Capes or cloaks in fiction are a good way to make your character look imposing, threatening, or regal. Some media give them a more practical purpose by having them be used as a defense against attacks. This clothing will usually be made of a particularly durable (often fictional) material, be doused in a certain chemical, or have some kind of enchantment that grants it protection.
This trope also applies to outerwear worn around the upper torso and over shirts such as robes, jackets, coats, shawls, and mantles.
Even in a non-magical setting, a sturdy cloak or heavy leather buff coat offers some protection against blades and a heavy vest with 20 layers of quilted fabric (a gambeson) may offer protection against blades or modestly-powered firearm projectiles.
Compare Invisibility Cloak and Armor of Invincibility. Sub-Trope of Arsenal Attire. May be the reason why Superheroes Wear Capes. Is often a Badass Cape. Can sometimes overlap with Cloth Fu.

Samurai Jack: The Princess and the Bounty Hunters" has The Gentleman, a Bounty Hunter and Professional Killer who throws his cloak at his opponent to blind and distract them long enough to throw his knives through the cloak at them. Princess Mira warns him that Jack is far too quick and disciplined to fall for such a tactic, and even when attacked by the coordinated efforts of Mira, The Gentleman, and four other bounty hunters Jack effortlessly parries the knives and cuts down The Gentleman in a single slash.

Dungeons & Dragons: The game has numerous cloaks, robes, mantles, and capes which provide certain types of defense and protection. These include:
The Cloak of Protection, a standard magic item that grants the wearer a +1 bonus to armor class and any saving throws they make to avoid harmful effects.
The Cloak of Arachnida gives its wearer properties of a spider, including resistance to poison damage and immunity to being trapped in any kind of webbing.
The Cloak of Displacement makes the wearer harder to hit by generating an illusion of them standing a short distance from where they actually are.
The Firebane Cloak gives a +3 bonus to saving throws against fire attacks and reduces damage from such attacks.

One Piece:
In his fight against Hotori and Kotori, Gan Fall uses his cape to protect himself when one of them emits methane gas with a Flavour Dial (Gan Fall thought it was a Fire Dial).
Diamante's cape is actually a sheet of high-grade steel. He uses his Devil Fruit, the Billow-Billow Fruit, to make it malleable and flowing like cloth when not using it as a shield.

Old Kingdom: The old Abhorsens protected themselves from dangerous Free Magic with specially enchanted robes, masks, and gauntlets. They don't last long once activated — Clariel steals a set when she needs to use Free Magic spirits for a task, and the robes disintegrate within days.

Final Fantasy:
Final Fantasy: The Protect Cloak is worn in the shield slot, and is the only shield in the original version that White Mages or Black Mages can equip. Later versions added the Zephyr Cloak and the Elven Cloak.
Final Fantasy IV: Rubicante is weak to Ice and Water attacks, but wears a cloak that heals him if he is hit by those elements while it is raised.
Final Fantasy V: The Elven Cloak is worn as an accessory, but otherwise behaves exactly like a shield by stopping physical attacks when it activates.

Warhammer:
The Dark Elf Corsairs wear cloaks made of Sea Dragon skin while the Chrace High Elves of the White Lions regiment wear pelts from the beasts that give them their name. Both have varying effects depending on the rulebook edition but always provide good protection.
Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay:
Elven cloaks are enchanted to camouflage the wearer and reduce the accuracy of incoming ranged attacks.
White Wolf Cloaks render the wearer immune to natural and magical cold. As their creation requires a High Priest of Ulric to kill a white wolf bare-handed in single combat, they are a rare privilege.

Re:Zero: When she was hired by Roswaal L. Mathers, the assassin Elsa Granheirt was given an enchanted cloak that could protect its wearer from any offensive magical attack. However, the cloak had two drawbacks; Firstly, it only worked once and would dissipate after negating an attack; secondly, it only worked against spells intended to harm her physically and could be bypassed by indirect Shamak magic.

Dungeon Crawl: Cloaks can be equipped by most races on top of their armor. Although they provide little in the way of armor (base 1, upgradable to 3), their real utility is in the variety of defensive magical enhancements they can have. These include improving stealth and improving resistance to magical attacks.

Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft: The "Robe of Protection" card grants all minions on its side of the board the effect "Can't be targeted by spells or hero powers" while it remains in play. However, this is a downplayed version of this trope; the card doesn't make minions immune to spells and they can still be affected by spells that hit everyone.

The Apprentice, the Student, and the Charlatan: The Night Apprentice, Faithful Student, Night Master, and Prime Magus each had cloaks that served symbols of their station and carried a number of useful enchantments, such as invisibility or teleportation. Given the in-universe First Fundamental Law of Magic that magic cannot pierce magic, no matter how powerful one Source is compared to the other, this makes magically-impregnated clothing defensive against magical attacks by default, something Nova Shine uses on several occasions.
