1/5

Lupine Robe appears on the Wondrous Items section in Inner Sea Races, which begins with:

Inner Sea Races pg. 228 wrote:
The following wondrous items are generally available only to members of the indicated race or ethnicity

However, at the end of the item's description it states:

Inner Sea Races pg. 233 wrote:
If the wearer is a kitsune, he can spend two of the robe’s daily uses to add 1d10 on a skill check instead of 1d6

Can a human or any other race purchase such item in PFS?. My halfling sure could use one.

Thanks in advance!

Kitsune only.

But they could lend it do you (but then you would have a naked kitsune...)

From the additional resources:

Racial magic items can be purchased and used by any race.

Huh.

Which book is it that has the race restrictions. Adanced race guide?

Awesome catch! For whatever reason it didn't occur to me to look first into additional resources.

The book with the race restrictions is Inner Sea Races.

Thank you both!

Huh.

Does that mean my Vanaran can wear Daredevil Softpaws for a free extra +1 to hit compared to the regular Daredevil Boots?

They specify the catfolk wearing them may.... so i would say no (or at least more no table variation than I'd want for PFS)

The part I quoted was from Inner Sea Races. The Softpaw Boots are from the Advanced Race Guide, which has slightly different sanctioning text attached to it, which is why it's good to assume that racial equipment isn't available outside the race by default:

Additional Resources for the Advanced Race Guide wrote:
Note: Alternate racial traits, racial archetypes, racial evolutions, racial feats, and racial spells are only available for characters of the associated race. Racial equipment and magic items can be purchased and used by any race as long as the specific item permits it (for example, only halflings can purchase and use solidsmoke pipeweed).

Looking in the ARG, for mundane equipment it does say that "Catfolk have access to..." but it doesn't have the line they sometimes use: "At the GM's discretion, other appropriate races may also make use of some of these." On top of that, the item description seems to specifically work only for catfolk like BNW pointed out. The magic item section reads "The following magic items are often created and used by catfolk."

I agree with the wolf: I think softpaw boots and the daredevil softpaws are a no-go for a vanara.
