Armor (防具 Bōgu?) is an item type found in Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts III. It can be equipped to characters to improve their defense in a number of ways, replacing part of the function of accessories from the first game.

The main purpose of armor is to improve the defensive powers of the characters. In addition to providing a basic defense bonus, many pieces of armor also provide specific defense bonuses against one or more kinds of elemental Magic, such as Fire, Blizzard, Thunder, and Darkness. From Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix onward, certain armors grant additional special abilities when equipped.

Obtaining Armors[edit]

Kingdom Hearts II[edit]

Most of the weaker armor can be purchased early on in the game during the first time through the Moogle shops in the worlds of Twilight Town, the Land of Dragons, Disney Castle, and Agrabah. Later in the game, during the second round through each world, the more powerful armor must be synthesized through Free Development. Three pieces of armor, Gaia Belt, Cosmic Chain, and Cosmic Belt, are found in chests throughout the game. The Protect Belt is the only armor that can be won through completing certain events.

Roxas's available armor, the Champion Belt and the Elven Bandanna, are both found in unusual ways, given Roxas cannot buy armors or synthesize them. Champion Belt is only available if Roxas wins the Struggle tournament, but is not granted if he loses. Elven Bandana is one of the few armors with the privilege of being found in a chest during the game.

Kingdom Hearts III[edit]

Armors can be obtained in various ways. Some are found in treasure chests, like the Shield Belt. Others can be bought in the Moogle Shop, such as the Fire Bangle. The best, like the Cosmic Belt, are obtained via synthesis and bonuses.

Armor Slots[edit]

Kingdom Hearts II[edit]

Sora, Donald, and Goofy each begin Kingdom Hearts II with one armor slot in their equipment area; in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, Goofy instead starts with two armor slots. They can accumulate more armor slots through the game based on specific events and battles.

World-specific characters such as Mulan, Tron, and Jack Sparrow also have at least one armor slot, but cannot gain any more in the course of the game. In the same vein, Roxas begins the game with one slot and cannot gain more through experience.

Kingdom Hearts III[edit]

Sora and Donald each start the game with one armor slot, and Goofy starts with two slots. They can earn more as the game progresses. Earnings are as follows:
