When fireballs go flying around, you normally expect a certain amount of equipment loss. The same goes to when you hand a screwdriver to your average super-strong individual, or ask a human flamethrower to aim a gun. These don't tend to end as badly as expected, though. Whatever strange mutations, unlimited cosmic powers, or Applied Phlebotinum stops the hero or villain from turning themselves into a deep-fried crispy critter instantly passes onto any clothing, weapons or Plot Coupon that he, she or it may pick up — unless, of course, the lack of protection is a plot point. Furthermore, a character's super-strength provides its full benefit, regardless of size issues with the items they use with it. Additional strength simply results in an even-harder hit. Never mind that most weapons and so on aren't designed for people who can strike with earth-shattering force. Even mundane huge objects picked up by Super Heroes generally don't shatter and bend like would realistically happen — the hero may have vast strength, but the area to which they could direct that strength is relatively small. (Witness Superman picking a car up by the bumper — by rights it ought to tear off in his hands, leaving the car right where it was.) Contrast Magic Pants, where clothing implausibly protects the hero's modesty; My Suit Is Also Super implausibly protects plot points, weapons, or the special effects and art team from spending too much time. Often handwaved by explaining that the hero's gear is magical or otherwise of sufficient durability and strength for them to gain the equivalent benefit. Of course, this does not apply if the suit is supposed to be super-powered, and is what gives the character their powers in the first place. |

Subverted in Batman: Arkham Asylum where during the course of the game, Bats' suit gets tears and rips as the player passes certain scripted areas; a few examples are when Harley Quinn drops an elevator on him, and when Batman is thrown back by an exploding safe (these are cinematics but it also occurs during portions of the gameplay). | |

Justified in Worm: costumes made by Skitter are woven of Black Widow spider silk, and are as such extremely tough and bullet-resistant, if not bulletproof. Later she gets access to Darwin's Bark spiders, and the costumes she makes get an order of magnitude tougher. | |

X-Men: The unstable molecules in Storm's costume allow her to instantly transform it into street clothes or vice versa by charging it with electricity. Colossus' traditional costume had Magic Pants made of unstable molecules, exposing his thighs when he was in his metal form and allowing them to be decently covered while in human form. "Had" is the operative word. Ever since Colossus' return in Astonishing X-Men, whenever he's in his otherwise-just-like-day-one costume, he shows just as much leg in human form as in metal form. |

In Blankman the titular character has accidentally invented a way to turn ordinary fabric impact damage absorbent and proceeds to put together a costume in which to fight crime. Unfortunately, he neglects to do this for the costume he puts together for his future sidekick and then neglects to mention this to said person when they finally put it on, most likely for that one reason. | |

Miguel O'Hara, Spider-Man 2099, wears a suit made from the above mentioned unstable molecules. However, being from the future, the material has entered the mainstream market, though he comments on how expensive it is to have a wardrobe solely made of that (civvy clothes too). His Spider-Man costume was actually something he already had in his closet from a recent Day of the Dead festival just in case things got a bit too rowdy. | |

It's never really focused on, but the costumes of Miraculous heroes in Miraculous Ladybug are magical and thus much tougher than their skintight nature would have you believe. Their masks are also impossible to remove — one Akuma tries unmasking Ladybug, and it doesn't work. | |

In Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, the "DEMOuntable Next Integrated Capability Armor" (or Demonica) is a Latex Space Suit (plus bulky helmet and optional magazine/field equipment vest) that protects regular humans from the unbelievably hostile environment of the Schwarzwelt. In fact, when you earn experience, you don't level up, the Demonica does — which means, the suit is the one responding to enemy attacks, adapting to become more resistant as it's exposed to more dangerous foes and magic. Strip an endgame-level human of the suit, and he's just as squishy and vulnerable as when he started the mission. | |

