— In-game description

The Banded Shield is a shield from The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. It is an upgrade to the far less durable Wooden Shield. It can protect Link from electric based attacks, but will burn if it comes in contact with fire. The Banded Shield can be purchased at the Bazaar by upgrading the Wooden Shield for 30 Rupees along with two Amber Relics, one Monster Claw, and one Jelly Blob. It can be further upgraded into the Braced Shield by providing three Amber Relics, two Monster Claws, two Tumbleweeds and one Ornamental Skull.
