The infamous antihero known as Red Hood is a popular choice for cosplay. His complex nature, skilled in a number of areas, including aviation and piloting, criminology, disguise, multilingualism, martial arts and hand to hand combat, and stealth, makes him a fun character to portray at comic conventions and parties. Red Hood Cosplay is also a great way to connect with fellow fans of the DC Universe and find new friends. Redhoodcosplay.com
As a member of the Gotham Knights, Red Hood is an excellent candidate for a suit that utilizes armor. This particular costume combines a pleather jumpsuit with a pair of holsters strapped to each leg and a pair of shoulder pads. The design is a bit more militaristic than most other Red Hood outfits, but still carries an air of authority thanks to the nods to the caped crusader centered on the chest.
Those familiar with the Red Hood character know that he is a mercenary and assassin. This suit is perfect for a character that uses a variety of weapons and has the ability to take down entire groups at once. The suit is made from a brown pleather material and a pair of dark gloves, with two pistols attached to the shoulders for carrying. The look is completed by a pair of black boots and an M1911 air gun, which can be easily purchased online.
After being killed by the Joker and then rising from the dead as a vigilante with a big bone to pick with Batman, Jason Todd quickly became a fan-favorite of the Bat-Family. While he has changed his look numerous times in the comics, this Rebirth era design is one of the more rugged and low tech that he's ever worn, making it an ideal option for cosplaying. As if that wasn't enough, u/reznor9 even adds a bit of flair to the ensemble by removing Jason's red bat symbol from his mask.

Another version of the Gotham Knights outfit, this suit takes a slightly different approach by using a metallic look to the armor plating on the shoulders and legs. It's a cool look that helps the outfit stand out, but it doesn't quite fit in with the rest of the Red Hood suits, especially the ones that use the same style.
The final suit on this list is a good example of the kind of Elseworlds silliness that WB Montreal often uses with the Bat-Family. While this look isn't as unique as some of the others on this list, it does still work well to make this Red Hood feel like a ninja, with his armor and robes giving off the vibe of a modern-day ninja clan. It's complete with a ninja-style helmet that fits in perfectly.
While he isn't the most articulate member of the Bat-Family, this Rebirth era look allows for some unique ideas to come into play. u/reznor9 is able to capture all of the right elements of the new Jason Todd by adding some interesting touches to the uniform and making the most of his menacing mask. The result is a costume that looks incredibly badass and is ready to take down any of the Joker's minions.
