★ Hand Wraps | Giraffe (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

The giraffe motif survives here as a muted, earthy pattern of brown spots on a stained, darkened base. Battle-Scarred is the most affordable way to get these gloves, and the heavy wear fits the rough cloth-wrap style. The colours are far less vivid than on clean copies, so expect a dusty, faded look.

Item type: gloves. Extraordinary is the gloves rarity: in cases they are the rare special item, above any weapon skin.

Other qualities of this skin: Factory New, Minimal Wear, Field-Tested and Well-Worn.

How the skin looks in Battle-Scarred

The cloth wraps covering the back of the hand and the wrist carry a giraffe-hide print: irregular rust-orange and brown patches with darker outlines on a pale cream base with a faint greenish tint. The knuckles and finger sections are dark brown padded material that frames the light print with strong contrast.

The base is heavily darkened and stained, and the print looks dusty and low in contrast. The orange patches are strongly muted, and the fold edges and knuckle area show the heaviest dirt and abrasion. In game the gloves read as a brownish spotted wrap rather than a bright giraffe print. The dark finger sections hide wear better and still look fairly uniform.

What to look at before you buy

• Check the float position within the wear, since the cream base darkens steadily as the float rises.
• Look at the fold edges on the wrist and the area over the knuckles, where staining shows first.
• Compare the brightness of the orange patches on the inspect screen, as they define how lively the print looks.
• Make sure the darker tone of higher floats fits the knife and skins you plan to pair with these gloves.

Who should buy Battle-Scarred

• Players looking for the cheapest entry into these gloves.
• Owners of dark or worn skins who want a matching dusty look.
