Description

After the update for clothing thicknesses, some clothing items were left with inaccurate descriptions and possibly too-much encumbrance for their actual thicknesses.

Steps To Reproduce

For instance, a jean jacket is described as being good against cuts, which is out of date.

Expected behavior

Correct descriptions and ideally reconsidered encumbrances.
