Specific armor types (leather, chain, plate) etc, do not matter. However, there are modifiers that can be applied.
Strength requirement is the minimum Strength modifier you must have in order to wear the armor effectively. If you do not meet this modifier, you are encumbered while wearing the armor (disadvantage to all Str, Dex, and Con checks, -50% movement speed).
