New Zion FA Uniform

[Tbone]

With the break of the truce and the beginning of a new era, all of the LEs have changed uniforms. In keeping up with the new times and to better reflect the feel of New Zion, I thought it would be cool for us to come up wiith an alternative uniform ourselves. This isn't doing away with the classy, classical. Just having something for a different feel or on certain occassions.

I want this uniform to reflect what you think New Zion is. I think of newer, cleaner, shinier, maybe even whiter. I also think of a Zion ready for war, battle-ready, bad-ass. So that's what we're looking for. Kind of this clean, bad-ass look reminiscent of the familiar FA but with a certain twist. Here are some options we've formulated so far. They are by no means complete and we're still debating pretty hardcore, but here's what we've come up with as of yet:

We haven't found any coats that capture our feel without taking away the unique style (in other words the coat covers other clothing). The pants are a pain too, because besides our white slacks, those hops with a bit of white is the only thing that keeps white as a theme. There is no white vest. The hat is something that can be changed, whether just the hat or just the bandana or maybe nothing at all...that can be looked at once we figure out the rest of it.

We're also looking at matching female uniforms and how they look together:

i like underarmour; as to the vests/ singlets, remind me of borat frankly.

I'm starting to grow on the Underarmour. It looked a little ridiculous to me, at first, but it's grown on me. It probably also helps that we have some decent pants now.

I like it.

I like the way the female uni looks with the male uni, in the second post. I...don't really know if my vote counts though :S but I hope it does!!

I really like the black pants, the extra white on them reminds me of wings.

I like the Under Armour, and I can get used to the hosh chaps (am I the only one who thinks the white on them draws too much attention to the crotch?).

I still think we should use the Skaver boots for the male version.  The white sneakers look like hospital booties.

Since the original FA uniform is more of a "formal" look, which is mostly white with a little black, I think our "New Zion/battle ready" uniform should be the opposite.

I agree with manic I had a black uniform with a little white all picked out if anyone would like to see it.... the onlything I dont have is the white gloves

[Pirus]

well I figured I would post something that was close to the opposite of what we have now.  I have white glasses on btw.  
I wish I had a pair of formal white gloves but these that I have on will have to do.  I have also found other vest/pants combo's.  
We can always change it up.









I kind of added the close up just cuz I liked the way the light reflected off my glasses.

More to come.

I just dont like flipping colors, it seems to simple. A new look just says so much more.

[Strod]

Im iffy on the whole thing honestly.

But Im just contributing to the ideas.

We did try the Skavers but they go over the pants and make it look a bit silly.  I personally like the silver stripe Dada shoes.  And what's wrong with bringing attention to the crotch?

I think coats and shirts are still a bad idea, even using the white pants again in the new uniform.  It's too formal.  This is supposed to be a battle-ready outfit, you wouldn't put a tie on to go to war.
