If you wear these gloves, you can pick up objects such as rocks that you cannot lift with your bare hands. If you can get your hands in these gloves, try lifting a few things.

Power Glove

This allows the wearer to lift and throw heavy objects.

The Power Glove is located in the Desert Palace in A Link to the Past, introducing the need to lift heavy rocks. These rocks obstruct the path to the bosses of the dungeon, the Lanmolas. These rocks also surround the entrance to Death Mountain, necessitating the retrieval of the Power Glove before Link can ascend to the Tower of Hera. Unlike the Gloves in The Adventure of Link, the Power Glove does not alter Link's Sword power.

The Power Glove is replaced by the more powerful Titan's Mitt in Thieves' Town.

Oracle of Ages

The Power Glove is located in the Ancient Tomb in Oracle of Ages. It functions as the L-2 Power Bracelet, being able to lift considerably heavier objects, such as the statues found in and around the Tomb. The Power Glove is crucial for defeating the boss of the dungeon, Ramrock, in its final form. In said form, its hands transform into metal balls, connected to the main body by chains. Link must use the Power Glove to grab onto one of the balls that it doesn't throw towards the young hero and pull it far enough so that it recoils and hits Ramrock, eventually defeating it.

A Link Between Worlds

The Power Glove in A Link Between Worlds functions nearly identically to its counterpart in A Link to the Past. Rosso gives Link the Power when the hero expresses an interest in picking up small rocks.^[8] Rosso also hints that Link should pick up the rocks surrounding his home.^[9] If Link obliges in picking up all of the rocks surrounding his house, Rosso will reward Link with a Chest containing 50 Rupees. Some Lost Maiamai can be located beneath small rocks that must be lifted.

The Power Glove is eventually replaced by the Titan's Mitt on the Gear screen, though both are visible on Link's hands.^{[clarification needed]}