Nethack is a prime counter-example. Unless your precious magic scrolls are in a waterproof bag, they will be destroyed when you get wet. While your potions turn to water. Note that both of these facts can prove to be useful. Also, if not properly protected, cold will freeze your potions, shattering the bottles, fire will burn your scrolls, boil your potions and damage cloth/wood equipment, and lightning can explode your magic rings/wands (causing extra damage), and so on. Best to invest in a cloak with good Magic Cancellation promptly. Angband (and its variants) also has item damage, though with a slightly simpler model. Actually, most roguelikes probably avert this trope. In the Tales of Maj'Eyal variant, using various area effect spells to get rid of anything lesser than an ego/artifact level item is a very efficient method to deal with the increasingly high number of item you'd consider worthless as you level up. |

The Flash: The reason why the various Flashes and other speedsters don't burn their clothing — or themselves for that matter — from air friction is that each has an invisible aura around their bodies to protect them. In fact, that's how the Barry Allen Flash first defeated his evil counterpart, Professor Zoom. The villain bragged how he used a chemical coating to protect himself from air friction and Allen successfully bet that his aura was better protection when he starting pushing Zoom fast enough to have the resulting heat overwhelm his coating. Wally West literally had a super-suit made out of the Speed Force that powers all "speedsters". In the New 52 relaunch, Barry Allen's super-suit is constructed of metal plates because regular clothes would simply burn off when he ran. The metal in his super-suit reacts differently to the Speed Force. | |

Hancock. The titular character is constantly suffering Clothing Damage, which is realistic; he's invulnerable, and his clothes aren't. However, when Ray supplies him with his costume, the leather is never shown to take any damage. Presumably, based on Hancock's own comments about how tight it is, he has a "force-field" similar to Superman's. | |

In The Universe of RWBY, someone's aura, an energy derived from their souls, can create a forcefield which also protects clothes and make weapons sharper. In fact a nearly depleted aura allowed someone to go through a lava pillar and just end up unable to fight and covered in ashes. | |

In Black Lightning (2018), the titular hero's new suit has a nanoweave that focuses and amplifies his powers, as well as being bulletproof. The suit also allows Jefferson to fly by projecting electrical blasts out of his hands downward. Later on, the suit's maker Gambi also agrees to make a bulletproof suit for Anissa (AKA Thunder). | |

Mixed usage in Dragon Ball, sometimes a big beam attack damages clothing, and sometimes it doesn't. Notable instance in Goku's first fight with Vegeta, Goku's shirt is burned off by an energy blast from the former, yet latter in the fight, Vegeta's armor doesn't have any damage from him taking a planet destroying energy blast, but later shows that it can be cut with an ordinary katana. | |

Black Panther: Black Panther's costume is lined with vibranium, the same metal used to construct Captain America's shield.

The Dresden Files: Harry Dresden has to regularly spell his duster to keep it bullet/claw/fire/etc-proof. It comes with all sorts of cool side effects — you can clean slime off it by throwing it in a fire and then peeling the hardened slime off, it can shrug off most conventional attacks, it's waterproof because of the kinetic defenses, but it still breathes. Sufficiently advanced technology, his ass. Most of his accessories have also been known to be spelled — including a bear amulet with stored energy, his original kinetic ring, and his ten newer triple-linked kinetic rings. He's griped that he doesn't have the skill or money for the materials to make the enchantments more permanent, as some of the Senior Council does. In Changes, Lea amps Harry's defenses up significantly, to his slight chagrin and awe. During the ensuing battle, it takes so much damage that when the enchantments wear off (at noon — she's a fairy godmother from Winter, after all), the whole thing collapses into shreds. |

