Would you rather take Leather or Gold armour?
You can make limitless amounts of leather armour by killing a bunch of cows, but has a lower level of armour than gold. Gold can sometimes be hard to come by.
There is no good reason to pick leather in a choice between the two.
Gold: More durable, more enchantable, and you quickly have way more than you need lying around.
Leather: weak, relatively difficult to obtain efficiently (Cows frequently don't even drop 1), very bad enchanting, and soon leather will be needed for books.
It was annoying to make full leather before, it will be impossible with 1.3 if you want to have any books/bookshelves.
Gold, I never use Leather unless I'm playing a custom map.
Iron is so easy to come by and it usually found within the first 20 minutes of searching around if that.

leather, reason in survival games leather armor is more common than gold in chests
also with a looting sword and a good cow farm its MUCH more easier to obtain than gold
also fortune picks don't work on gold so there you go leather ftw!
I'd rather go buff then either gold or leather. Although sometimes I do get a hankering for a nice pair of leather boots. I mean who wouldn't want nice leather shoes?

Which do you choose?
I am ninja'd far too often.
Stronger, very enchantable. Plus, gives me a reason to use it.
I'm not a fan of either one, just because iron armor is more common than gold and is stronger than each of them.
I said this. Two days later, my computer's motherboard melted down and I had to get a new one with Windows 8.
Irony in the first degree.
When I first started playing, I thought Gold was better than Diamond.

Yeah but defiantly Iron for sure.
Neither..... I always go straight for iron. Every time.

I wouldn't waste my Gold on armor. It gets destroyed too quick and I always need it for powered rails.
Just save up enough Iron to make iron armor which is way better than either of those, and actually easier to obtain.
