Wanted to update you guys.
 
CRL is IN PROGRESS! 
 
Ill have it sent in for final review by the end of the day

Today I made myself a Box for the Baton and I'm very happy with the result
 

 

 

 
 

You two are going to be perfect for the CRL, glad to see we're getting this rolling.

Send them to me at Kris.kobus@ukgarrison.co.uk 

Me too, pics sent for Staff

Pics sent for the Line Officer and Staff Officer variant  

That's what I wanted to know with my above question. To where shall we send them?

Any news?

But he must have took it from a real (dead) Officer, so it might still be our concern.

Hi!  I watch this channel daily.  He's always upbeat and looks at the positive side of Star Wars fandom.  I ran into him at the 501st Bash in Orlando last year.  Super cool guy.
Anyway, he did a quick video yesterday about Officer's Uniforms.  Go watch it!
 
 

They were seen on the screen in ANH. You just have to watch the scene where Alderaan gets destroyed. I lightened up the last image. You can clearly see that they do not wear jackboots.
 

If this costume would be more complicated I would understand the reluctance to repeat mistakes from the past but it really does not make any sense here. We know all we need to know for at least the lower levels perhaps even level 3. We know that these guys wear a standard imperial tunic in black and olive green/feldgrau. We know how those tunics look like since ANH. It does not matter if there is a hidden seam under the belt or not. We know that they wear a standard imperial belt. It does not really matter if the strap has groves or not. It also does not matter if the belt buckle has a curve or if its disc has a notch detail or not.  We know that they wear science officer style dress pants in the color of the tunic. We also know that they wear plain black dress shoes with no decorations or laces. It does not matter what brand or model they are. We do not need to know if the boots are ankle high or low dress shoes because the pants will cover the top of them anyway. It also does not matter if they are made of real leather or faux-leather but we know that they are not suede, they are too shiny for that. We know that one guy with a black uniform has a rank bar with six blue tiles and a code cylinder in each code cylinder pocket. We know that one guy with an olive green/ feldgrau uniform has a rank bar with six red tiles and one code cylinder in his left pocket and two in his right one. For the lower levels, it does not matter if the belts, code cylinders or tunics are the Rogue One or the OT version. The tiny not visible details do not really matter for the lower levels. We should not be this nitpicky, well at least not for the lower levels. It does not really matter if we only have enough references to create a CRL with level 1 or 2, not every CRL need to go up to level 3.

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

So what do we still need to make this thing active?

As stated earlier in this topic, most of the research, reference and screencap-collecting was done by @PArmstr more than two years ago:
 

Wow this is well done. thank you so much for all your hard work, efforts and most of all reference. 

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.

They were seen on the screen in ANH. You just have to watch the scene where Alderaan gets destroyed. I lightened up the last image. You can clearly see that they do not wear jackboots.

And this is what the Uniform looks like in the field:
 

 
Perfect for more sophisticated occasions, like a wedding  

By the way, the shoes of the Solo guys look similar to the ones Galen Erso wears as an Imperial Science Officer. If they are indeed the same type of shoes, we will never know for sure, then they are ankle high boots. We will also never know if they are really Chelsea boots or not because we neither see enough detail in Rogue One nor in Solo.
 

I just took some screenshot from the movie:
 
1. There is a guy with two codecylinders in the right pocket and only one in the left. If I remember correct, with an uneven amount of cylinders, the cylinders majority was placed to the left, not on the right. Correct?
 

 
2. Here we have some stills from Dryden Vos' party showing there were even some officers in the regular outfit, with jodhpur-breeches and riding-boots:
 



 
3. And at last, to stick to the original topic here, there are the shots of the straight-legged-uniform:
 





 
Especially the last picture reminds me to the look of Galen Erso dressed up as the science officer in the Rogue One Visual Disctionary:
 

 

@Steven Nice work,! Makes me think about grabbing some more from Antjes fabric to do both variants of the pants.
 
I'd personally like to see it become it's own CRL as there are  at least three clearly  visible differences, four if the lack of gloves.
That's the exact amount of differences between the Line officer and the Grandmoff Tarkin CRL and nobody would suggest to make him a variant. 

At the Noris Force Con I was allowed to see your straight-legged-science-officer. And it looked brilliant. Elegant and "imperial" to say the least.
 
I am confident this will be added to the existing CRL's. It's such a beautiful addition for the officers uniforms.
 
Concerning "cheap" or "lazy": Having a tailor to make the straight-legged pants from e.g. a few meters of CosplaySky's extra-fabric (I am uncertain if they offer straight legged pants by now) and buying jodhpur-style leather-shoes will not be cheap anyway. Not cheaper than a pair of good riding-boots  
 
And how one likes the costumes from Solo or Rogue One or the OT or the PT or the ST ... it's up to ones own taste. So I take it easy if one does not like it as Long as I feel good wearing it