In the Whateley Universe, there is more than one kind of power-set to be a brick. One type, as demonstrated by the main character Lancer, is a PK field about and through his body, which provides (for him) five tons of motive force and absorbs up to five tons of impact. But the PK field extends slightly past his skin, to protect his clothes. In fact, by the end of Lancer's first term at Whateley Academy, he has learned how to extend his field over objects he holds, as long as they aren't too long. He has a pair of foot-long paper 'swords' in his pocket, and when he extends his field over them, he has short swords that have a PK 'knife edge' that can cut through a LOT of stuff. He has also done a similar trick with a baseball bat, essentially making the bat as indestructible as he is. How's that for Handwavium? Note that this is mentioned explicitly in contrast to some other bricks, most notably Tennyo, who had ended up entirely naked more than once due to Clothing Damage. Eventually, a wealthy teammate bought Tennyo a Chainmail Bikini made from Adamantium, which was the only thing that comes close to surviving what she can. Phase (the aforementioned wealthy teammate) has a density warping power which can affect his clothes and possessions, but he had considerable problems learning how to control it, which often led to parts of his clothing either disintegrating or falling off while intangible, or getting torn apart when ultra-dense. It was speculated at the time this was partly due to his alienation from his now mostly-female body, as he had trouble accepting that he was shaped very differently from before — he couldn't get his powers to 'hold on to' the clothing in the areas which were different from how he pictured himself. The Costume Shop courses teach how to work with high-strength fabrics such as Kevlar. And Kevra, an improved light-weight form of Kevlar developed by a student. And diamond carbon-carbon nanotubules. And Adamantium. There is also a Super Costume Clothier in the nearby town who specializes in this, using her power over cloth and several high-tech devises to make both student uniforms and custom supersuits. Despite this, most of these are not subject to the mutants' own powers, as more than one student had found out the hard way. |

World of Warcraft has no problem letting you dive into lava with a bag full of paper notes, fur armor and a wooden staff. As long as you get out before the lava kills you, there's no economic hardship, and even if it does take you out, the worst you have to pay for is repairs for the armor. You pay the same cost for repairs (10% of all your equipped items durability) regardless of how you died (lava, falling, being mauled by wildlife). | |

Completely averted in Claymore, where it isn't rare to have a Claymore walking barefoot and or with a broken armor because, unlike the titular warrior their equipment doesn't regenerate or stretch. Played straight and justified with their sword. | |

Ultimate Marvel: When Giant-Man grows, he winds up naked, and his 60-foot costume was confiscated when he left the Ultimates, leading to embarrassing publicity when he has to grow in public during an unsanctioned rescue attempt. Oddly enough, when Wasp later has to become a giant, her costume grows with her. | |

With Strings Attached has the total subversion of Paul. After being turned to diamond, blown up, and reformed with Super-Strength, he completely shreds his clothing as he thrashes around trying to contain himself. Later, after he's shed most of his power but is still extremely strong, he attempts to put on clothing and destroys it in the process. He has to be taught an illusion spell to clothe himself — which turns out to have unexpected utility later, as it lets him turn himself invisible too. | |

A common exception is Wolverine. His healing ability lets him recover from things that melt his skin off (such as orbital re-entry in one Joss Whedon issue), but his costume stays gone. One issue saw him take a nuclear blast from Nitro at ground zero; he recovered in short order despite being reduced to a skeleton, but he had to spend the entire next issue fighting in the buff. This one goes back almost to the very beginning of his existence — one of the earliest issues of X-Men he appeared in had him blasted by a fireball that burned off most of his clothes and roasted him. So he beat the crap out of the nearest mook and stole his outfit. Of course Wolverine is still often susceptible to the modesty retaining powers of Magic Pants (technically Magic Remains of Former Pants...) Sometimes, but just as often his pants get destroyed too. He just happens to find new pants almost immediately after a naked brawl. | |

Mutants & Masterminds runs mainly on the Rule of Fun, thereby neatly absorbing this trope, although a possible alternative rule is to allow characters to have a typical 'indestructible' costume for one equipment point (since Mutants & Masterminds works on point buy and one character point will buy 5 small pieces of equipment, such as a mobile phone or handcuffs). | |

She-Hulk has often been the butt of this trope's joke. There is a partial handwave in that much of her clothing is made of unstable molecules or is "approved by the Comics Code Authority" (for modesty purposes) however she often loses items of clothing that she is fond of during fights. Her shoes are a full handwave, however. A 6'7" woman with a body weight of close to 700 pounds needs some nigh-indestructible Jimmy Choo's. Hers are made with Adamantium heels. | |

Spider-Man has gotten gradually more super suits over time. Early suits were made of cloth or spandex, while modern suits are typically described as being akin to a more lightweight version of an Iron Man suit, making them this trope. His black costume takes this to its logical conclusion, as it is a fully sapient Starfish Alien that has superpowers in its own right. When the normal human Eddie Brock wears it, it becomes a case of Clothes Make the Superman as Eddie uses it to become the supervillain Venom. | |

