Minecraft is at its best when it comes to customization, and your armor will get the most benefits with the next big update. Minecraft 1.20 gives you the ability to color, design and add patterns (or trims) to your armor in thousands of unique ways. All you need is the right method and the right equipment. So, without wasting any time, let's learn how to customize your armor in Minecraft.

The customization of armor in Minecraft refers to changing its physical appearance, color and design. It does not affect the armor's abilities. There are two main methods of customizing your armor in Minecraft:

Remember that you need to use the best armor enchantments on the armor if you want to add special abilities to it. In terms of appearance, the enchantments only add a subtle glint to the armor, but their supernatural abilities are game-changing.

Part of the Minecraft 1.20 update, Armor Trims are a type of in-game Smithing template that allows you to add different patterns to your armor. There are 16 unique Armor Trims in Minecraft, and each one can be used with 10 distinct trim colors for each piece of armor, including the helmet, chest plate, leggings, and boots. Since there are six armor materials including heavily colored leather armor in the game, you can create almost unlimited unique combinations of armor.
