Is there any way to salvage steel/leather without destroying the item?
If not, it's a bit of a bummer because it basically forces you to commit to specific gear, and if you want to try something else, you have to destroy it. This is not very conducive to experimentation, nor using different sets depending on the situation or fight...

Just replay story missions and pick up the leather and steel again. Or break down other gear you don’t need for the leather and steel
One of my issues with this game is way too much trash loot, so I wouldn't worry about it. Pretty soon everything you get will have + levels, and 99% of it can be salvaged for fragments, materials and rare embedments. The jewel frags can be sold for more than the gear btw, so just salvage all trash.
I favorite things I actually use, lock things I want to keep for later, and salvage everything else.
This is a non-issue, your given a abundance of fodder crap to salvage even before endgame. Just save the pieces you want to experiment with by locking them.
