Wouldn't it make more sense to have this be named ''Costumes in Tri-Force Heroes''? We could simply change the standard [[Costume]] page into a discombobulation page that links to articles that focus on clothing. Like the [[Hero's Clothes]], [[Costumes in Hyrule Warriors]], [[Engineer's Clothes]], [[Clothes]], and the various armors like the Magic Armor, Zora armor, and goron tunics and such. that way I figure we could be prepared in case there are more games that feature alt costumes in the future.<br>[[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] ([[User talk:Ixbran|talk]]) 01:54, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

:No, because this page is intended to be a general page for Costumes as a term in the series. That's why Hyrule Warriors gets a mention here. And we probably won't make a Costumes in Tri Force Heroes page either. Those might just get listed in the Items listing, along with this page. {{:User:The Goron Moron/sig}} 02:15, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

The Iron Boots can be found in the [[Ice Cavern]] near [[Zora's Fountain]]. When equipped, they make Link walk very slowly due to their extreme weight, but he can go at the bottom of lakes and other sources of water. Link must wear the [[Zora Tunic]] in order to stay underwater; otherwise, a timer will appear and, if he does not take off the boots and re-surface before time runs out, he will drown. They are required to traverse through the deep water in the [[Water Temple]], and are also useful in the [[Shadow Temple]], as they enable Link to walk against the fan currents.

In {{OoT3D}}, the Iron Boots were changed from equipment to an item, simplifying their use.

The Iron Boots are found inside a cave in the [[Ice Ring Isle]]. Link can use the Iron Boots to avoid being flown away by the wind, making them required for the [[Wind Temple]]. They also allow him to activate [[springboard]]s by wearing the boots and then taking them off. Additionally, wearing the Iron Boots and using the [[Hookshot]] on some statues allows Link to pull them down. Although the Iron Boots typically cause Link to sink to the bottom of water when wearing them, in ''The Wind Waker'' they will immediately un-equip when Link begins to swim.

The Iron Boots are an item assignable to X, Y, or Z, which makes taking them on and off a lot easier than in ''Ocarina of Time''.<ref>{{Cite|Set these heavy-duty boots to a button and press it to wear them.

===''Twilight Princess''===
 
[[File:Iron Boots TP.png|left|80px|Iron Boots as seen in game from ''Twilight Princess'']]
 
The Iron Boots are found in [[Mayor Bo]]'s house in [[Ordon Village]] after defeating him in a [[Sumo]] match. Similar to ''The Wind Waker'', they are an item assignable to specific buttons. They are used to ward off the [[Goron]]s on the way up [[Death Mountain]], and to defeat [[Gor Coron]]<ref>{{Cite|You got the Iron Boots! Wear these and you'll become so heavy, not even a Goron will be able to move you!|N/A|TP}}</ref> and [[Fyrus]].
 
 
The Iron Boots also allow Link to walk on magnetic roofs and walls in [[Goron Mines]]. They are also required to complete the [[Lakebed Temple]], as they allow Link to use [[Bomb#Water Bomb|Water Bombs]] while underwater.<ref>{{cite|You got water bombs! Use these bombs underwater, but not while swimming!|N/A|TP}}</ref> In the [[City in the Sky]], they can be used similarly to the Iron Boots in ''The Wind Waker'' to hold Link steady in strong gusts of wind. Link can also roll with them on and hurt enemies.

Name Change

Wouldn't it make more sense to have this be named Costumes in Tri-Force Heroes? We could simply change the standard Costume page into a discombobulation page that links to articles that focus on clothing. Like the Hero's Clothes, Costumes in Hyrule Warriors, Engineer's Clothes, Clothes, and the various armors like the Magic Armor, Zora armor, and goron tunics and such. that way I figure we could be prepared in case there are more games that feature alt costumes in the future.

No, because this page is intended to be a general page for Costumes as a term in the series. That's why Hyrule Warriors gets a mention here. And we probably won't make a Costumes in Tri Force Heroes page either. Those might just get listed in the Items listing, along with this page. - Midoro (T C) 02:15, 8 September 2015 (UTC)
Alrighty then, if this is supposed to be a general page, should we consider Merging other articles with it? Like the engineers clothes and the heroes clothes? No point in having all those smaller articles, when we can bring them here for the general page.
