Light armours are relatively light and cheap type of armour. Though not as light and cheap as clothes, they give more than double the Armour Armour bonus. They are the heaviest type of armour that uses thread, and make an excellent early-game or mass-production armour option.

Light armour occupies the Armour equipment slot.

All light armour gives Armour Armour; the quality of the materials determines how much. Many also grant a second or even third attribute bonus. Both the primary and secondary materials used affect what additional attributes the item gives. Using gems as the secondary material adds a random attribute bonus.

Researching Light armours crafting has no prerequisites, and is required to unlock Shields, Medium armours, and Heavy armours (via Medium armours).
