The '''Iron helmet''' is a recurring piece of headwwear in the {{DQSeries}}.  It is mid-level headgear often seen during the middle stages of games in the main series. Since its debut in the second game, it has appeared in every game since then.

The design of the Iron helmet has stayed almost consistently the same throughout all games. It is a simple helmet of the kind worn by castle guards and knights, made out of grey iron plates with gold edges near the front opening and bottom, a round blue gem where the wearer's forehead would be, and a feathered plume near the back. In {{Dragon Quest II}}, the plume in the back had yellow feathers, but starting with the third game it has consistently had red feathers. The helmet's design is similar to the real world "barbute" style of helmet, which had no visor and had an opening in the front for the wearer.
