'Cover' has multiple Leather meanings — including headwear worn as part of Leather uniform and, in some usages, a protective role. This article treats the primary Leather sense in context.

A cover carries specific meaning within Leather tradition. Its style, condition and manner of wearing may indicate participation in the community, membership of a club, or a title held. Etiquette around whose cover may be touched, and when it is worn or removed, varies by lineage and by local custom.
