- "Gerudo-made trousers for men sold rarely by Gerudo retailers. Sapphire is used in their creation, which harnesses the power of ice to make the heat more tolerable."
- — In-game description
The Desert Voe Trousers are an item from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. They are Gerudo leg armor for "voe" (men) that grants heat resistance. Sapphire are used in their creation to harness the power of ice to make heat more tolerable. Along with the Radiant Tights, it is the only leg armor made by Gerudo exclusively for voe as Sand Boots and Snow Boots are unisex Gerudo leg armor.
Related Side Quests[]
Like the other pieces of the "Desert Voe" Armor set, Link can only purchase them at certain shops after completing "The Secret Club's Secret" or recruiting Rhondson during "From the Ground Up". The Gerudo Secret Club illegally sells Desert Voe Trousers as it is illegal for Gerudo merchants to sell "voe" clothing as Gerudo can legally only sell "Vai" (women) or unisex armor such as accessories sold at Starlight Memories. However this does not apply to non-Gerudo as Link can sell men's armor to any shops in Gerudo Town without issue.
After recruiting Rhondson, she opens Rhondson Armor Boutique in Tarrey Town where she legally sells Desert Voe armor as the Gerudo law only applies to Gerudo merchants in Gerudo Town.
Additional Effects[]
Given that this pair of trousers is the voe counterpart to the Gerudo Sirwal, it protects Link from sweltering, arid environments such as the desert in the Gerudo province and lessens the need for any heat-proofing. When it is upgraded to a ★★-rank or greater via the aid of a Great Fairy and is worn with the Desert Voe Spaulder as a set and both of those items also have a ★★-rank or greater, they grant Link resistance to electrical damage ala Shock Damage Resist. However, this Heat Resistance is utterly useless in the volcanic heat of Eldin Canyon, Eldin Mountains, and Death Mountain regions as the Flame Guard effect is required for volcanic heat as standard Heat Resistance only applies to desert heat.
