Batman is one of the original super heroes that made everyone want to have special powers and fancy gadgets. It’s still amazing to us how super heroes manage to defeat the bad guys and hide their real identity all in a days work.
Batman is definitely one of the most portrayed super heroes on TV and movies. With the success of the Batman television series in the 60’s and the Batman movie in 1989 there have been sequels, spin offs, animated series, and even prequels. Batman Begins was the first prequel and was a very popular costume in 2005. The next Batman movie up to bat is The Dark Knight scheduled to be released in 2008.
If you are really into Batman and want to enter some costume contests and actually win then we’d have to suggest the ultimate Collectors Edition Batman costume for adults. This full blown costume costs a pretty penny, but looks worth it because of the amazing full latex muscle detail and everything is included.
This Collectors Edition Batman costume comes with;
- cape
- chest piece
- upper arm pieces
- gloves with gauntlets
- boot covers
- upper leg pieces
- belt

With this costume we are sure you’ll turn some heads and walk away with some grand prizes at most costume contests. I wouldn’t doubt you could give some contestants with a Darth Vader costume a run for their money.
This is the animated version of the Batman Costume. It’s an officially licensed Batman costume and includes:

What is the Dark Knight without all his wonderful toys? Get a batman utility belt, grappling hook, and even some bat-a-rangs to help fight crime this Halloween.
Also a good suggestion is instead of settling for the black fabric "boot tops" you can get some standard issues Black Super Hero Boots.
