You just can't make a list of best superhero movie costumes without including one of the most influential of all time: Batman's ultra-tactical Batsuit in The Dark Knight.

A scene in the movie is even devoted to Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman) detailing how freaking awesome the thing is, with "hardened Kevlar plates over titanium-tipped tri-weaved fibers" to make the suit more flexible and agile, albeit at the expense of making Bats more vulnerable to knives and gunfire.

It may just be a modified version of his Batman Begins suit, but it's without question the most expert melding of aesthetics and practicality in any of the Caped Crusader's movies. In addition to allowing him more athletic possibilities than ever before, he can actually move his bloody head for once.
