When birch-bark is used in clothing its use is restricted to shoes, head-dresses and small pieces for spot protection or to be used as ornaments etc. This is because finished birch-bark equipment isn't very elastic and feels coarse against the skin.
More commonly birch-bark is used in making of various artifacts, knapsacks for example. Birch-bark garments give some protection against edge and tear attacks but for point or blunt strikes they are somewhat useless.
Birch-bark is a type of material, derived from birch trees. Birch-bark clothing and other items are derived from this material. Birch bark has been used since ancient times for various decorative and utilitarian purposes.
