History 

Unlike the robe Altaïr wore during the events of Assassin's Creed, this armor provides more protection against attacks and is dyed black/red. Due to its advanced design, it is more similar to the armor Giovanni and Ezio wear than Altaïr's original armor. The armor is seen in Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines and Assassin's Creed II.

Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines

After the events of Assassin's Creed, Altaïr created his own set of Master Assassin's armor.

Assassin's Creed II

Years later, Altaïr's Armor was stored inside a vault below the Villa Auditore, locked behind bars

which only open when all six seals from hidden Assassins' tombs are collected and placed in their places below their respective statues. As each seal is placed, a bar (to which the placed seal corresponds) retracts into the wall. When all six seals are placed, the bars that block access to the Altaïr's armor retracts into the floor, granting access to the armor. Altaïr's armor is the most powerful armor in Assassin's Creed II. Since it cannot break, it doesn't need to be repaired, which saves the user a great deal of florins. Unfortunately, the outside of the armor cannot be dyed visibly when worn; only the inside of the hood is affected by dyeing Ezio's clothes with the aid of a Tailor. In Altaïr's codex pages, the assassin claims to have created a new metal which is incredibly strong whilst being light as a feather. In a contrast to other assassin's robes, Altaïr's Armor is black, while Ezio and Altaïr originally wore white. The black color scheme can be attributed to the rank of Grandmaster of the Syrian Assassin's Sect, which Altair obtained after defeating Al Mualim.
