    For rank bars, it looks like Disney is going with the larger ones for all "New Canon" GCW movies.  Near as I can tell, rank bars are the same size in R1/SOLO.  They look a lot more impactful in my opinion.

    Cool!  Thanks for the info/clarification guys!  For some reason people think I'm the expert on this stuff at armor parties   So the quick summary ignoring nuance would be:

    Warrant Officer: ROTJ*
    ANH Staff: ANH
    Staff Officer (Black Uniform): R1/SOLO

    Well I'm late to the party it seems. I like the idea of having the different version tabs within each costume (Staff, Line) and make it easier when someone new is looking at the CRL trying to figure out which costume to start with. This way all of the options for that costume is in one area.
     
    I do have to say I like having the straight legged option available and especially with the Chelsea boots, which will make it easier for new members to join the legion. I know that there's been more then a few times that people have had issues finding riding boots that fit them or out of their price range, preventing them from joining the Legion. We all know that you can't just stop at one costume...lol.

    Good question!
     
    @Hux any suggestions? We have the reference pics, a written CRL proposal and pictures of the Uniform. Did we miss anything?

    No one should be able to force their preference on others.  I may like the green uniform more than the ISB uniform but if 30 people want to come as ISB officers that is their choice.
     
    we’ve known about straight pants on officers for 41 years.  Now we are seeing them more prominently in Solo and Rogue One.  They should be a permissible variant for the black and green uniform

    So, I’m inches away from submitting approval photos for my line officer, and I’m really excited to add this variation for my second 501st costume. But I’m a little confused by the recent discussions on this thread.
     
    I understand the love for crisp officers with tall riding boots, snazzy hats, and jodhpurs—the pants that seem totally ridiculous on their own, but are somehow perfectly elegant and menacing with the rest of the uniform. But are these concerns relevant to the creation of this CRL? Is it possible to block this CRL out of concern for the purity of the classic officer? 
     
    And how is it a bad thing to have a costume that’s easy to build/afford? Why call people choosing this costume lazy? Don’t you want to welcome more people into the 501st and the IOC? It almost feels like people want the IOC to be an exclusive, elitist(?) club, and that worries me as someone just joinning.

    The uniform was seen on screen, so by the rules of the 501st we can replicate it, create a CRL and wear it, it doesn't (or shouldn't) matter if anyone thinks that this uniform doesn't fit into the type of the classical Officers.
    Just because someone wants to wear this uniform doesn't mean this person is lazy or wants to make something cheap. A good high quality Officer uniform is always far away from being cheap, no matter which style.

    I do not think that the possibility of a few people being too lazy to look for riding boots should stop us from making the Service Dress Uniform CRL or to include this uniform in the already existing Staff Officer CRL or Line Officer CRL, depending on what we will do in the end. Why should we punish the people that would like to wear an officer, but cannot find riding boots or jackboots in their sizes because of a possibility? Nobody shoots their dog because there is a possibility that it will get cancer or rabies.
     
    If I could wear riding boots I would. I wear jackboots that are 4 sizes too big for me with 4 pairs of insoles, 2 pairs of thick socks and an added piece of leather so that I can wear my bridge crew. I am pretty sure that other people also try to do everything they can to wear a costume that they like. Unfortunately, that is not always possible.
     
    There are 2734 officers in the 501st Legion, but only 12 of them are Imperial Science Officers and that CRL has been up for a while. There are also only 137 Warrant Officers and 143 Imperial Security Bureau Officers. The majority of our officers wear uniforms with riding boots even though that there are CRLs without them available. Why should that suddenly change just because we add another option to our CRLs? I'm pretty sure that most people will continue to buy riding boots. They are just too iconic.

    I don't want to get off topic, but since there were references to ESB line officer gloves, which I've been researching for my costume build, I thought I'd share these references I found, which show that Needa and Ozzel do have 3 stitches, and they aren't the super short gloves some of the other officers seem to be wearing.
     
    Needa gloves 2
    Ozzel gloves
     
    It took some very careful frame by frame viewing to catch these, since lighting and motion blur often completely hide the lines.
     
    For comparison, here's one of Piett. I know it's blurry, but I think it's still fairly clear that his gloves are shorter.
