In the crafting and survival game Nightingale, clothes serve a far greater purpose than simply covering you up and protecting you from the weather. Depending on the items you wear and the quality of them, your Realmwalker can be on the receiving end of some useful bonuses to boost your chances of surviving the Faewilds.
As you collect resources, build your base, and explore all that Nightingale has to offer, there will be a need to clothe your character in a higher-quality outfit to boost the amount of protection they have against the numerous threats you’ll encounter. In order to do this, you will need to know how to craft a Sewing Bench and become familiar with the steps involved in making clothes for your Realmwalker.

How to Make a Simple Sewing Bench in Nightingale
Before you can craft any new clothing and upgrade from the shoddy items you are wearing at the start of the game, you will first need to craft a Simple Sewing Bench. The bench, much like a Tanning Station, is a buildable component to your base that allows you to craft an assortment of clothing items from hats and gloves to shirts and pants. As you find cards and blueprints for new clothing items, you can bring them to the Sewing Bench to put them together.
While the Simple Sewing Bench is relatively easy to put together, you will need to grab the necessary components to craft it. To build one, you’ll need to collect 10 Wood Bundles, 15 Fiber (of any kind), and 1 Bone. Wood Bundles can be acquired by cutting down trees, fibers can be collected straight from small plants in the grounds, and bones are available on slain animals.
How to Make Clothes in Nightingale
Once you have a Sewing Bench constructed on your base, you will be able to access the list of available blueprints to create items of clothing. To make clothes, you will simply need to click on the item you wish to craft, put the ingredients in the relevant slots or click on autofill, and click on Craft or press R on your keyboard. The ingredients required will vary according to the item you want to put together, but most early-game outfits will require leather and plant fibers to create.
Once the items are crafted, they will either be added to your inventory automatically or can be picked up from the Sewing Bench. To equip your new items, simply go to your Inventory by pressing I on your keyboard and either click and drag the item to its relevant slot, or just double-click on the item, and it will be automatically assigned to the relevant slot. You will notice your character’s stats will differ once clothing has changed to reflect the boosts associated with the new item.
