Week 1 - Dec. 7, 2015 - Expedition Outfit - "Lara prepares for her perilous journey knowing she will have to brave extreme weather situations. The water resistant, goose down, box wall construction expedition jacket provides warmth and maneuverability for the long road ahead, and features a black and white circular patch on the left arm. The red color provides a color contrast to an otherwise cool landscape. She completes the look with boot covers (gaiters), crampons, a climbing harness, ice screws, a climbing leash, a grey beanie, snow goggles, and her twin ice axes." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 2 - Dec. 14, 2015 - Desert Tank Top - "As a key part of her layering, Lara wears this ribbed grey tank top with built in support and slim fit to keep her agile and comfortable in warmer climates. The dark material balances well with her lighter value pants and the leather strap of her holster, a drop leg design that sits on her hips and keeps the tank comfortably in place." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 3 - Dec. 21, 2015 - Leather Jacket - "Lara's leather jacket is a balance of style and warmth. The short cut and rugged leather keeps her protected from elements and acts as an outer shell with lighter layers underneath. Leather has a great material contrast to the dark denim, and the grey cotton hoodie provides a bit of anonymity when needed." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 4 - Dec. 28, 2015 - Gray Henley - "The three-button ribbed Henley is a perfect layering option for the cold weather scenarios that Lara faces. It is light but long-sleeved for extra warmth, paired with her tan pants and leather holster worn at the hips. Her Desert Tank Top is worn underneath the Henley, and various jackets can be easily layered on top." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 5 - Jan. 4, 2016 - Huntress - "Lara's huntress outfit uses the surrounding ecosystem to protect against the cold weather, and enable her to blend into the valley forest. Layers of Red Deer hide are hand-stitched together to create a tunic that drapes into organic cuts below her holster straps. Her boots use the longer, thicker fur from the tail of the Red Deer, fashioned into moccasins for deep snow traversal. Bone toggles keep the asymmetrical tunic flap fastened, and a patterned sash provides a base for the leather belt to rest on. A dark forest green variation of her cargo pants and leather fingerless gloves polish off the outfit." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 6 - Jan. 11, 2016 - Apex Predator - "The Apex Predator outfit salvages elements from the native bears Lara encounters in the harsh Siberian landscape. Dark fur contrasts with red accents in the waist sash and leg band, reflecting the violent altercations between Lara and predatory wildlife. The claws of the bear dangle around her neck as both a sign of victory and a warning to any who oppose her. She ritualistically displays the blood of the hunt on her face to intimidate enemies. A two-buckle heeled boot is wrapped with leathers, topped with fur for extra warmth. Apex Predator represents Lara at her most savage." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 7 - Jan. 18, 2016 - Sparrowhawk - "Comprised of furs from animals indigenous to the Siberian wilderness, Lara's Sparrowhawk outfit aims to blend in rather than stand out. The tunic is stitched by hand from sun-bleached red deer hide, falling in organic cuts below her holster straps. The blue accents complement the cream and brown garments, replicating the tones of a cold and forested environment. The rabbit fur hat with ear flaps provides extra insulation, layered over a scarf circling both her head and neck. A two-buckled heeled boot is wrapped with leathers and rabbit fur, worn on top of a dark brown variation of Lara's cargo pants." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 8 - Jan. 25, 2016 - Pioneer - "Inspired by Sir Edmund Hilary and the men who braved the treacherous terrain to summit K2, Lara is equipped with vintage climbing gear from the golden age of mountaineering. Specially designed for Rise of the Tomb Raider's Endurance Mode, she's outfitted with a quilted down high-altitude jacket in yellow to contrast with bleak mountain landscapes. Wool insulated pants and cloth boot wraps conserve warmth, as do the scarf, leather climbing cap, and gloves. Vintage crampons keep Lara on her feet, and the oxygen mask, climbing goggles, shoulder harness, and mountaineering rope work in tandem to prepare her for any expedition." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 9 - Feb. 1, 2016 - Spirit Weaver - "Sun-bleached deer hide is stitched together for this look, layered over the top of a deep red, long-sleeve tunic. The gold accents and intricate bracer are inspired by traditional Byzantine designs, also mirrored on the ornate trim on the hem of her shirt. Weathered leather straps circle Lara's midsection to keep chain mail in place, and are also used to secure a simple hide holster on her hip. Leather pants and boot covers finish off the outfit, with rabbit fur accents added for extra warmth." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 10 - Feb. 8, 2016 - Infiltrator - "A tactical ensemble crafted from Trinity gear, the Infiltrator outfit is well suited for forest environments, with camouflage pants and a long sleeve quilted crewneck shirt with cargo pocket. A bulletproof Kevlar vest and knee pads provide extra protection, topped off with fingerless gloves and a black and white tasseled scarf. Black leather tactical boots help Lara keep her footing on tough terrain, and the climbing rope and carabineers aid her in rock traversal. A ballistic nylon gun holster and extra ammo pouches complete the look, ensuring Lara’s prepared for a variety of combat scenarios." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director

