Batsuit

The Batsuit (or Bat-Suit) is a fictional tactical costume worn by the superhero Batman, which appears in American comic books published by DC Comics, and related media. The suit has been depicted in various artistic iterations, and the stories themselves have described Batman as modifying the details of his costume from time to time. These iterations typically use military and SWAT standards materials and technology that evolved into an advanced combat suit. The Batsuit usually consists of a gray body suit, the chest emblazoned with a stylized black bat either with or without a yellow ellipse around it, and blue-black accessories: a wide scalloped cape, gloves with a series of fin-like projections, trunks, boots, and a close-fitting cowl (covering his head) with ear-like projections to suggest a bat's head; and a yellow utility belt containing a variety of gadgets.
