The Flash Suits (Earth-Prime)

The Flash Suits are a series of protective suits used by Barry Allen as the vigilante, The Flash.

Training Suit
Prior to being The Flash, Allen wore an athlete outfit with a helmet. It was then placed at Starchives and briefly worn by Chester P. Runk.

First Suit
At some point after Allen got struck by lightning and became The Flash, Cisco made him a suit as a vigilante in Central City. As of 2020, the suit was placed on a mannequin at S.T.A.R. Labs.

Second Suit
Slightly modified from the first suit, this suit contains a white emblem instead of a red one. This suit was used during the Dominator Invasion.

Third Suit
The third suit was seen in storage at Starchives along other damaged suits.

Fourth Suit
In 2019, Allen received a suit and used it while using the Mirror Gun at CCPD.

Fifth Suit
As of 2020, Allen was using an advanced suit as The Flash. This suit was created by Cisco Ramon at some point after 2019 and it was stored in the Flash Ring. The suit then served as Allen's major suit for his actions afterwards and was given multiple upgrades including a modified Particle Eradication Distributor that appeared as a pair of good boots, allowing Allen to battle Despero's Flame of Py'tar.

Designs
The first two suits are red leather jackets with golden accents. The suit includes an emblem of a thunderbolt on the chest with the first suit having a red background and the second having a white one and a golden belt. The suit's cowl can also be removed, similar to a hood.

The fourth suit has a similar primary design as the first three with a red removable cowl and golden accents. However, the red in this suit was brightened and was redesigned with a new fabric. As the suit was built with advanced technology, it can be stored in the Flash Ring for mobility.

Keeping elements from predecessors, the fifth suit's color scheme was darkened comparing to the third suit with the fabric slightly altered. This suit also includes more golden accents on the chest and legs. Additionally, the suit includes nano technology for the cowl. A pair of gold boots were also added to the suit while Allen fought against Despero, allowing him to stop the latter's destructive Flame of Py'tar.

Functions
"Does that include currents equal to the kinetic output created when I run? Uh, it should, and the force of those two equal energies would probably cancel each other out. It'd be like running into a brick wall."
 * Advanced Durability: To compensate Allen's superhuman speed, the suits are able to withstand the heat caused by friction during the high speed running.
 * Audio Broadcast: The lightning bolt on the side of the cowl also serves as a speaker. Allen used the audio broadcast function when he attempted to attract the attention of a Godspeed.
 * Connection to S.T.A.R. Labs: The suit is connected to the S.T.A.R. Labs computer system and can be monitored from the cortex. The lightning bolt on the side of the cowl also serves as a communication device.
 * Hologram Projector: The HUD of the cowl is able to project a hologram and act as a map for Allen. However, when misused, it could block Allen's vision.
 * Identity Concealment: The suit has a red cowl to prevent Allen's identity to be exposed.
 * Nano Technology (fourth suit): The fourth suit was installed with nano technology for the cowl and can be activated when Allen presses the lightning bolt on the cowl.

 * Energy Redirection: The PED installed in the boots of the suit has the capability of redirecting most energy sources, including currents equal to the kinetic output created when Allen runs. The force of those two equal energies would then cancel each other out and create a surface for Allen to walk on, allowing him to reach high locations with ease.