Week 11 - Feb. 16, 2016 - Shadowrunner - "Ideal for situations requiring stealth, the Shadowrunner outfit utilizes dark tone tactical equipment to help Lara blend into her environments. For quick traversal through enemy territory, a rope rig and simple climbing carabineers attach at the waist. When low to the ground Lara relies on high density double loop knee pads and black leather boots to keep her steady and agile. To provide extra protection and storage, she dons a tactical collared polyester mesh constructed vest with ammo pouches. For easy access during unavoidable combat, a pistol can be safely secured in the thermoplastic molded, double strap leg holster. A black knit hat and reinforced leather combat gloves finish the look, providing extra warmth for when stakeouts drag on during the harsh Siberian winters." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 12 - Feb. 22, 2016 - Commando - "The Commando outfit offers Lara a flexible and lightweight approach to combat in the Siberian Wilderness.

Reinforced fingerless gloves give extra grip for traversal, and the hardened knuckles pack a punch in combat." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 13 - Feb. 29, 2016 - Nightshade - "Hand-stitched leather bleached in the sun makes up the bulk of the Nightshade outfit, with a wolf-fur stole draped over the shoulders for extra warmth.

Leather and fur wrapped boots ensure pelt scraps are put to good use, layered over the top of gray trousers. Rounding out the look, Lara’s iconic red climbing axes are swapped for ancient Byzantine blades in this ensemble." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 14 - Mar. 7, 2016 - Siberian Ranger - "The Siberian Ranger outfit offers Lara the ability to store surplus special ammunition. Ballistic nylon gun pouches attach to her bulletproof Kevlar vest, which provides protection in combat scenarios. Leather gloves, boots and black knee pads provide extra durability when trekking through rough terrain, whether on solid ground, high up in the trees, or along the cliffs of the Siberian Wilderness. To stay warm in cold climates, Lara wears a knit long sleeve shirt underneath to retain body heat. When assembled together, this gear creates a combination fit for only the most strategic Tomb Raiding experience." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 15 - Mar. 14, 2016 - Battle Worn - "The Battle Worn outfit is a twist on Lara's Remnant ensemble. Her black cargo pants, boots, and scarf compliment the light grey camouflage jacket, allowing her to blend in with a cold forest environment.

A matching black holster drops from one hip, with black leather cording wrapped around Lara’s waist and arms to cinch in the over-sized jacket." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 16 - Mar. 21, 2016 - Sacra Umbra - "A fan favorite, the Sacra Umbra outfit is an ancient Byzantine suit of armor forged from dark steel. A green patina has appeared over time, contrasting Remnant symbols etched in gold. Worn leather straps hold the gun holster in place, secured with ornate gold buckles. Panels of tattered chainmail are layered over a thick padded underskirt, both providing extra protection in close-range combat. Brown leather pants made of deer hide, brown leather boots, and wolf fur accents complete the look." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 17 - Mar. 28, 2016 - Immortal Guardian - "The Immortal Guardian outfit reduces Lara's damage from Greek fire utilizing a combination of torn chainmail and ancient Byzantine armor for protection. Remnant symbols are etched onto the armor and adorn the thick fabric underskirt and buttons. As a base layer, Lara wears a red knitted fabric long-sleeve shirt and boot wraps. Salvaged bear pelts are repurposed into a fur tunic, skirt and boot accents to keep warm. Combined with brown leather pants and boots, and gloves made of deer hide, this ensemble prepares adventurers for traversing through rough terrain.

