Chainmail Boots

Chainmail boots[a] are an uncommon variant of boots that cannot be crafted, and are only obtainable through other means such as trading. They are the fourth-highest tier of boots, having the same armor points as leather, golden, and copper boots but with higher durability.

Zombies, husks, skeletons, strays, and bogged have a small chance to spawn wearing armor, which may include chainmail boots. There is a 8.5% chance (9.5% with Looting I, 10.5% with Looting II and 11.5% with Looting III) for the mob to drop the boots they're wearing upon death unless they are spawned from an ominous trial spawner. The dropped boots are usually badly damaged, and may be enchanted with enchantment levels 5-19.

Armorer villagers may give the players with the Hero of the Village effect chainmail boots.‌[Java Edition only]
