Break away fasteners are a thing now. Line it with some Kevlar fibre and some good thermal insulation/fire resistance and you have an amazing utility device.
In public, it billows behind you, making you look dashing and heroic. When the shit hits the fan, instant bullet resistant cover for civilians. A way to shield them from the heat of a fire, or a small explosion. You could even use it offensively to tangle or deceive an opponent!
Unfortunately, it would likely be detrimental to my ongoing work situation.
Though saying that, the BBC had a guy who would turn up to work dressed as a wizard (think harry potter style). He was the reason Teletext continued for so long. He was the last one left on the team. They retired Teletext the day after he retired himself.
I’m still not sure I have the force of personality to not just look like an idiot try hard however. 🤷♂️
I wish capes were socially acceptable to wear again
And get stuck in turbines and shit?

There is absolutely no way in hell a bullet-proof cape is billowing in the wind.
I’d settle for a cloak. A nice leather, or heavy woollen cloak would be amazing for being outside on cold evenings.
Unfortunately, they are still seen as dark and ‘edgy’. Moreso even than a trenchcoat. ☹️
Stop giving so many fucks about what other people think about your fashion. You do you, fam.