For added protection, a thick padded fabric underskirt adorned with gold Remnant symbols and buttons is worn underneath. Gold leaf gauntlets made of forged steel with etched Remnant symbols guard her wrists, along with worn leather straps and a gun holster with gold buckles which hold gear in place.

As a base layer, Lara wears a grey linen long-sleeve undershirt paired with tan cargo pants. For added warmth at high altitudes and in snowy tundra, a 1930's leather aviator jacket with a wool lining cinches at the waist for added insulation. A red silk scarf adds a pop of color while a brown leather holster, gloves and 1920's knee high boots round out the look." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 20 - May 2, 2016 - Jonah Maiava - "Jonah accompanies Lara on her trek through the icy wilds of Siberia in Rise of the Tomb Raider. To prepare for this journey he dresses for arctic conditions with a blue high altitude weatherproof climbing jacket and fleece insert, paired with a grey linen long-sleeve turtleneck.

Ancient Byzantine silver leaf gauntlets made of forged steel with etched Remnant symbols provide extra shielding. To guard against close range attacks, Lara wears a thick padded fabric underskirt with stitched Remnant symbols and buttons.

A fur collar and lining on the jacket and a red linen scarf provide extra insulation. Black military heavy cotton cargo pants, leather winter gloves, and Russian army combat boots are worn on her lower half.

Her hair bands, buckles, and bracer are made of gold and etched with Byzantine symbols. Brown leather straps and belts rest along her waist, above a sleeveless deer leather armor and chain mail skirt.

Atop the skull is a piece of bear fur that drapes over the back of Lara's neck. A two tone, sleeveless stitch patchwork leather tunic with hood matches asymmetrical leather arm gauntlets and bear claw finger extensions. Layered skirting stays in place with a leather waist wrap threaded through hanging human skulls sawed off at the lower rear section of the cranium. Bound bear fur moccasins cover her feet.

Week 25 - June 6, 2016 - Jacob - "Jacob meets Lara during her search for the Divine Source in Rise of the Tomb Raider. As the spiritual leader and healer of the Remnant, his wardrobe reflects his largely ascetic lifestyle with simple garb and neutral tones. He wears a double button, brown ribbed sweater beneath a tattered single breasted long blue wool coat. A cream cotton scarf circles his neck for warmth. Wool quilted, drawstring pants tuck into leather leg wraps bound with matching leather cord. Brown heeled boots cover his feet, allowing for easy traversal between Remnant outposts." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 26 - June 20, 2016 - Wraithskin - "The Wraithskin outfit comes paired with the Dreamstinger Bow and is available after Lara ventures through the Wicked Vale in Baba Yaga: The Temple of the Witch. Featuring a headpiece made from modified bear skull and sheep horns, the outfit strikes terror into the hearts of enemies and increases the duration of poison arrow clouds. Atop the skull is a piece of bear fur that drapes over the back of Lara's neck. A two tone, sleeveless stitch patchwork leather tunic with hood matches asymmetrical leather arm gauntlets and bear claw finger extensions. Layered skirting stays in place with a leather waist wrap threaded through hanging human skulls sawed off at the lower rear section of the cranium. Bound bear fur moccasins cover her feet. The Dreamstinger Bow is crafted out of smooth Manzanita wood, a leather grip with feather cluster accents and a bone vertebrae bow arm reinforcement. At the ends, the lower jaw of the bear splits into matching covers, with metal grommets to provide strength and stability reinforcement." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
Week 27 - July 11, 2016 - Ana - "An old friend of the Croft family, Ana expresses concerns for Lara upon witnessing her obsessive pursuit for answers in Rise of the Tomb Raider. Ana wears a long grey linen peacoat fitted with enlarged button closures to insulate heat in the brisk winters. A black knit scarf layers around her neck for added warmth. Black jeans are worn below paired with heeled calf high leather boots." - Brenoch Adams, Art Director
