Nightwing Suit:
Nightwing had four versions of his costume. The original costume was mostly blue with light blue gloves and boots. The second was more advanced with a dark blue hue and gold boots and gloves, and trimmings on the neck. Each suit was made of a version of the Nomex fire-resistant, triple-weave Kevlar-lined material. It is an excellent protection against damage, and it’s also electrically insulated. Instead of a black cape for stealthing, the suit is light sensitive, darkening when there is more light in the area. The current costume, a stylized blue “wing” across his shoulders and extending to his hands, coloring his two middle fingers, over a black torso and legs. Nightwing’s costume is tailored specifically to his unique style of crime-fighting. As such, his costume has fewer body-armor inlays than Batman’s, anticipating a decreased need for shock-absorption and an increased capacity for motion. (“Move more, get hit less.”) A caveat of this configuration can be exploited by capable fighters who are both fast and strong, such as Superman. Should Nightwing need to engage an enemy who is capable of exploiting this weakness, he has supplemental body-armor overlays which he can attach to his gauntlets, mask, shoulders, and boots. Recently he has begun using a new version of his costume. It appears to be the same basic design of the third, except the blue portions have been changed to red, and he now has spikes on the gauntlets similar to Batman’s. Nightwing’s latest suit returns to the blue and black design. The logo is now slimmer and has a bird head. The logo wraps around his chest, around the shoulders and back. The boots now have a light blue trim.
Nightwing Mask:
The mask, in the form of his symbol, is fixed in place with spirit gum, and includes a built-in radio transmitter/receiver and Starlight night-vision goggles. His gauntlets and boots each contain eight compartments in which he can store items. They have a self-destruct feature built into them, similar to the ones in Batman’s utility belt, and, as another security measure (especially when the hero is unconscious), the suit contains a one-use-only taser charge, which automatically emits a high-voltage electrical shock when someone attempts to tamper with either the boots or gauntlets.
Nightwing Gauntlets:
Each gauntlet’s sections can contain a wide array of equipment, such as sonic or smoke pellets, modified batarangs (“Wing-Dings”), knockout gas capsules and throwing tracers. The right gauntlet is also equipped with a 100,000-volt stun gun.
Nightwing Boots:
Like the gauntlets, his boots can carry vital elements like flares, a rebreather as protection against any airborne non-contact toxins, a mini-computer equipped with fax, modem, GPS and a minidisk rewritable drive. Other items are lock picks, a first aid kit, a mini-cellphone, flexi-cuffs, antitoxin assortment, signal flares, wireless listening devices and a small halogen flashlight.
Held in spring-loaded pouches in the back of his costume, Nightwing carries a pair of Escrima sticks made from an unbreakable polymer that are wielded as both offensive and defensive weapons. Some depictions have displayed these tools with the mechanism to shoot a grappling hook attached to a swing line (like Daredevil’s billy clubs), while, in other instances, he is seen using a “line gun” like the one Batman currently uses.
Transportation:
Nightwing has a transformable car which has a convertible chassis that can disguise itself as any similarly sized vehicle like a taxi cab or sports car. It houses a 3.7L McLaren racing engine, automatic transmission with all wheel drive, dual batteries and puncture resistant tires. The car is not only bullet proof but also bullet absorbent in order to prevent stray ricochets from hitting innocent bystanders.
Nightwing once used a customized boat; this boat presumably has the same specs as the Batboat if it was not the Batboat itself.
Nightwing also has his own personalized model of the Batcycle, which he refers to as the “Wingcycle”. The Wingcycle is equipped with a passenger sidecar.
Nightwing Weapons:
Batarangs, smaller shurikenlike “Wing Dings”, regurgitant gas (tear gas mixed with an additive agent to induce vomiting) pellets smoke capsules. His right gauntlet contains a 100,000 volt stun gun, although his preferred weapons are two shatterproof polymer Eskrima sticks.
Batman suit:
As Batman, Grayson’s Batsuit featured a lighter cape to accommodate his more acrobatic fighting style and a utility belt with a bat-shaped buckle. He also developed “para-capes” for his and Damian’s costumes which gives them the ability to glide, which may be a homage to Batman Begins. Grayson is a noticeably shorter than Wayne.
