A fan has highlighted key differences between the costumes Grant Gustin wore in the fifth and sixth seasons of The Flash.
Throughout the entire run of The Flash, Grant Gustin’s Barry Allen has worn multiple costumes as the Scarlet Speedster that have been fairly comic-accurate. Of course, aside from the chin strap being removed or added, sometimes the changes between Grant Gustin’s The Flash costumes have been subtle enough to miss.
Now, an Instagram user has posted two side-by-side images to emphasize the differences between the outfit Grant Gustin wore in the fifth season of The Flash and the updated suit he will don in season six. As the post most notably reveals, the chin strap has returned for Grant Gustin’s season six outfit while gold highlights have been added as well.

Full details on the sixth season of Grant Gustin’s The Flash are under wraps, though Heroes alum Sendhil Ramamurthy has joined the cast at DC Comics villain Bloodwork. In the comics, Bloodwork is a Central City morgue employee and hemophiliac who developed the ability to transform his flesh into blood-like physiology after experimenting with blood properties. The new season has also been teased to include an antagonist who will be the most personal villain Barry Allen has faced since Eobard Thawne.
The back-half of the Grant Gustin series’ next season will deal with the fallout from Crisis on Infinite Earths. With Arrow coming to an end this fall after concluding its eight-episode final season, The Flash will also become The CW’s main DC Comics drama and Grant Gustin’s Barry Allen will seemingly lead the other Arrowverse superheroes forward.
The Flash stars Grant Gustin as Barry Allen / The Flash, Candice Patton as Iris West, Danielle Panabaker as Caitlin Snow / Killer Frost, Carlos Valdes as Cisco Ramon / Vibe, Tom Cavanagh as Harrison Wells, Jesse L. Martin as Joe West, Danielle Nicolet as Cecile Horton, and Hartley Sawyer as Ralph Dibny / Elongated Man
