Superman suit

The Superman suit is an outfit that Clark Kent wears as the superhero, Superman.

Overview
During the time he was Superboy, Clark needed a suit. Clark's mother, Martha Kent had attempted to recreate traditional Kryptonian clothing. She had created this suit from fabric inside of his pod. The leggings of Superman's suit resembled pants with underwear worn over them. Along with the addition of a red cape and a yellow belt. He has used this suit since his debut, even after moving to Metropolis.

1st Generation
Made by Martha Kent, this costume consists of a blue suit with red trims, a large red cape, and a red and yellow emblem, the House of El's coat of arms, emblazoned on the chest, along with a yellow belt over his red trunks and red boots. He normally wears the suit underneath his ordinary clothes so he can quickly change out of them.

Upgrades
During his adventures with the Legion of Super-Heroes, he had briefly upgraded his suit. Replacing the blank buckle of his suit with a Legionnaire shield.

History
When Clark decided to become a superhero, he donned a blue and red suit, resembling the traditional clothing as seen on Krypton. Clark used his suit to inspire Metropolis and the world that there is hope, giving the illusion that the House of El crest on his chest meant "Super". Clark and his suit are an inspiration for the Legion of Super-Heroes in the future.

As Superman, Clark wore this suit throughout his adventures, various missions, including two battles against Metallo, and other heroic acts

Functions

 * Cape: Although not necessary, Clark's cape helps him to turn when he is flying due to the fact capes help with aerodynamics.
 * Advanced durability: The suit is just as durable as Clark; as bullets cannot penetrate it, even explosives from missiles and highly concentrated bursts of energy; such as from Metallo, could not damage it. Clark uses the advanced durability as a precaution if his bio-aura or powers are disabled.
 * Vacuum Seal: The suit can be expanded several times larger to fit Clark; this can be noticed as Clark wore the same suit as Superboy and when debuting in Metropolis. This also helped the suit be unseen when wearing clothing over it.
