The Glide armor set is a useful way to get around Hyrule in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, but you’ll need to track down each piece. Here’s how to get the Glide armor set in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, including the locations of each part.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom has introduced Sky Islands, a series of floating landmasses that are not only filled with numerous Shrines and precious items like the Archaic Tunic, but are also deeply intertwined with the game’s storyline.

New abilities like Fuse and Recall are useful for accessing them, but traveling between Sky Islands requires a Paraglider and a ton of stamina. However, the Glide armor set doesn’t consume any stamina, making it an invaluable tool for getting around Hyrule.

So, here’s how to get the Glide armor set in Tears of the Kingdom, including the location of each piece.

Glide armor set locations in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

The Glide armor in Tears of the Kingdom is scattered across three different Sky Islands, so you’ll need to visit each one to assemble the full set. Each piece of armor also requires players to complete a challenge handed out by the Steward Construct.

We’ve got a breakdown of how to get each one below:

How to get Glide Mask in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

The GLide armor set can be found on Sky Islands.

The Glide Mask is hidden on Valor Island in Zelda Tears of the Kingdom. To reach this destination, begin at Mount Lanayru Skyview Tower and launch yourself skywards. Proceed northeast and you’ll reach a small island, where we recommend using a Zonai Device to construct an airship.

Continue heading northeast until you spot an island with a Shrine. Once you arrive, you’ll be able to interact with the Steward Construct, who will give you the challenge to guide Link through a series of rings while skydiving.

This challenge may seem tough at first, by getting hold of the Glide Mask will make the next two steps much more straightforward.

How to get Glide Shirt in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

The Glide Shirt can be found on Courage Island in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, which is situated just northwest of Lookout Landing. The easier way to access the island is by heading to Lindor’s Brow Skyview Tower and using it as a launch pad into the sky.

From there, simply fly southwest to reach Courage Island and tackle the Steward Construct’s task to claim the Glide Shirt. Be sure to equip the Glide Mask to save yourself some trouble.

How to get Glide Tights in Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom

The Glide Tights are located on Bravery Island, found to the south of the Thyplo Ruins Skyview Tower. Access the tower and use it to glide your way to the island positioned at the southernmost point of the Great Hyrule Forest.

Here you will be met with another of the Steward Construct’s challenges, but equipping the Glide Shirt and Glide Mask will make it a breeze. Once the trial is complete, you’ll be rewarded with the Glide Tights, competing the Glide armor set in Tears of the Kingdom.