In Dungeons & Dragons, items worn or carried by a Player Character are generally assumed to share the PC's Saving Throw values and are usually unaffected by area effects, meaning that a silk cloak can somehow become vastly more resilient to fire when a PC is wearing it. | |

GURPS Supers had an advantage called "Costume", which provided the benefit to superhumans of an outfit that was not harmed by powers and changed with shape/size shifters; essentially, it acted as an extension of the character's skin. | |

In Corpies, Titan has several copies of his Hero suit, all created by Gadgeteer Genius-type Supers in order to withstand a lot of damage. However, the work of a Hero means that he still has to replace them fairly regularly, at his own expense. During an "assessment test" against a local Super Team, another Hero wonders why Titan is dodging his attacks instead of just taking them, as he knows that Titan is hardier than that. Titan explains that, unlike the well-funded team, he has to think about replacing the damaged suit. | |

In The Flash pilot, Barry is given a special STAR Labs prototype firefighter suit that can handle the effects of his powers. It's later altered to become his costume. A similar suit is later given to Wally West (Kid Flash). The one-off villain Velocity makes her own suit, which is later given to Jesse after she becomes a speedster. Ralph's first superhero suit looks like a set of gray pajamas that can stretch almost as far as Ralph himself. Later on, though, Cisco makes him a new suit that looks far sleeker and can also stretch. For the villain, Savitar's armor allows him to survive speeds far in excess of what most speedsters are capable of. It also has a number of other properties such as retractable metal spikes and autonomous operation. In the 90s show, it was stated that the Flash's costume was originally a prototype deep sea diving suit that was designed to withstand incredible amounts of pressure, explaining why it doesn't disintegrate whenever he uses his powers. | |

An especially egregious example is the duel of Cloud and Sephiroth in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. The duelists slice sections of skyscraper in two, or tear them to pieces, but their swords themselves survive the impact. Granted, Cloud's sword has to be over 30-50 pounds of solid, fine steel, but his opponent is using a long, thin katana! Then again, Katanas Are Just Better... | |

Angband (and its variants) also has item damage, though with a slightly simpler model. Actually, most roguelikes probably avert this trope. In the Tales of Maj'Eyal variant, using various area effect spells to get rid of anything lesser than an ego/artifact level item is a very efficient method to deal with the increasingly high number of item you'd consider worthless as you level up. |

Superman: Clark Kent has no problem diving into the center of the sun without even leaving scorch marks on his spandex booties, so having bullets bounce off without ripping the material isn't exactly attention-getting. Pre-Crisis, this was explained by his wearing a "super suit" made from Kryptonian materials. In Kryptonite Nevermore, Superman's indestructible costume saves him from being badly injured when a crook shoots him right when he is severely weakened. Post-Crisis, it was explained that the same force that made his skin nigh-impregnable transferred the quality to skintight costumes (thus allowing for dramatic rips of the cape, as well). Similarly, his glasses are fashioned from pieces of the windshield of the rocket that brought him to Earth, so as to allow his heat vision to be used without melting his glasses. Although whether his Eye Beams generate heat throughout their length or only where they converge varies according to artist and writer. He's been shown to be able to generate points of heat within objects while others show parallel holes where his heat vision burned its way in. Post-Flashpoint, Superman wears skintight Kryptonian armor that is as nigh-invulnerable as he is. Prior to finding the armor, he wore Civvie Spandex that would tear apart when he was damaged. In Superman: Secret Origin, it was explained that Superman's costume was made from the blankets he was wrapped up in when he came to earth. As a result, having come from his home world, they were nearly as invulnerable as he was, so much, in fact that his heat vision was the only thing capable of cutting through it (Jonathan Kent's chainsaw was even destroyed trying to cut it). Martha Kent saw it as necessary since anything else would rip easily if he continued to perform heroic acts In The Supergirl From Krypton (1959), Alura makes her daughter's costume, saying that it will become indestructible super-cloth on Earth, which explains how Supergirl can fly through a supernova without ruining it. Pre-Crisis Supergirl occasionally had to wear a suit made from normal cloth which got torn or burned the whole time. In Supergirl (1982), she saves two persons from a cascade of molten steel by using her cape to shield them. (Clearly inspired by the Superman cartoon seen in the page image.) In 2011 storyline Last Daughter of Krypton, her costume is Kryptonian armor and nearly as indestructible as her. In Starfire's Revenge, Kara wears a Kryptonian harness called Exo-Skeleta-Cyborg which grants Super-Strength under her invulnerable costume. Said invulnerable costume saves her life when she is lowered into a vat of acid after her powers have been nullified, since she survives by completely wrapping herself up in her indestructible cape. The Girl with the X-Ray Mind: As testing his newfound flight power, Lex Luthor notices his prison clothes are being burned by the friction of the air, so he breaks into the Metropolis Superman Museum and steals an indestructible alien costume. In The Strange Revenge of Lena Luthor, Supergirl uses her indestructible cape to shield her friend Lena from an explosion caused by telekinetic villain Mad-Bomber. In Let My People Grow!, Superman uses his own cape to shield himself from Brainiac's nerve-wracking shockwave weapon. |

