An observation on the pant leg stripes: Although the article (and most tech manuals) indicate the leg stripe color corresponds to department along with the undershirt, in the actual films there's some significant exceptions. Command officers can be seen to have red stripes on their pant legs, rather than white. This is clearly visible in the uniforms worn by Kirk, Spock, Saavik, (STIII and IV) and Sulu (STVI).

Although the "special services" color is listed as light blue, the photograph of Mr. Adventure from Star Trek III isn't a good reference. A review of the scene he's in shows his collar is the same color as Uhura's - grey. Interestingly, transporter operators ought to fall under engineering - gold. Is there an onscreen reference of someone actually wearing light blue? Any idea what "special" service would wear this color - are we talking Covert Ops or janitors? --[[User:Sorehl|Sorehl]] 22:40, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Revision as of 22:40, 17 May 2009

The Late 2270-2350's Starfleet officer models are the most realistic uniforms ever created on Star Trek, it's more believable. Other uniforms fail to in that comparison. Honestly, what organizational board would certify polyester tights as a duty uniform in a real life situation? While Star Trek may not be real itself, but if a legitimate organization was to create a uniform (for example the military) it would more likely we would see a uniform of this caliber than any other of the Star Trek uniforms. The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.37.212.29 (talk).

And your point in all this? If memory serves, these talk pages are for discusion about specific articles. They are not about idle speculation, as I have been reminded on one or two occasions. Besides, who's to say they are polyester? Also, please sign your comments with 4 ~'s. Thanks! ----Willie 07:07, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
Could somebody please elaborate on why the double breasted jackets in this era are sometimes unzipped to reveal a white fabric underneath. Is this something to do with the officers duty status - e.g; at ease, not on duty? Thanks. The preceding unsigned comment was added by 193.130.81.94 (talk).
What about the different vests? The vests were seen in Wrath of Khan, then changed (for the better) by the "last" Kirk movie. Anyone have any info?24.237.222.102 06:55, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
The security armor was seen after "The Voyage Home", as it makes a brief appearance in "The Undiscovered Country" about 58:30 into the runtime, minus the helmets. Does anyone know of a later appearance? --Anabasis 19:06, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
