Fear not, as there are plenty of options available. These are the pieces of equipment that everyStreet Fighter 6player must own to unleash their Avatar’s true potential.

While the glasses don’t offer the biggest stat boosts, they are an ideal early-game accessory. Players can have them on or equip their effect to compensate for the lack of quick Drive regenbefore they level up.
9Oversized Shirt B
With anextra +30 defense, the Oversized Shirt B is one of the best pieces of gear for beginners. It’s a common item that most downtown enemies drop. But the outfit’s damage-reducing Trait makes it a must-have inthe early chapters of the World Tour mode.
To get the same effect, players can also obtain the Casual Dress Shirt B by battling low-level enemies. However, the casual version offers a defense boost of +27, slightly below the oversized shirt.
8Gold Chain Necklace
InWorld Tour’s chapter 5, players fight Retsu, an old monk who drops a golden chain upon getting knocked out. His Gold Chain Necklace comes with the “Throws 1” Trait, whichincreases the wearer’s grapple strength by +15.

Although players will find better alternatives later in the game, the Gold Chain Necklace can help them defeat high-level NPCs by grappling and creating throw loops.
7Thigh-High Socks (Bordered)
Despite being a common Merchant drop, the Thigh-High Socks are rare accessories that come with a practical Trait. They are equipped with theFocus 1 effect, which accelerates Drive Gauge refill.This can make it easier for an Avatar touse Special Moves.
The only downside to this piece of apparel is that it doesn’t go well with most outfits. However, players can hide it on their Avatars and transfer its effect to other pieces of equipment.
6Combat Gloves
Not only do the Combat Gloves look cool, but they also come with two useful Traits: Peak Performance and High Voltage. With the former, players get adamage boost on all attacks.With the latter, they get torefill the Super Art bar faster.
These gloves are an excellent choice for completing side-quests that require defeating an enemy with Super Arts. But players can benefit from them in most boss fights of the World Tour mode.

To get this piece of equipment, players will need topay 10,000 Zenny to Merchant Melloin the caves of Mount Vashal. He can be found in Nayshall.
4Officer’s Watch
As an Ultra-type accessory inStreet Fighter 6, the Officer’s Watch is a high-risk, high-reward item. Players wearing this watch can either get a buff or debuff for the entire match, depending on how they start it.
When wearing the Officer’s Watch, playersmust land the first strike of the match to boost their attacks afterward. However, if the enemy manages to attack them first, they will obtain the buff instead. For players with quick reflexes, it can be worth the risk.
3Fighter’s Hoody
The Fighter’s Hoody is an Ultra Top that grants a massive defense buff to its wearer. Players who equip this item get+104 block points,allowing them to take less damage and resist powerful strikes.
The good thing about the Fighter’s Hoody is that it has an extra Trait, Peak Performance. With this effect, playersinflict additional damage when their Vitality is at 70% or above.
A good idea would be to pair the Fighter’s Hoody with the Ultra Fighter’s Sweatpants for an added +106 defense.
2Blanka-Chan Costume
Despite its goofy look, Blanka-Chan’s costume is one of the best pieces of gear in Street Fighter 6. The outfitboosts punch, kick, and unique attack strength,while also adding+110 to the Avatar’s defense.
