Before I launch into talking about the Snow-Strider's Clothes, I just want to say something. When Cordovan first released images of 2022's Yule Festival rewards on a LOTRO live stream (see @druidsfire's tweet), I thought "these will suit the Small Folk". And I stand by that statement now.
The Snow-Strider's set is predominantly a practical outfit. When you go into the deep snow, you want to stay warm and dry. Hopefully, you don't consider how pretty other people may view your choice of outfit! And from that perspective alone, LOTRO have more than done the job.
Snow-Strider's Clothes Overview
From an outfit design perspective this covers your upper and lower body. But, unlike some past tunics, you can choose your own gloves and boots. This is a huge step forward in my opinion.
On the upper body, you have a long-sleeved, knitted top which is buttoned in a rather ornate pattern. Braces then join the top to the rough, leather-like material of the trousers.
Impressions from Other Characters
I think it really suits the Hobbits and Dwarf here. It seems to settle fine on the male Race of Man (which would include male Beornings) This outfit item worked less well on my female Race-of-Man character, in my own opinion. The top part feels overly "padded out", let's say.
But do bear in mind what I said earlier: this is a practical set above all else.
