“Arrow” has been on the air for 5 seasons now, and in each season the Arrow suit has been upgraded in some way shape or form. After the events of season 3, Oliver ditched the Arrow suit and rebranded himself as the Green Arrow in season 4, and in season 5 the suit was upgraded to include long sleeves.

The latest incarnation of the suit was arguably the best version so far, but the Green Arrow will be going through another change in season 6 as Stephen Amell confirmed at Heroes & Villains Fan Fest in New York this weekend that a new suit will be introduced.
Amell informed fans during the panel that not only will he be getting a new suit, but the Green Arrow will also be introducing a new trick arrow.

Amell was asked which trick arrow is his favorite, and that’s when he revealed that a new arrow will be debuting in the annual “Arrowverse” crossover this year.
“I like the bolo arrow a lot, and I like the arrow that I use in the crossover this year.”

It’s hard to imagine what type of improvements will be made to the Green Arrow suit this year, but it looks like we’ll find out in a few weeks.
“Arrow” will return for season 6 on Thursday, October 12.
After a violent shipwreck, billionaire playboy Oliver Queen (Stephen Amell) was missing and presumed dead for five years before being discovered alive on a remote island in the North China Sea. He returned home to Star City, bent on righting the wrongs done by his family and fighting injustice.
As the Green Arrow, he protects his city with the help of former soldier John Diggle (David Ramsey), computer-science expert Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards), his vigilante-trained sister Thea Queen (Willa Holland), Deputy Mayor Quentin Lance (Paul Blackthorne), brilliant inventor Curtis Holt (Echo Kellum), and his new recruits, street-savvy Rene Ramirez (Rick Gonzalez) and meta-human Dinah Drake (Juliana Harkavy).
Oliver has finally solidified and strengthened his crime-fighting team only to have it threatened when unexpected enemies from his past return to Star City, forcing Oliver to rethink his relationship with each member of his “family”.
