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:

Some of the applicants I had as a GML had similar problems. One Lady got it fixed by a tailor (she did not tell me details how the tailor did it), some others sent the uniform back and got a new one with a tighter collar.
In total I have a bit of the feeling, even if you order there with your exact measurements, they seem to think of the customer as being obese and vain
. Most of those uniforms I saw in the last years were wider than the applicant ordered it, had the elephant-ears on the pants, the double breast's right upper end exeeded the top shoulder-seam and the collar was too wide. While fixing the pants and the double breast is totally possible even for amateurs, sizing down the width of the collar is very difficult even for tailors because you'd have to add fabric (which would maybe lead to a replacement of the breast-part or the back-part of the tunic).
I hope they will care for this in the future since they offer an inexpensive uniform that could be more suiting and more accurate just be some small alterations of the pattern or the handling with the customers measurements.

This collar shot is from Beckett. Is that maybe an evidence they are leaking a modesty panel? Like the ones in R1? But this could be a L3-detail in the end, even though it might be regardless if one has the panel or not

-Basic Imperial belt, but with painted buckle
Ah, you already got it

Have I spotted a black belt-buckle with weathering on the edges?

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.
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

Walking around as Tarkin last sunday, I was asked by a man if where a Stormtrooper. It took me a moment to reply because I was a bit stunned
I replied I was an imperial Governor. "Of Sri Lanka?" he kept asking. "Of the Outer Rim!" I insisted and left him surprised with an open mouth.

As a GML I sometimes had this issue on applicants uniforms. I used some screenshots to show them how that dart looks like.
In some pictures from the OT the dart ends at the horizontal line of the code-cylinders top-edge. Some darts reach a little bit lower in ESB and ROTJ. Concerning Rogue One we know the dart there clearly reaches about 1-2 inches lower than said horizontal line.
Perhaps we should keep the CRL simple there:
"There is a dart from the center of the collar to a the level of the code cylinder pocket's top edge".

Can one explain the origin of the prefix "ID" for the imperial Officers? I wonder where that came from or if that has a special meaning.

Hi Adam. Tarkins tunic is always greengrey/fieldgrey/feldgrau like the ones of all the line-offciers.
Since you asked about a rebels Tarkin in another topic, I guess you want to know the color from rebels. As you can see in this image, Tarkin has the more greenish greengrey/fieldgrey colored uniform while Pryce uniform-color is grey.

Sadly, I think that may be the case.
Would then, we have the ill fit, not matching line as an optional way to wear it?
A nicely tailored, lined up one for an "A" configuration and then the sloppy one as a "B"?
As far as I can see, I am afraif the was no sloppy one. So this "V"-Line seems to be the common way of this tunics pattern. I do not like the look, but I guess that's how it's used to look like.

When i joined the Legion in january 2015 I did so with my Stormtrooper, just a common ANH Stunt. At my very first troop a fellow asked me why I was doing a Stromtrooper. My answer was, that I like the armor and the style and feel good while wearing this. He smiled at me and said: "That was not what I meant! I see you and I think you should do Grand Moff Tarkin!" My first thought was, this was a silly idea. The more I pondered about that, the more interesed I became in the character. I ordered a simple CosplaySky-Uniform, found some nice leather-riding-boots, ordered the dosimeters and the disc for the belt-buckle, build my belt myself, tested the makeup and the haircolor, did some pictures and got Tarkin approved to be my second costume in the Legion.
But I did not like the CosplaySky-Uniform very much. So I started to sew a new uniform by myself. It took me four weeks and I was in constand contact with @bjsavage7 in those days. And after all the sewing there it was: my first selfmade uniform. Even though I used this uniform for more than a year then, I got in contact with @furiosa in early 2016 and we started the research for the real cavlary twill in the accurate color. The rest is history: Antje made my new uniform out of the wonderful fabric and that improved my Tarkin the most.
Besides Grand Moff Tarkin I have a regular Line Officer, an Admiral Tarkin TCW and a Scanningcrew.

Our dear Elevator-friend does not seem to be an Admiral because of the missing red line in the rank-insignia. Those insignia do Point him to be a General. But his uniform does not match. His uniform Looks pretty much the same as the Admiral from TFA. And now we have some pants-reference at least for TLJ:
His double breast still has this crappy-looking, ill-fitting, not-matching line there on the right ...
Somehow I come to the conclusion, they just re-used some of the background-uniforms from TFA for some officers running around the Supremacy to look busy. What do you think?

The correct name of the pocket is not "recessed side-pocket" but "one-sided piped pocket". I will edit this
when I get back to a Computer.
Done

Damn they are dark, you need to turn up the light a bit
So let's make the strap L3 as it is for Krennic.
Perhaps the CRL should include both versions as an option because both seem to be used in the movie.

@Paggeldiwwer Are you sure that on the last picture they also have the adjustment strap on the boots? They are clearly no FO boots, that's what we can say.
Yes:
And a few shots before they are also visible:

After checking different sources for the boots used in Rogue One I come to the conclusion they used two different types of boots in the movie: the First Order-sstyle boots and the Krennic-style-boots (with the straps at the sides).
In the VG we have the Putna AND General Ramda to prove the FO-boots are there:
That makes me think that al personell on Scarif has a different bootmaker. These Line-Officers here have the FO-boots too:
The ISB wears the Krennic-style-boots...
we can see the straps there.
In the Death-Star-Control Room they all wear the Krennic-style-boots:
Since we have These references we could assume that the officers on the Death Star wear the Krennic-style while the officers on Scarif are more forward-looking with their First Order-style-boots.

Otherwise what's the difference between this and the other (non ANH) version?
If you mean the differences concerning the pattern, we had a topic a while ago were we took together what we found out about that:

Oh ya! I just noticed that. The shadow doesn't meet the edge of the rank bar.
The shadow underneath the rankbar makes no sense at all. A straight edge with a brick-like shadow?
I am still uncertain if there are small holes or little elevated dots in the corners. On the left side of the picture they look like holes - they are darker. On the right side they are bright and seem to catch the light from the right which makes them appear like dots raised up from the bar.

The notches remind me of the ESB-Rankbars. They look similar to that.

Another Thing I noticed are the ranks and branches of the officers in the scene accoring to the chart provided by Glyn Dillon and David Crossman.
Here we have a Security-/Stormtrooper-Branch General with a black tunic and six blue tiles. His counterpart is a army General with an greygreen tunic an six red tiles.
And here we have two Security-/Stormtrooper-Branch Generals with black uniforms and six blue tiles having a drink together.
That prooves that black tunics and greygreen tunics both come with the straight legged pants.
