The '''Iron armour''' is armour in the series. It is a mid-ranking set of heavy armour typically reserved for stronger characters due to its weight.

The iron armour consists of a breastplate, pauldrons, and faulds made out of beaten iron plates. The armour is grey with gold edges and the pieces are attached with a series of brown leather belts. In character art, the iron armour often includes a pair of [[Wikipedia:Sabatons|sabatons]] made out of iron, as well. It is the standard equipment of castle guards. It has appeared in every main entry in the series except for ''[[Dragon Quest II]]''. In ''Dragon Quest IX'' and ''X'', a blue long-sleeved shirt is worn underneath the armour.

The Iron armour has a {{Defence}} bonus of +25 and can be equipped by the {{Hero 3}}, [[Warrior]]s, and [[Merchant]]s. It can be purchased in [[Khoryv]], [[Asham]], [[Isis]], and [[Portoga]] for 1,100 gold and sold for 825 gold. It has a {{fraction|1|64}} chance of being dropped by [[Infernal armour]]s, as well.
