During your adventure in Super Mario RPG, you'll be going through a lot of hurdles; weapon-shaped enemies with a thirst for blood, weird ladies and chunky birds with shady intentions, gigantic Piranha Plants with sharp teeth, and a big lot of Goombas, Koopa Troopas, and Shy Guys. The usual stuff.

Here's everything you need to know about status effects in Super Mario RPG and how to heal them.
PostsNonetheless, the game always gives you a helping hand before facing these hurdles, thanks to the shops, which usually sell armor pieces. Without armor, Mario and his friends would fall upon any contact. Thankfully, as enemies get tougher, the armor up for sale gets sturdier, adapted to the point of the adventure when you find them.
All Armor In Mushroom Kingdom
Your quest for getting sturdier starts in Mushroom Kingdom. At this point, you've already met Mallow, and you'll be heading towards Tadpole Pond, searching for Peach. The shop is near the eastern entrance of the town.
Here's what you can find in this shop:

All Armor In Rose Town
Your next stop is in Rose Town. Here's when you'll meet Geno, but you won't be able to suit him yet. The toads here are getting paralyzed by Bowyer's arrows, so you'll need some good extra defense to sort the Forest Maze and reach the evil bow. The shop is in the east of the town, inside a big building. Talk with the lady toad;she's in charge of the armor.

Peach joins the party at this point, so there's armor available for her, too.

How To Get The Super Suit And Lazy Armor
Aside from the Work Pants, which you already saw, there are two pieces of armor that all the party can share: the Super Suit and the Lazy Shell.
Super Suit
You'll get the Super Suit in Monstro Town after getting challenged by Chow, a friendly K-9 who asks you to land 100 Super Jumps. Here's a detailed guide about the process, explaining where to find Chow and how to land 100 Super Jumps in a row.

Lazy Shell
The Lazy Shell armor is accessible during your time in Nimbus Land. When climbing up Bean Valley, you'll find a Beezo (or a flying Shy Guy) watering a Piranha Plant stuck in a pipe. Jumping on the pipe will unleash a battle against Smilax.
As you defeat it, you'll see how Beezo flies away and a note gets stuck in a wall nearby. Interacting with the note will give you the Seed. But that's not all; you also need an item named Fertilizer.
Get up Nimbus Land and go to the east until you hit the invisible wall. Keep walking while pushing forward until you find a hidden zone with an invisible floor. Here, you'll find Beezo again, who does not want to get stomped by Mario, so he gives you the Fertilizer.
Now, it's time to head to Rose Town. If you go to the north, you'll find an entrance leading to a new zone with a single house. That's the house of the gardener. As you give him the Seed and the Fertilizer, the gardener will plant them, and a giant beanstalk will appear.
Climb it, and you'll find two chests. Open them, and you'll find two Lazy Shells; one is a weapon, and the other one is the armor piece.
