This article covers the recurring armor and Accessory type known as Armlets. For the page that covers Rings as an Accessory, see Rings.

Armlets (腕輪, Udewa?), Bracers (ブレイサー, Bureisā?), and Bangles, are a recurring type of armguards in the series, which also appear as accessories in some titles. They are often used by melee and magical-based jobs that cannot equip their counterpart, the gauntlets, like the Monk, the White Mage, and the Black Mage. Examples of recurring armlets in the series are the Power Armlet, Silver Armlet, and Mythril Armlet.
