The original Robin-suit was designed to honour the past of the first Robin (Richard Grayson), adopting the design and colour scheme of a circus troop’s acrobat uniform. The traditional red and yellow colour scheme also served to reflect the traditional personality and role of Robin; that of an optimistic beacon of light, to balance out the darkness that Batman represented.
The original Robin-suit’s design was based on Grayson’s acrobat uniform in the circus; a red and green leotard and gloves and a yellow cape. A green domino mask conceals his identity while a yellow “R” symbol is placed over the left breast. |

Following Bruce Wayne’s “death” during the Final Crisis, Richard Grayson restructured the Bat Family, with himself as the new Batman and choosing Damien Wayne as his new Robin. |
