“With Val Kilmer’s suit in Batman Forever, the nipples were one of those things that I added,” frequent Batman costume designer Jose Fernandez recently told MEL Magazine. Though the nipples on Clooney’s Batman & Robin suit could cut glass, Val Kilmer’s suit in 1995’s Batman Forever was actually the first time we saw some subtle Bat Nipples on screen.

Since Batman’s suit doesn’t sound very comfortable or practical for day-to-day wear, it also comes with a life-size poseable Clooney mannequin fashioned with a “hyper-realistic head” and “prosthetic grade false eyes.” However, the costume is also described as a “stunt suit,” so it could perhaps be a fun way to spice up your regular neighborhood jogs or gym visits. In addition to the Batman logo on his chest, both the cowl and cape are labeled with Clooney’s initials. The getup comes complete with Bruce Wayne’s signature cowl, a full-length cape and two cape clips, gloves, a tunic and tights with extremely detailed muscles, and knee-high boots. Per Heritage Auctions, the outfit is “constructed of cast foam latex, vinyl, resin components, leather, and other mixed media elements” that have been painted with an iridescent metallic finish.

The ensemble Clooney wore in the 1997 film is being auctioned off as part of Heritage Auctions’ Hollywood & Entertainment Signature Auction from July 22nd to the 23rd, with a humble starting bid of $40,000.Ĭlooney’s Batman costume is among the most memorable of all the DC heroes we’ve seen on the big screen, thanks to its inexplicably very perky nipples. Later this month, Batman fanatics with a considerable amount of disposable income will have the chance to purchase George Clooney’s iconic Batman & Robin costume - yes, the infamous nipple suit.
