The shield bears many similarities to the Hylian Shield's features, including a red bird, the blue base, the Triforce, and the metal decals. However, the Hero's Shield features a simplified and abstract style in comparison. The bird's head is more hunched, and the shape cannot be seen, but its face is visible.

The Shield is an heirloom belonging to Link's family. It is said that the family Shield was the legendary Shield used by the Hero himself.

Link uses the Shield throughout a large portion of the game before obtaining the Mirror Shield in the Earth Temple, after which the Hero's Shield disappears from Link's inventory.

The Shield is predominantly brown as opposed to the blue seen in. The Triforce is in the very center of the shield. There are long swirls surrounding it as well as three bolts at its corners.
