List of Robes

This is a list of every piece of bodywear in the Golden Sun series that the games categorize as "Robes". Mechanically, in Golden Sun and The Lost Age, they are distinguished from other armor types by which Adepts can equip them: the "caster-style" Adepts Ivan and Mia in the first game, alongside Jenna and Sheba in the second game. None of these four Adepts can wear Armor, which all four of the "warrior-style" Adepts can wear; on the other hand, all eight Adepts in the GBA series can wear Clothing.

In Golden Sun: Dark Dawn, Robes can be worn by Karis, Rief, Amiti, and Himi, the four most "caster-like" Adepts. Furthermore, while Sveta cannot normally wear Robes, she can wear any Robe that can only be worn by female party members. All Robes featured in the game return from prior installments.
