Minecraft is an interesting and very exciting game in which we can install mods, textures and, most importantly, skins. The skin is from the original (skin) leather or appearance character. In minecraft, a skin is the entire appearance from the character’s face and skin color, to textures and clothing. From human animal skins to terrifying creatures.

Sooner or later, any player leaves the single player game for multiplayer and starts playing with other players. But in the game, as in life, people are greeted by their clothes, and if a player wears a standard skin, he will be treated as a noob and an inexperienced player.

Most often, our users want to find a skin of the right size. Why are skins different sizes? - you ask, the answer is very simple: before Minecraft version 1.8, skins were in size, and starting from version 1.8, skins are in size. Why has the size increased? - everything is simple, compared to the previous version, the new version added a helmet, armor, and cloaks - they did not fit into the 64x32 texture and therefore the size had to be increased to 64x64. You have now selected skins size:
