Functions

• Identity concealment: The Flash suit conceals Barry's identity when he patrols Central City as the Flash. Barry also came up with the idea to not leave fingerprints using gloves in order to further keep his identity a secret.
• Intense temperature and abrasion resistance: Barry's suit was initially made for Barry to test his speed and not burn his clothes. He continued using it for this purpose afterwards, however it seems to have suffered from wear and tear eventually when travelling through time.
