★ Sport Gloves | Pandora's Box (Battle-Scarred)

Skin overview

Battle-Scarred ★ Sport Gloves | Pandora's Box keep only a weathered version of their black and violet design. Heavy stains and fading cover the palms, fingers and cuff, and the marbled print becomes patchy. The dark mesh back and purple outlines remain the main recognisable elements.

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

Appearance in Battle-Scarred

The back of the hand is a black and grey perforated mesh panel with a violet gradient and light grey stripe markings across it. Bright violet trim outlines the panels, the fingers and the knuckle area, with glossy black inserts between them.

Battle-Scarred brings heavy grime over the palms, fingers, knuckles and cuff. The violet trim is strongly faded and the marbled print turns patchy. Even the back panel shows dirt over the mesh and stripes. The gloves keep their black and purple silhouette but look rough at any distance.
