| − | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda (Game)|The Legend of Zelda]]'', Link mainly wore a green tunic that neither enhanced or hindered his abilities. Optionally, Link could also acquire the [[Blue Ring]] or the [[Red Ring]], which would change his tunic's color and enhance his defensive abilities. |

Each type of clothing has a similar style despite varying in color and name: a long shirt that reaches above the knee, having short or no sleeves. |

| − | [[File:Link Blue.gif|left|25px]]The Blue Ring is hidden in a secret shop somewhere in the overworld of [[Hyrule]], where a shopkeeper will sell it for 250 [[Rupee]]s. By purchasing this ring, Link's tunic would be turned into a very light lavender or periwinkle color and would allow him to take a little less damage when hit by enemies. |

| − | [[File:Link Red.gif|left|25px]]The Red Ring, which is also optional, is the [[dungeon item]] of the [[Death Mountain Labyrinth]]. It turns Link's tunic into red and further increases his defense, making him more defensive than he would be if he had the Blue Ring. |

It is a simple leaf-green tunic that enables no special abilities. However, its one strength is that [[Like Like]] will not steal Link's tunic if he is wearing this. As such, if a Like Like manages to swallow Link with another tunic, it is best to quickly swap out a special tunic for this one until the attack finishes, or Link will have to kill the Like Like to get it back or have to buy another one. |

| − | The '''Goron Tunic''', sometimes known as the red tunic, is one of the few articles of clothing worn by [[Link]] besides that of his usual green outfit. It is visually identical to the green version except that it is red, and it can only be worn while Link is an adult. This tunic can be stolen if grabbed by a [[Like Like]], if Link is still wearing it when he gets spit out. If the Like Like is not immediately slain, the tunic will need to be repurchased. |
||
| + | In {{TFH}}, the [[Links]] can wear various [[Outfit]]s which grant them different powers and abilities depending on the Outfit worn, such as throwing large [[Bomb]]s or finding [[Heart]]s more frequently. Outfits are crafted at [[Madame Couture's]] using a recipe of [[Material]]s found in Levels and a certain amount of Rupees. |
||
| − | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', this tunic helps absorb extreme heat. It is able to do this due to the fact that it is made from [[Dodongo]] scales from which the lava-dwelling creatures are made heat-resistant, and [[Bomb Flower]] fibers.<ref>{{Cite web|quote=Fashioned from a sporty blend of Dodongo hide and Bomb Flower fibers, the Goron Tunic allowed Link to survive the intense heat generated within Death Mountain Crater.|url= http://www.zelda.com/universe/pedia/g.jsp|title= The Great Hyrule Encyclopedia|site=Zelda.com| type=jsp}}</ref> It is the essential uniform when exploring places such as the [[Death Mountain Crater]], an otherwise deadly habitat. While it is best known for its accessibility, the tunic also offers some heightened protection. While wearing this, Link will no longer burn from fire-based traps and attacks, and Link can safely walk on lava tiles, poison water and even floor spikes for a short period of time (if Link performs Z-Target jumps within certain intervals, he is also virtually invincible from them). It is seen by many players as the tunic of choice for the game due to its unique versatility. It can be bought by [[Link]] at the [[Goron]] Shop for 200 rupees, or more sensibly be received as a gift from [[Link (Goron)|Darunia's son]] (who is named after [[Link]]). |

It is visually identical to the green version except that it is blue, and it can only be worn while Link is an adult. This tunic can also be stolen by Like Likes. |
||
| + | In {{BotW}}, Link has a number of different types of clothing known as [[Armor]] which all have special abilities, such as a [[Warm Doublet]] that protects Link from taking damage from the cold. |
||
| − | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', the tunic allows the wearer to breathe underwater. While it is almost functionally useless by itself, it must be used in conjunction with the [[Iron Boots]] for this ability to really be brought out. The pair renders large undersea areas accessible and traversable, although at a slow speed. Unlike the Goron Tunic, it does not offer any mild defense bonuses; it does not reduce frost damage, only disables the timer seen underwater. It can be bought by Link at the [[Zora Shop]] for 300 [[rupee]]s, or it can be given to him by [[King Zora]] when Link helps him to thaw out using the [[Blue Fire]]. |

