This is a re-texture mod that aims to pay homage to Lara's more classic look including some booty shorts. Its a simple re-texture of the desert tanktop outfit pants. So its not perfect but it is as good as I can do. However if this mod gets positive feedback I will be more than happy to give it some more time in the oven or even make a new one for a different outfit. Also the texture used to be pants so there is a little flap where the pocket used to be, if it's too much of an eye sore than I included a version that has a patch/pocket to cover up the flaps.

If you are unsure what Special K is, you'll find plenty of tutorials online on how to install it for SOTTR ex: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7CEaCR2YuA4&t=49s
Settings you need to make sure are accurate:
Direct X 12 needs to be turned off
Texture quality needs to be set to ULTRA
You'll need to have unlocked the desert tank top outfit
Steps for install:
Simply place the files into special k's inject textures directory usually it is found here:
Shadow Of The Tomb Raider\SK_Res\inject\textures
Once again all you need is Special K, the right settings that are listed above, and a image editor like gimp or Photoshop that has a DDS plugin. I use the Intel Texture Tools plugin for photoshop to do my DDS editing, it can be found here http://gametechdev.github.io/Intel-Texture-Works-Plugin/ I have made a video tutorial on how to get the texture from the game, edit them, and inject them after. It is made assuming that you have some experience downloading mods from the nexus and using them in game, and assumes you already have special k installed.
Please check out his mod of the matching tank top for these pants, it compliments this one very well, warning NSFW
