Mob loot[edit | edit source]
Zombies, husks, skeletons, strays, bogged, piglins, and zombified piglins have a small chance to spawn wearing armor. There is a 8.5% chance (9.5% with Looting I, 10.5% with Looting II and 11.5% with Looting III) for the mob to drop the leggings they're wearing upon death unless they are spawned from an ominous trial spawner. The dropped leggings are usually badly damaged, and may be enchanted with enchantment levels 5-19.
In Bedrock Edition, vindicators and pillagers spawning in raids have a 4.16% chance (5.128% on hard difficulty) to drop iron leggings. The dropped leggings are usually badly damaged, and have a 50% chance of being enchanted with a random enchantment.

- ↑ When creating an enchantment offer, the game uses a random enchantment level from 5 – 19. The enchantments are never treasure enchantments.
Usage[edit | edit source]
Leggings can be placed in the 3rd armor slot of a player's inventory for activation.
Defense points[edit | edit source]
Defense points are each signified by half of a shirt of mail in the armor bar above the health bar. Each defense point reduces any damage dealt to the player that is absorbed by armor by 4%, increasing additively with the number of defense points. Different materials and combinations of armor provide different levels of defense.
The following table shows the number of defense points added by leggings.
Material | Defense points |
---|---|
Leather | 2 ( | )
Golden | 3 ( | )
Chain | 4 ( | )
Iron | 5 ( | )
Diamond | 6 ( | )
Netherite |
Durability[edit | edit source]
The following table shows the amount of damage each piece of armor can absorb before being destroyed.
Any "hit" from a damage source that can be blocked by armor removes one point of durability from each piece of armor worn for every 4 of incoming damage (rounded down, but never below 1). Damage taken but not protected by that armor (such as falling or drowning) does not damage the armor, even if it is enchanted to protect against that type of damage. The following chart displays how many hits leggings can endure.
Netherite armor is not damaged by lava or fire when worn.
Material | Durability |
---|---|
Leather | 75 |
Golden | 105 |
Chain/Iron | 225 |
Diamond | 495 |
Netherite | 555 |

Unit repair[edit | edit source]
Leggings can be repaired in an anvil by adding units of the tiers' repair material, with each repair material restoring 25% the leggings' maximum durability, rounded down. Two leggings of the same tier can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the leggings' enchantments.
Enchantments[edit | edit source]
Leggings can receive the following enchantments:
Name | Description | Max Level | Method | Weight |
---|---|---|---|---|
Protection[note 1] | Increases overall damage reduction. | IV | Enchanting Table Anvil |
10 |
Projectile Protection[note 1] | Increases damage reduction against projectiles. | IV | Enchanting Table Anvil |

- ↑ Jump up to: a b c d Protection, Projectile Protection, Blast Protection, and Fire Protection are mutually exclusive.
Armor trimming[edit | edit source]
It is possible to upgrade armor with trims. This requires a smithing template, a pair of leggings, and an ingot or crystal (iron ingot, copper ingot, gold ingot, netherite ingot, emerald, redstone dust, lapis lazuli, amethyst shard, nether quartz, diamond, or resin brick).
These trims have no effect on the gameplay or strength of the armor.