In Animorphs, the characters couldn't figure out how to morph clothing at first, leading to two occasions when Tobias morphed out of his clothes and demorphed naked. Cassie somehow figures out that tight clothing, like spandex or bike shorts, will morph with you, so after the first book the characters have standard "morphing suits" they wear under their normal outfits. A later book mentions something about their powers creating a "morphing field" around them, which may have something to do with it. The ability to morph clothes is also related to one's proficiency with morphing. Cassie, the best morpher among the Animorphs, is the first to figure out how to morph clothing. Later, the team crosses paths with a young female Andalite who can morph normal, non-skintight clothes due to her advanced skill. | |

My Hero Academia: Hero costumes are made by a special company (or Gadgeteer Genius students in the Support Class) to work with whatever abilities the Heroes have. Sometimes it's sort of combined with the above: for example, Mirio's Intangibility causes him to phase through normal clothing, so his costume is actually made from his own hair. Likewise, Mineta's gloves can touch his sticky balls without problem because they're made using the special substance that his scalp exudes. On the other hand, no one's figured out how to make optionally-invisible clothes for Toru yet, so she spends most of her time buck-naked. | |

In One Piece, it is explicitly stated that the Logia Devil Fruit powers also make the user's clothing affected by their powers — it transforms along with its wearer. Other powers and even badass normalness also usually affect the clothing: when Luffy inflates to giant size, his clothes grow with him, Chopper's pants pretty much come from the same brand as Hulk's, Sanji's suits do not burn when he sets his legs on fire (with air friction), Zoro's clothes do rip, a bit, but nowhere to a degree you'd expect from something that was in the path of a sword strike that slices buildings like pizza. When someone in the question corner asked why Ms. Doublefinger's spike powers don't rip her clothes, Oda basically says that if he had that happen it would change the tone of the comic quite a bit. In general, most Devil Fruit powers change along with the user, or are unaffected by said user's powers. According to Oda, this is because the manga would have too much unnecessary nudity if the Clothing Damage was portrayed realistically. Still, there are some Devil Fruits that don't affect clothing, like Jewelry Bonney and Ain's deaging abilities, or Honey Queen's Logia fruit. |

Martha Kent saw it as necessary since anything else would rip easily if he continued to perform heroic acts | |

Subverted in Nox. If you don't take care of your weapons and armor, they will break. If you take your armor off and leave it on the lava, it won't sink, it'll just quickly lose vitality, then break. There are only really three types of items that never break: potions (despite being made of glass), the clothes that came from PC's home world with him and the Cosmic Keystone. | |

