Accessories are equippable items used to improve the stats of the player character, Sora, and any of his party members in Kingdom Hearts and the Final Mix version. They are typically found in treasure chests, but are sometimes also dropped by Heartless, found already equipped on new party members, bought from Cid's Accessory Shop, or created through item synthesis at the Item Workshop. Other methods of acquiring accessories is by completing objectives, such as locking a Keyhole, defeating a boss (which often grants a unique accessory), or by returning enough lost puppies to Pongo and Perdita.
Accessories primarily increase either the HP, MP, AP, Strength, and Defense statistics, but can also offer other benefits like (stackable) Experience bonuses, or (also stackable) elemental damage reductions. Typically the most powerful accessories will offer multiple stat boosts or damage reduction for all elements.
They are equipped in accessory slots, with the main three characters (Sora, Donald, and Goofy) always starting with two each. Sora can gain an additional slot on either level 30, 39, or 45 depending on whether he chose the Dream Shield, Dream Sword, or Dream Rod. Other than Sora only Goofy can gain additional slots, specifically at level 24 and 48. The other party members are also limited to an amount ranging from only one to three slots.
Final Mix also introduced several new accessories, notably those that boost your Experience gain, which are only available in a very limited quantity. It also made changes to accessories inside chests, either downgrading them to a weaker version, or changing them altogether to a different type of item. Three accessories also received a minor bonus of one extra Defense point.

Availability[]
Due to Final Mix changing the contents of several chests, the only items listed as available from a chest are those that were either unchanged and are available from only a single chest, or are otherwise not acquirable in any other way. For example, all accessories dropped by non-optional bosses were also available in chests inside the World Terminus at the End of the World in the original Kingdom Hearts.
The drop chance can be increased by equipping Lucky Strike, which also has a stackable effect.
Cid's Accessory Shop's stock increases after sealing Agrabah's Keyhole, and then again after rescuing Kairi from Hollow Bastion.
The prices listed in parentheses are those from Final Mix, if no parentheses are listed then the price was unchanged. Similarly, item synthesis lists in parentheses are also from Final Mix. Higher-tiered lists are unlocked by synthesizing a fixed number of items from other lists.
