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.
