Varsity Shoes ★

Taken all the way down to base materials, one Varsity Shoes is 2 crafting steps deep and needs 1 intermediate — Ophiotauros Leather ×2 — which resolves to 3 distinct raw materials totalling 11 units, plus 22 crystals.

That bill outweighs 5,999 of the 13,602 recipes tracked here and 724 of the 1,844 Leatherworker ones, and 4,464 recipes nest deeper.

Only 6 of those crystals go into the final step; the other 16 are burned by the intermediates, so the real crystal cost is 16 Earth Crystal, 3 Earth Cluster and 3 Wind Cluster.

Every step is Leatherworker work, from a Lv 88 intermediate up to the Lv 90 finish, so one class covers the whole chain.

1 of the 3 raw materials matches a gathering node, none of them timed; the other 2 come from vendors, drops or content this site does not track.

Of the intermediates, Ophiotauros Leather has the widest use: 153 recipes call for it, spanning seven of the eight crafting classes.
