The Batman suit is a costume worn by Bruce Wayne.
Description[]
Bruce Wayne wears a Bat-inspired costume that is armored to withstand massive physical damage to defend himself from injury as Batman. During his career as a vigilante he has been shown to have worn at least three different suits. The first seen in a flashback at Checkmate headquarters (Detective) is a lot closer to the comic book counterpart, and probably was the first one and the prototype to the armored one. It seems to be gray Kevlar or maybe leather-made costume with black bands that run length wise along his sides from under the arms to his knees; a pair of reinforced black gloves and boots, the classic wing-like cape and a "bat" helmet very similar to what he wears with the second batsuit, a yellow utility belt and a large bat symbol on his chest that reached half way across the armor on his shoulders.
His current costume (Detective), which has been shown much more, is armored, dark-toned, and is modeled after a knight. This suit makes him look bigger than he actually is in order to intimidate his enemies. A cross between antique and futuristic, it possess a base layer of some kind of padded material and various flexible metal plates, one of which bears the logo of the bat on his chest. His head, underneath the helmet is protected by padded headgear similar to what knights wore. He wears a black utility belt, a reinforced bat eared cowl and a wing-like kevlar cape to complete his look as The Batman. Somehow the cowl covers or colors the lower part of his face without obscuring it. This is probably done to hide his face in shadows and make it even harder for him to be recognized. Other than protecting Bruce from sustaining massive and detrimental injuries to his body, his armored suit enhances his physical attributes and protects his body from both impacts and explosions (Detective). His cowl is equipped with a com-link, much like Superman's blue-tooth ear-piece, so he can contact his partner Nightwing or Alfred while on patrol of Gotham. His cowl also has white lenses within the eyes to give Batman an element of being inhuman to those he confronts and serves the purpose of given Batman enhanced vision. This performs similar to Superman's X-ray vision by some technological means and highlights human skeletons to spot opponents in the dark and behind walls. The emblem on his chest and the gloves can be used as a means to project artificial solar light (be it "Red Sun" or "Yellow Sun" radiation) for use on kryptonians, like Superman. The belt buckle can generate heat to help free him if he is encased in ice.
A third armored Batsuit with thermal protection capability was created by Bruce during Detective to defeat Mr. Freeze. This suit was an fully enclosed and does not even expose the lower face of The Dark Knight and possible could have been powered armor to compete against Freeze's upgraded gear.
