buck outfit. The jacket smartly reminds one of the default Gunslinger jacket, but the raccoon-skin hat makes this get-up stand out from the crowd. Though it takes a bit of assembling, the Trophy Buck outfit is one of the better choices of dress available from the Trapper. It does not require too many pelts and it does not look as ridiculous as other options.
7 The Bear Hunter
How To Obtain: Purchased at the Trapper’s Cost: $117. 00 Temperature Considerations: None
Nothing screams fashion like wearing a bear head on top of your own head. During an early hunting mission with Hosea, Arthur gets the opportunity to bag the Legendary Bear.
In addition to the Legendary Bear Pelt, the Trapper will need Perfect Bison, Boar, Bull, and Rabbit pelts in order to craft the Bear Hunter outfit. While this might seem like a lot to work for, the astounding sight of Arthur walking around with a grizzled bear’s face on his head make it worth it.
6 The Saint-Denis
How To Obtain: Purchased at the Saint Denis tailor’s Cost: $98. 75 Temperature Considerations: Best worn in hot or average weather
This particular outfit can only be bought in the city of Saint-Denis, and it is even named after this location. Saint-Denis came as a visual shock to players given that most of the game had taken place in the wilderness with small towns sprinkled here and there.
Saint-Denis burst onto the scene with a city-like environment, complete with more polished outfits. The Saint-Denis outfit is a semi-affordable choice from the tailor shop that will have Arthur Morgan blending in with the crowds quite nicely.
5 The Ghost Bison
How To Obtain: Purchased at the Trapper’s Cost: $133. 00 Temperature Considerations: None
The words “ghost bison” sound terribly cool. If selecting an outfit only relied on hearing its name, then the Ghost Bison would win for sure. And once players get a look at the outfit in its entirety, they will not regret the time spent collecting those Legendary Elk Pelts and Legendary Bison Pelts.

The white coloring of the Legendary Bison’s fur makes the hood the Trapper crafts for the outfit look like a ghostly top, complete with tiny horns. The snow-white pelt of the Legendary Elk is also used to make the coat and mittens of the outfit, completing Arthur’s transformation into an eerie hunter of the woods.
4 The Faulkton
How To Obtain: Purchased in the Strawberry general store Cost: $84. 50 Temperature Considerations: Best worn in hot or average weather
Of middling price at Strawberry’s General Store, the Faulkton is one of the better outfits you can purchase in the game. It does not cost as much as some of the other outfits sold at Strawberry (and nowhere near as much as those sold in Saint-Denis), and it does not require a high honor rating in order to purchase it at all.
Its look is understated. It has a nice long jacket, but it is still able to be worn in both average and hot temperatures. Though of course, it’s still a mystery as to why Arthur Morgan is allowed back into Strawberry in the first place.
3 The Beast Of Prey
How To Obtain: Purchased at the Trapper’s Cost: $144. 00 Temperature Considerations: None
The Beast of Prey outfit you can hunt down at the Trapper’s takes a lot of work to put together. You have to hunt the Legendary Cougar and the Legendary Wolf in addition to collecting a few other Perfect pelts.
As you might have sussed out, the Legendary Wolf and the Legendary Cougar will not come quietly. They’re some of the more vicious animals in the world of Red Dead Redemption 2. But if you do collect their pelts and get the Beast of Prey outfit, you’ll know it was worth it because you will look like one sharp hunter of predators.
2 The Dreamcatcher
How To Obtain: Purchased at the Trapper’s Cost: $139. 00 Temperature Considerations: None
The Dreamcatcher looks like a helter-skelter collection of pelts meshed together, making it one of the most unique and distinct-looking outfits in Red Dead Redemption 2. The grey Legendary Bison chaps blend with the Legendary Bison vest.
However, the Legendary Beaver Pelt, Legendary Boar Pelt, and Cardinal Feather needed for the hat make it the best article of clothing in the outfit.The Dreamcatcher is a real feather in Arthur Morgan’s cap when it comes to his wardrobe.
1 Best: The Gambler
How To Obtain: Purchased in the Rhodes general store Cost: $123. 25 Temperature Considerations: Best worn in hot or average weather
A trip to Rhodes can give Arthur Morgan one of the sharpest appearances he can purchase outside of Saint Denis. The Gambler outfit outshines other purchasable looks, with a dark checkered jacket and bright red vest and shirt. It’s one of the most expensive pieces of clothing you can buy at Rhodes, but it pays itself back with how incredibly awesome it makes Arthur appear.