In Juxtapose, Izuku's first costume is made of a unique space-age polymer that involves combining artificial spider silk with a variety of other materials. The result is a flexible and comfortable costume that happens to be resistant to nearly any kind of punishment, making it fireproof, bulletproof, coldproof among other things. The accompanying helmet is durable and cushioned to protect him from wind and blunt impacts and is equipped with communications system hooked up to a satellite launched up by Mei herself. The helmet can even fold up into a set of headphones with a mic for when he wants to talk to people face-to-face. The costume is also equipped to work in a vacuum, going airtight at a moment's notice and having oxygen canisters attached in case of an emergency. Better still, the entire outfit is treated with his DNA, meaning that he can use his Quirk with it without a problem. He nearly faints when the cost of producing such an amazing costume is pointed out to him, but it gets laughed off when Mei reveals that Momo had made most of it with her Quirk and that he just owes her a few lunches. | |

Pretty much every Final Fantasy character. The Ribbon you're wearing to protect from status ailments isn't so much as scratched by a ten-foot iron meteor dropping on you. An especially egregious example is the duel of Cloud and Sephiroth in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. The duelists slice sections of skyscraper in two, or tear them to pieces, but their swords themselves survive the impact. Granted, Cloud's sword has to be over 30-50 pounds of solid, fine steel, but his opponent is using a long, thin katana! Then again, Katanas Are Just Better... At least 400 pounds if you calculate with the density of iron. Most steel alloys are similar. Considering that Sephiroth's sword apparently was summoned out of sheer will (despite turning "back" into the other guy's dual blade katana which was dropped before the transformation) he might be able to will it not to break. Both the Buster Sword and Masamune were of course made with superhumanly strong soldier candidates as the intended users, presumably they are both steel-handwaveium alloys. Not to mention that Word of God says that Rule of Cool counts for all the fight scenes. And it should be noted that in the Director's Cut "Advent Children Complete" that Cloud suffers a good deal of Clothing Damage during his extended fight with Sephiroth. |

Spider-Man: Spider-Man's costume is apparently more prone to rips than most, but still keeps his ability to cling to walls. A sub-example is some artists being picky enough to suggest while his ability to cling works through a skintight costume, this shouldn't work if he's wearing shoes. Within the tie-in video game of The Amazing Spider-Man if the player is attacked frequently, the suit will begin to show tears, eventually getting shredded and Peter becoming bruised and bloodied. | |

Dragons in Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid shift their scales into clothes when they take on human form, so their outfits can go through anything short of a brawl with another dragon without so much as a scratch. This does not apply with any other clothing they happen to wear, and as a result there are several cases of the more well endowed dragons suffering a Wardrobe Malfunction when trying on outfits that don't accomidate their breast size. One chapter also has Tohru magically shifting into her normal outfit before beating up some delinquints because she's worried about the dress Kobayashi got her getting damaged. | |

In the next season, Gar's superhero outfit turns into a collar when he takes animal form, and returns to normal when he looks more human; Word of God confirms that it's also Martian clothing, except "programmed" with only two forms (since Gar's powers are derived from Martian's in this version, but he doesn't have the Psychic Powers necessary to make it into anything else). | |

The Incredibles had costume designer Edna Mode make them (and likely all the other Supers) super-suits that could stand up to their powers and do things like turn invisible in reaction to their wearer doing so. One of the fan theories is that Edna is herself a Super, and being able to engineer fabrics with such otherworldly properties is her power, somehow. In a DVD extra, Elastigirl complains about having to constantly repair her suit. It is later demonstrated in Incredibles 2 when Violet, having renounced her status as a superhero (and the NSA) after Dicker accidentally erases all memory of her from Tony, attempts to destroy her suit. She tries to destroy it in the garbage disposal, only for it to flail ineffectually. She tries tearing it with her teeth before finally throwing it against the wall, the suit still completely intact. | |

Ochaco's costume is similarly made from a feminum alloy similar to the metal used in making Wonder Woman's indestructible bracelets. Hagakure is the daughter of the second Dr. Light in this story, so her costume is made to turn invisible with her. |

Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead: The shark suit wasn't intended to be a superhero costume. It's a titanium mesh combined with a chainmail weave designed to protect the wearer from being bitten to death by a shark so the aquarium workers could clean the shark tanks safely. However, it's only stab-proof and Akira still feels the pain of the bites even if he isn't at any risk of having his skin broken and being infected. Getting dogpiled by a bunch of zombies out to eat him leaves him sore and covered in bruises by the time he manages to throw the zombies into a nearby river. | |

