In Link's Awakening, the Blue Mail - known as the Blue Clothes in Link's Awakening DX - is an optional item available only in Link's Awakening DX and Link's Awakening for Nintendo Switch, not the original Game Boy release. As in A Link to the Past, it doubles Link's defensive powers, reducing damage taken by half.

On completing the Color Dungeon, Link finds himself in a room with Koholint Island's Fairy Queen, who will offer him the choice between the blue mail which doubles defence, or the red mail which doubles attack[1]. Whichever he chooses, he can return to the Fairy Queen at a later time to switch to the other option.

A Link Between Worlds