||
| + | In some games, Link does not start out with his traditional Green Clothes. Games such as {{TP}} and {{ST}} feature the young hero wearing clothes that are typical to his homeplace, such as the [[Ordonian Outfit]] and the [[Engineer's Clothes]], respectively. Like the Green Clothes, these do not give Link any new abilities or an enhanced defense. |

| + | ==={{SSB|-}} series=== |
||
| + | In the {{SSBS}}, playable characters can wear differently colored outfits or skins, called {{Ssb|alternate costume}}s, or color changes. These are usually recolors of a character's appearance, intended to distinguish between players using the same character. Like all other characters, Link, [[Young Link]], and [[Toon Link]] can wear different alternate costumes in their respective appearances. |
||
| + | In {{SSB}}, Link can wear the Kokiri, Goron, and Zora tunics, as well as a lavender tunic. |
||
| − | ==''Four Sword'' series== |
||
| − | In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords|Four Swords]]'' as well as ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Sword Adventures|Four Sword Adventures]]'', Link splits into four equal persona due to the [[Four Sword]]. Doing so allows Link to sport his traditional Green Tunic as well as a Red, Blue, and Purple Tunic. The colors in the game help players determine which Link they are controlling rather than give Link an ability. |
||
| + | In {{SSBM}}, both Link and Young Link can wear the Kokiri, Goron, and Zora tunics, as well as a white and a black tunic. |

||
| − | ===Hero's Clothes=== |
||
| − | [[File:Hero's Clothes.png|left|80px]] |
||
| − | Link receives this set of clothes very early on in his adventure in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker|The Wind Waker]]''. It was customary for the young boys of [[Outset Island]] to don a green tunic in honor of the Hero of Time upon reaching a certain age. They were especially made for Link by his Grandma for his birthday and were designed and suited to look like the Hero of Time. As Link wears these, many people will come to realize a feeling of nostalgia and mistake him for the Hero of Time, while others think the outfit is old-fashioned. |
||
| − | {{clear}} |
||
| + | In {{SSBB}}, Link can wear the Kokiri, Goron, and Zora tunics, as well as a white and a golden tunic. He can also wear black clothing resembling the [[Dark Interlopers]] from {{TP}}. Toon Link can wear green, red, blue, and violet tunics resembling the [[Links]]. He can also wear a tunic resembling the Dark Interlopers, and one resembling Link from {{TLoZ}}, even changing his hair to a brownish color. |

||
| − | {{Main|Hero's New Clothes}} |
||
| − | After finishing the game once, the player can start a new file. The new file is the same as a new game except that it carries over figures, [[Aryll]] wears her second choice of clothing the entire time, Hylian text boxes are translated for the player, the player begins with the Color Pictobox, and the Hero's New Clothes are given instead of the original Hero's Clothes. Link's grandmother states that it is made with a special fabric that only the honest can see, so they are "invisible" (Link apparently does not see them). He puts the outfit over his old one, and the game can be played in the clothing that Link started with. Some of the NPC text is changed to reflect which version of the outfit they see, with some surprising results. In the ending, they become Hero's Clothes, suggesting he is finally worthy of wearing the attire of the Hero of Time.{{fact}} In [[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass|Phantom Hourglass]], the set returns as a trade item. |
||
| + | In {{SSB4}}, Link can wear the Kokiri, Goron, Zora, violet, golden, and Dark Interloper tunics, as well as a tunic resembling his [[Skyloft]] clothes from {{SS}}, and a tunic resembling the [[Fierce Deity Link]]. Toon Link can wear green, red, blue, violet, and lavender tunics, as well as the previous tunics resembling Link from ''The Legend of Zelda'' and the Dark Interlopers. He can also wear a tunic that resembles pre-release artwork of Link from {{TWW}}, with brown sleeves instead of green. |

If he uses [[Oracle Charms#Din's Charm|Din's charm]], he will become red and obtain an offensive bonus. When he uses the [[Oracle Charms#Farore's Charm|Farore's charm]], his tunic becomes purple and he gets a offense/defense bonus but in a lower dose of the separate bonuses. |
||

