Ezio customising his armor at a tailor merchant

Customization is a gameplay mechanic of Assassin's Creed II. In the Tailor shops in all of the cities, the player can dye Ezio's clothing, although the possible color schemes depend on which city they are in. You can always switch back to your normal color, Assassin White, for free. You can unlock the achievement, "Perfect Harmony", by dyeing your clothes with both "Wetlands Ebony" and "Wetlands Ivory", both colors are available in Romagna/Forli.

In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, you can as well customize the new assassins with different armor colours and outfits.

Dyes

For a list of dyes, their locations and prices, see: Tailors.

Dyes have a common characteristic: a prefix on their names which states where the dye originated from.

• "Florentine" for Florence.
• "Tuscan" for Tuscany (Monteriggioni included).
• "Wetlands" for Romagna.
• "Venetian" for Venice.

Trivia

• While wearing Altaïr's Armor, dyeing only changes the inside of Ezio's cape.
• Dyeing armor causes it to remain, even when you switch it. The only way to remove it is to dye your armor back to its original color, Assassin White. However, since Assassin White is a dye itself, you ultimately cannot remove dyes.
• In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, it is revealed that you can customize Ezio's apprentices with Venetian colors even though the game takes place in Rome.
• Getting the achievement 'Perfect Harmony', by dying your outfit 'Wetlands Ebony' and 'Wetlands' Ivory', is a clear reference to Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder's 'Ebony and Ivory' hit, in which the first line of the track is "Ebony and ivory live together in perfect harmony".
• The varius dyes don't remain (for some obvious reasons) "unlocked". This means that if you want to switch back to another dye you've already purchased in the past (apart from Assassin White), you'll have to buy it again. This can lead some players to spend a lot of money especially in the very first parts of the game.
