Marked on the map above is a locked store room at the north end of Mirogana, in a an area controlled by Crimson Dawn. If you have good standing with Crimson Dawn in Star Wars Outlaws you can stroll straight in there, though make sure nobody sees you using Star Wars Outlaws lockpicking to open the door. Alternatively, if you look slightly to the south of it in the corner of the Market District, you'll find a vent Nix can open via a switch that will let you access the store room undetected. Once inside, lockpick the small crate on the floor to receive eight Coarseweave.

Star Wars Outlaws Ironweave is classed as an 'Expert key part', which means you'll need to purchase it from certain vendors. You won't just find it lying around as loot. Helpfully one of these vendors is in Mirogana, so visit the tailor Berek Keehro in Mirogana Market and you can purchase Ironweave from his stock. This will set you back 450 Credits, unless you have good reputation with the Pyke Syndicate to reduce the price, but it's worth investing in as soon as you can, so you have it ready to convert into the Armored Undershirt.