+ | ==={{SCII|-}}=== |
| + | In {{SCII}}, Link's choice of tunics is similar to that of the {{SSB|-}} series; however, he only starts off with the Green and Red Tunic. To obtain the Blue Tunic, the player must buy it in the Castor Shop for 21,000 Gold, found in the Extra Chapter 1 of the Weapon Master mode. Only after buying the Blue Tunic can the player buy the [[Blue Ring]] Tunic from the original {{TLoZ}}, which is sold for the same price as the Blue Tunic. |
||
| − | Using any of the Oracle's charms inside [[Mama's Cafe]], will turn Link's tunic orange. His skin will turn grey and eyes orange-red. This only lasts while inside of the Cafe. Some fans consider this a version of [[Dark Link]]. |

| − | ===Ordonian Outfit=== |
||
| − | In the early portion of the game, Link wears the standard clothes of the Ordonians of [[Ordon Village]]. Most males of the village wear a variation of this garb. There is nothing special about this outfit as it does not grant Link any extra abilities. Once the Hero's Clothes are obtained, Link will not be seen wearing these clothes again, with a few exceptions. When [[sumo]] wrestling with [[Mayor Bo]], Link wears the trousers from this outfit, and it also appears in various cutscenes. This is the only outfit of ''Twilight Princess'' that does not include a hat. |

Faron notes that the Legendary Hero once wore these clothes, a treasure kept by the Light Spirits, and that it was only fitting that Link don the clothes as well, as his successor. The Hero's Clothes also possess some visual differences from past incarnations. It is similar to what is worn in ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|Ocarina of Time]]'', but with some add-ons. Underneath the green is a chainmail shirt. It also possesses two small pouches attached to the belt and looks much more materialistic. The fabric of the tunic and hat has stitches and seams, unlike the seamless formation of all previous tunics, and the boots and undergarments of the tunic have things such as buckles, small holes, and other indications of wear-and-tear and hurried craftwork. |

The Armor allows Link to breathe underwater as long as he is wearing it and allows him to swim faster underwater, functioning similarly to the swimming aspect of the [[Zora Mask]] of ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|Majora's Mask]]''. With the combination of the [[Iron Boots]], Link can also safely walk on the ocean floor. |

The Magic Armor will consume rupees until he is out, at which time the effect wears off. Without rupees, the armor impedes movement and turns a gray-blue color, and if hit without [[Rupee]]s, Link will lose health normally. |
||

||
| − | Interestingly enough, if the [[Iron Boots]] are equipped once Link runs out of Rupees while wearing the Magic Armor, his speed will not change. |

Though it is called Recruit's Uniform upon obtaining, it is referred to as the Hero's Clothes on the Status Screen. It is given to him by Princess Zelda so that he can disguise himself and be able to pass by the guards unnoticed as the two escape from [[Hyrule Castle]]. It serves as a replacement to the Engineer's Clothes, but Link can switch back into the [[Engineer's Clothes]] later on in the game when he obtains 15 of the 20 stamps in [[Niko]]'s [[Stamp Book]]. |

| − | In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Link has six tunics available to him: the Kokiri, Goron, Zora, the white tunic, and features a new golden tunic. The sixth option is a full color-scheme change that causes Link to resemble [[Dark Link]]. Toon Link features a similar set. In addition to the green, red, blue, violet and dark ones, the sixth one gives him his color scheme from the first game, even changing his hair to a more brownish color. The Toon Link dark color is most likely based on [[Dark Link|Shadow Link]] from ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures|Four Swords Adventures]]''. |

