In Red Dead Redemption, each of the nine possible outfits adds 0.5% to the overall game progress. As a result, unlocking all outfits will give you an additional 4.5% completion. In this guide, we will explain how to find and obtain the clothing necessary to complete the game 100%.
How to Get the U.S. Army Uniform
This uniform resembles the attire of U.S. Army soldiers in the game, but without the epaulettes on the sleeves, making it more versatile. However, collecting the entire uniform is not easy, as its parts are scattered across six different locations. Begin your journey in the Aurora Basin region by heading to the marked point on the map.
Upon arrival, you will find a cabin with a chest inside. Search it to get the first part of the outfit.
To get the next part of the outfit, win an arm-wrestling match. Head to the marked point on the map at the Pacific Union camp.
When you reach the table where the competition is taking place, you will need to defeat several opponents. Successfully completing this task will update the mission and grant you another piece of the outfit.
The next piece of clothing can be obtained by winning a poker game. Head to Blackwater to the marker on the map.
Besides you, there are four other people at the table; your task is to emerge as the winner.
The next piece of the uniform is obtained by completing the stranger mission Lights, Camera, Action. Next, you will need to complete a night watch job in Blackwater. You can work in this location only after completing Bonnie MacFarlane's mission New Friends, Old Problems.
Upon arrival, the policeman will give you the task of patrolling the town, leaving a dog as your partner. To the left of the building, you will see a person being robbed. You don't need to kill the robber; use the lasso and tie him up.
Follow the dog to find another offender. Repeat the same lasso actions.
The next troublemakers the dog will lead you to are two men who decided to fight in the street. Tie up both hooligans and hand over your shift to the policeman, receiving another piece of the uniform.
Getting the last part of the outfit is very simple. Head to the tailor in the town of Blackwater, following the marker on the map. There you can purchase the missing part for $100.
How to Get the U.S. Marshal Outfit
To obtain this outfit, you need to clear five American gang hideouts in New Austin within 24 in-game hours. This task will require a strategic approach and quick reflexes, but it’s worth it — your outfit will be a reward for your courage and determination. The outfit unlock will only be displayed after completing the mission And the Last Enemy Shall Be Destroyed. We strongly recommend completing all the missions related to the New Austin gangs first. This will help you better understand their behavior and structure, and also give you the opportunity to deal with them more effectively later. After that, you can simply return and eliminate the bandits without wasting time on additional tasks.
How to Get the Elegant Suit
The Elegant Suit consists of a dark gray blazer, a gray pinstriped vest with notched lapels, gold pocket watch with a chain on the vest, a white club-collar shirt, a pale purple patterned tie, and dark gray trousers. This outfit will become available for purchase as soon as the player first starts a poker game or enters the tailor's shop marked on the map.
The feature of the suit is a unique poker ability, allowing you to cheat by hiding an extra card of your choice. This not only adds an element of strategy to the game but also gives your character confidence at the poker table.