In Super Minion, everybody in Hellion's Henchmen gets a mask which is bulletproof and stuffed with electronics to allow them to communicate remotely, navigate automatically, and a few other functions, and which can fold into an inconspicuous wristband, along with a bulletproof minion suit. Powered minions tend to get extra features when the resident Tinker learns enough about their power to get the "tinker twitch". For example, Tofu's suit is designed to unravel along spiraling seams to accommodate his stretching attacks, and snap back when he returns to human shape. | |

In Amazing Fantasy, Izuku's costume is designed by the Support Department to his specifications. It's temperature-controlled so he doesn't bake in the summer sun or freeze in the winter time while crawling up buildings. His Cool Mask also comes with a helpful heads-up display, a Bluetooth connection, and monitors his web-fluid levels. It can also adjust for different kinds of light, though this isn't automatic by default and Izuku only remembers to activate that option shortly after he embarrasses himself while running late to class. | |

Discussed and explained in the Naruto fanfiction Sugar Plums. It goes into detail about a special plant called kakri that is woven into clothing at various percentages which makes them chakra reactive and thus much more durable than normal clothing. It's explained that normal civilian clothing has at most ten percent in the weave, standard shinobi clothing has something like thirty percent with high quality clothing like chunin vests being something like sixty percent. Any shinobi who uses techniques like a full transformation (like Suigetsu, Kisame or Konan) has to have one hundred percent kakri clothing for it to transform with them otherwise it'll tear or restrict them. | |

Superboy (Kon-El) originally had his tactile telekinesis protect his clothes, but in later years as he grew more and more into his Kryptonian powers, he relied less on it and more on natural invulnerability. This, coupled with the fact that his last costume was just a t-shirt and jeans led to rips and tears. In a story arc in Action Comics, this trope was subverted entirely by Kon hilariously losing bits of clothing as he progressed through a fight with a ton of Superman villains, from battle damage (tearing, napalm, an exploding gas tanker...) It ended with him wearing only his underwear. (Apparently, he's a briefs man). | |

In Durarara!!, Celty's clothes are created using her ability to manipulate shadows. Izaya wonders out loud at one point if shining a really bright light on her would leave her naked. (She gets a couple of spotlights put on her in Episode 12.5 and nothing happens.) | |

Fantastic Four: The costumes of the Fantastic Four are explicitly made of "unstable molecules" made by Mister Fantastic to adapt to their powers. Even beyond that, though, the Invisible Woman transfers whatever makes her invisible to anything she picks up, the Human Torch can flame on while carrying a paper Plot Coupon, and The Thing doesn't always crush whatever he holds into dust. Reed's suit stretches with his body, allowing him to stretch as much as he wants without tearing them off. Sue's original Invisibility powers only worked on her, she could extend her field to whatever mundane outfit she has on, but it would take effort, but the unstable molecules outfits Reed developed for the team allowed her to do it effortlessly. Once her Invisibility powers were Retconned into being force fields, it became a Retcon that her Invisibility was a result of the Force Fields, and she can make anyone/anything Invisible. So she technically doesn't need a "special" costume anymore. Johnny's powers incinerate any clothes that weren't created with Reed's unstable molecules, which has often put him one some funny or embarrassing situations. His suits can often even protect whatever he's carrying from getting burned. His skin itself is naturally immune to his powers. Eventually, unstable molecules became pretty standard for Marvel superheroes, or at least for the ones who are either on good terms with the Fantastic Four or rich enough to just buy the stuff (there being a substantial overlap in those groups, of course). |

In The Last Daughter, Taylor's second costume is a Kryptonian biosuit that is almost indestructible. | |

In Fantastic Four (2005), their costumes are specified to be made from unstable molecules so got the same powers as their wearers. Interestingly we don't see a Thing costume that's turned to rock. By the time of Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Sue has learned to turn other clothes invisible as well as her super suit. | |
