You can buy the [[Deku Shield]] as soon as you manage to get 40 rupees at the Kokiri's shop. It's a wooden shield though, and has all the properties thereof. Later, you can find the [[Hylian Shield]] in one of the graves in [[Kakariko Village]]'s graveyard for free, or pay 80 rupees to buy it at the [[Castle Town]] [[Bazaar]]. Both can be stolen by [[Like Like]]s. Once you reach the Spirit Temple, you can find the [[Mirror Shield]] as an adult, this shield cannot be stolen by Like Likes, and it can reflect beams of intensely bright light.

====Wood====

The first shield Link acquires is the [[Wooden Shield]]. He can get it two different ways, either from [[Instructor Owlan]], or from the [[Gear Shop]] in the [[Bazaar]]. The only difference is that Instructor Owlan gives it to Link for free, while [[Rupin]], owner of the Gear Shop, sells it to Link for 50 [[Rupee]]s. The Wooden Shield can be upgraded to an enhanced version of it called the [[Banded Shield]]. It shares the eaxact same properties of the Wooden Shield, the only difference being it has slightly more endurance. The final Wooden Shield upgrade is the [[Braced Shield]], which is the strongest of the Wood Shields. These upgrades can be performed at the [[Scrap Shop]] by [[Gondo]].
 
====Iron====
The [[Iron Shield]] is the fourth shield available in Skyward Sword. It has much better endurance than the Wooden Shields, and is not weak against fire. It is however, weak against electricity. It can be purchased from the Gear Shop for 100 Rupees. It can be upgraded at the Scrap Shop into the [[Reinforced Shield]], a shield that has more endurance. The final shield in the Iron family is the [[Fortified Shield]], which is the strongest of all the Iron shields.
 
====Sacred====
The next group of shields are very useful. They all block well against fire, electricity, and evil power attacks. These shields also can repair themselves slowly is they have been damaged. The first of these shields is the [[Sacred Shield]]. It can be purchased at the Gear Shop for 500 Rupees. The Sacred Shield can be upgrade to the third best shield in Skyward Sword, the [[Divine Shield]]. It has more endurance than the Sacred Shield. It can be upgraded into the second best shield in the game, the [[Goddess Shield]]. This shield has a crazy amount of endurance, and combined with the property of self-repairing, it will last a crazy long amount of time.
 
====Hylian====
The final and arguably best shield found within ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword|Skyward Sword]]'' is the [[Hylian Shield]], a shield that has appeared in quite a few [[The Legend of Zelda (Series)|Zelda]] games. It has a special property in which it will never break or even get damaged. It can be acquired by defeating a certain number of [[Boss]]es in the [[Thunder Dragon]]'s [[Boss Rush]].