Link wearing his traditional Green Tunic
Clothes are worn by Link throughout The Legend of Zelda series.[1] For the majority of each game, Link wears the iconic Green Tunic, although he can sometimes obtain new types of clothes that grant new abilities, such as breathing underwater or decreasing the damage received from enemies. Each type of clothing has a similar style despite varying in color and name: a long shirt that reaches above the knee, having short or no sleeves.
Types of Clothes
Green Clothes
Main article: Green Clothes
The Green Clothes is the default type of clothing worn by Link throughout the majority of each of his adventures, and because of this, it has become a symbol of the hero who saved Hyrule from evil.[2][3] Unlike the other types of clothes, it does not grant the young hero any abilities. In some games, such as Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword, Link wears a chain mail underneath it to further protect himself.
Defense-Enhancement Clothes
First introduced in The Legend of Zelda as the Blue Ring and Red Ring, the Blue Mail and Red Mail increase Link's defense, cutting the damage he receives from enemies by one-half and one-quarter, respectively.[4][5]
Special Ability Clothes
Certain types of clothes provide Link with special abilities. In Link's Awakening DX, the Red Clothes double the attack damage of Link's sword. The Zora Tunic and Zora Armor grants the young hero the ability to breathe underwater,[6] while the Goron Tunic permits him to resist extremely high temperatures.[7] In Twilight Princess, the Magic Armor allows Link to lose Rupees instead of Hearts when he is hit by an enemy.[8]
In Tri Force Heroes, the Links can wear various Outfits which grant them different powers and abilities depending on the Outfit worn, such as throwing large Bombs or finding Hearts more frequently. Outfits are crafted at Madame Couture's using a recipe of Materials found in Levels and a certain amount of Rupees.
In Breath of the Wild, Link has a number of different types of clothing known as Armor which all have special abilities, such as a Warm Doublet that protects Link from taking damage from the cold.
Others
In some games, Link does not start out with his traditional Green Clothes. Games such as Twilight Princess and Spirit Tracks feature the young hero wearing clothes that are typical to his homeplace, such as the Ordonian Outfit and the Engineer's Clothes, respectively. Like the Green Clothes, these do not give Link any new abilities or an enhanced defense.
Other Appearances
Super Smash Bros. series
In the Super Smash Bros. series, playable characters can wear differently colored outfits or skins, called alternate costumes, or color changes. These are usually recolors of a character's appearance, intended to distinguish between players using the same character. Like all other characters, Link, Young Link, and Toon Link can wear different alternate costumes in their respective appearances.
In Super Smash Bros., Link can wear the Kokiri, Goron, and Zora tunics, as well as a lavender tunic.
In Super Smash Bros. Melee, both Link and Young Link can wear the Kokiri, Goron, and Zora tunics, as well as a white and a black tunic.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Link can wear the Kokiri, Goron, and Zora tunics, as well as a white and a golden tunic. He can also wear black clothing resembling the Dark Interlopers from Twilight Princess. Toon Link can wear green, red, blue, and violet tunics resembling the Links. He can also wear a tunic resembling the Dark Interlopers, and one resembling Link from The Legend of Zelda, even changing his hair to a brownish color.
In Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U, Link can wear the Kokiri, Goron, Zora, violet, golden, and Dark Interloper tunics, as well as a tunic resembling his Skyloft clothes from Skyward Sword, and a tunic resembling the Fierce Deity Link. Toon Link can wear green, red, blue, violet, and lavender tunics, as well as the previous tunics resembling Link from The Legend of Zelda and the Dark Interlopers. He can also wear a tunic that resembles pre-release artwork of Link from The Wind Waker, with brown sleeves instead of green.
In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, half of Link's outfits are based on the Champion's Tunic and the other are based on the Tunic of the Wild.
SoulCalibur II
In SoulCalibur II, Link's choice of tunics is similar to that of the Super Smash Bros. series; however, he only starts off with the Green and Red Tunic. To obtain the Blue Tunic, the player must buy it in the Castor Shop for 21,000 Gold, found in the Extra Chapter 1 of the Weapon Master mode. Only after buying the Blue Tunic can the player buy the Blue Ring Tunic from the original The Legend of Zelda, which is sold for the same price as the Blue Tunic.
Hyrule Warriors
Main article: Costume
In Hyrule Warriors, playable Warriors can wear different skins called Costumes. These are usually recolors of their existing outfit, although some Costumes feature entirely new outfits. Costumes can be unlocked through Adventure Mode. Some Costumes are only available by purchasing DLC packs.
Trivia
- In The Legend of Zelda, the color of both Princess Zelda's dress and the clothing on merchants will change depending on which ring Link is wearing (if he has one; default is green).
