Pre-TOS Star Trek Uniforms?

[MedwedianPresident]

Anyone has ideas on uniforms for the star fleet to be worn during the 2170s, 2180s, and up to 2225 (where the Kelvin uniforms were probably introduced)?

I personally think that by 2170 the 2160's style jumpsuits will be replaced with two-piece uniforms; the colours of the breastpatches might change to black and now the shirt colour will be signalising whether a person is from command, security or science. Captain (now admiral or so) Archer will as such wear a pale yellow jacket or something like this. The breastpatches will retain their ENT-era form until probably the late 2180's, where it will be replaced with the smooth "rucksack-bearer" style patches. Until around 2200 the ship's insignia is worn on the shoulder.

After the 2210's the uniforms will slowly start to go towards the Kelvin-era ones with a temporary colour switcheroo - the colours would become darker. By 2238-2240 the colours would be brought back to the ones used in the late 22nd century. The uniforms would go into their Pike era and then into the early TOS era.

I think you'll find that the 2170s were officially the Federation's "dress down decade" and most people just wore jeans and a t-shirt. Except for that one guy who always took it too far and wore a hoodie covered in swear words.

This should be in the Space Lounge, not Science Labs.

if you've seen star trek enterprise you'll notice the uniforms worn were jumpsuits with the different color stripes on the shoulders

Yeah, unless you want to get into the chemistry of what the uniforms are made out of, Lounge seems a better location for this.
