The Red Clothes permanently replaces Link's regular, green tunic, although Link can optionally change to the Blue Clothes by completing the Color Dungeon another time. The Red Clothes function mostly the same as a [[Piece of Power]] except Link's walking speed is unaffected. If Link strikes an enemy with his [[sword]] while wearing the Red Clothes, the enemy is sent flying. If Link uses a Piece of Power while wearing the Red Clothes, he does four times the usual damage to enemies.
==Trivia==
*In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX]]'', there is an oversight in which Link can receive the Red Clothes without visiting the [[Color Dungeon]].<ref>petrie911 (October 18, 2009).

The Red Mail, also known as the Red Clothes, is a red tunic that appears in several games in The Legend of Zelda series. Its effects vary depending on the game.

History

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

In The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, the Red Mail is found in Ganon's Tower. It cuts damage received by three quarters.

The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX / The Legend of Zelda: Links Awakening (Nintendo Switch)

Link obtains the Red Clothes in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX

In The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening DX, Link can obtain the Red Clothes after completing the Color Dungeon—when he reaches the end, a fairy queen gives him the option to choose either the power of red for offense or the power of blue for defense. This permanently replaces Link's regular, green tunic, although Link can optionally change to the Blue Clothes by going back to the fairy queen another time. If Link strikes an enemy with his sword while wearing the Red Clothes, the enemy is sent flying. If Link obtains a Piece of Power while wearing the Red Clothes, he does four times the usual damage to enemies.

In the Nintendo Switch remake, the Red Clothes are known as the Red Mail, and the Fairy Queen can revert Link back to the green tunic.

The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

In The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds, the Red Mail is a direct upgrade to the Blue Mail and thus appears in either Lorule Castle or Swamp Palace if the Blue Mail was skipped. It acts like it did in A Link to the Past.
