Minecraft Armor Trim Materials

To customize your armor with trims in Minecraft you will need to get hold of three things:

  1. An Armor Trim.
  2. An Ore.
  3. A piece of armor to customize.

As of now, there are 11 armor trims in Minecraft that you can customize with ten different resources. This gives us over 100 combinations, ranging from quartz-colored trims to diamond and Netherite. All 11 armor trims use the following materials to change their color:

  • Iron.
  • Redstone.
  • Copper.
  • Gold.
  • Quartz.
  • Amethyst.
  • Emerald.
  • Lapis.
  • Diamond.
  • Netherite.

With all that said, below is a list of every armor trim in Minecraft:

  • Spire Armor Trim: Rarely found in End City chests.
  • Snout Armor Trim: Found in Bastion Remnant chests. You may also spot a Netherite Upgrade smithing template!
  • Sentry Armor Trim: Found in Pillager Outpost chests.
  • Tide Armor Trim: Dropped from Elder Guardians at Ocean Monuments.

You may have to visit a specific structure multiple times before you find your first armor trim!
