It’s hard to think of Wonder Woman without the image of her cuffs deflecting bullets. Although you’d think people would eventually learn to not shoot at her, since it is completely ineffective. Worn by all Amazon warriors, the cuffs represent a period of subjugation to Hercules. Made indestructible by the goddess Aphrodite, if the cuffs are removed, the Amazon would become mad with rage. These cuffs won’t cause madness and aren’t bullet proof, alas, but they will help keep you warm.
