Grant Gustin looks mad as hell in his new The Flash suit.

First OFFICIAL look at Barry’s new threads for season 5.

Maybe in reaction to the leaked photo that led to body-shaming of Grant Gustin for being too skinny.

Here’s the thing about this bullshit photo leak — it’s a cool suit. It’s a terrible photo that I was unaware was being taken, much less being posted. Some things need work and they will be worked on. We’ll get there.

Read this if you have good enough eyes.

C’mon. Grant Gustin’s body type is just right for a speedster.

And not that it matters,  but the leaked photo is distorted. Gustin doesn’t look like this in real life.

Here he is below on set in Vancouver last month, wearing his season one suit because his season 4 suit was destroyed.

I don’t have a suit. — Barry Allen

 

Actually I have a backup. Total fan favourite. — Nora West-Allen, his daughter from the future.

Barry Allen gets his new suit when Nora gives him his Flash ring.

How is it different?

It’s mainly spandex not leather. There’s no chin strap. The emblem is smaller. There’s more gold on the red boots.

The Flash season 5 premieres October 9th.
