Lois & Clark - The New Adventures of Superman, Dean Cain's Superman Costume and Cape

original movie costume

This is a custom made Superman costume used in the 90's television series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. It can be seen throughout the action packed series worn by Dean Cain as he goes about his double life. The costume consists of a thick blue spandex body suit, which features the legendary red and gold S insignia across the chest and a back zip closure, as well as a pair of red spandex briefs with a gold spandex belt. Also included, is a long red cotton blend, cape with padded shoulders, Velcro closures, large solid gold S insignia and two snaps that connect the cape to the body suit. There are two production markings located on the costume, inside the briefs is marked "Stunt Fly" and on the interior of the cape "FLY." Best of all, the costume exhibits a production distressed bullet-like hole located on near the left shoulder; likely from an episode where superman is wounded.

Owning a Superman costume has always been one of my "Holy Grails". Few other costumes beat the pure iconic power and immediate recognition factor of the big "S" on the chest and the red cape, regardless of Superman's film or television incarnation. I'd like to thank the good folks at the Propstore of London for helping me fulfill the dream.
