The Black Coats (in Japanese: 黒のコート, Kuro no kōto), also called the Black Cloaks (in Japanese: 黒マント, Kuro Manto) or just Coats (in Japanese: コー​​ト, Kō ​​ to), are the magical form of clothing that allows the people that wears them to safely pass through the Corridors of Darkness and they are one of the well-known items featured in the Kingdom Hearts universe. They are most noticeable as the uniforms for Organization XIII, but one Black Coat is first used by Master Xehanort in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep as an alternative to the Keyblade wielders' traditional Keyblade Armor. Several characters outside of the Organization wear this coat, including Riku, King Mickey, Ansem the Wise, a Moogle, and the Unknown (Young Xehanort).

  • The Black Coats (in Japanese: 黒のコート, Kuro no kōto), also called the Black Cloaks (in Japanese: 黒マント, Kuro Manto) or just Coats (in Japanese: コー​​ト, Kō ​​ to), are the magical form of clothing that allows the people that wears them to safely pass through the Corridors of Darkness and they are one of the well-known items featured in the Kingdom Hearts universe. They are most noticeable as the uniforms for Organization XIII, but one Black Coat is first used by Master Xehanort in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep as an alternative to the Keyblade wielders' traditional Keyblade Armor. Several characters outside of the Organization wear this coat, including Riku, King Mickey, Ansem the Wise, a Moogle, and the Unknown (Young Xehanort). The Black Coat's main purpose is to resist the corruption inflicted upon one's heart when they pass through a Corridor of Darkness. It also seems to be able to change shape to fit its wearer, as seen when Xion shifts from her normal form to Sora's, and when Riku changes into his Ansem form. Somehow, when Riku and King Mickey cast their coats off, the black gloves, pants, and boots worn under the coat disappear. Furthermore, any trace of the wearer's clothing under the coat disappears, such as Riku's collar, jeans, and sneakers in his second attire, or Mickey's trademark white gloves. All these hint that donning the coat transforms whatever clothing the coat's bearer is wearing under it into the black gloves, pants, and boots seen on all the coat's wearers. However, Roxas's sneakers are visible under his coat in several of his appearances. The Black Coats were originally designed for Roxas and Riku in the secret video "Another Side, Another Story..." simply as a way to disguise them while they were still being designed for Kingdom Hearts II. It was again used simply to hide Xemnas's face during his optional boss battle in Kingdom Hearts Final Mix and in Deep Dive, starting the trend of all Organization members wearing it. Nomura stated in an interview that his initial idea for "The Gathering" was to have Terra, Aqua, and Ventus wear similar coats to the Organization XIII coats to hide their at-the-time undesigned faces, but felt that he could not use black coats once again, and so he stuck with armors instead.
