1. Enterprise (closer to realism)
2.USS Kelvin
3. TOS movies (excluding TMP)
4. STID dress uniform (love the caps but needed a sword)
all look military and professional
TOS series look like pyjamas and nighties

Enterprise seemed most functional with the pockets. Didn't the cadet uniforms when Nog was a cadet have cargo pockets?
 
I love the "Monster Maroons" as kind of a service uniform (bridge officers, starbase officers), and is probably my favorite uniform, but I always felt that era needed a more functional variant, like a utility or tactical uniform, for some of the more rigorous jobs and missions. There were those field uniforms we saw in Star Trek V, but even those looked a little heavy and uncomfortable. I'm talking something close to what they wore on Star Trek: Enterprise, actually. Maybe something in between the Star Trek: Enterprise uniforms, and the jumpsuits the enlisted officers in Star Trek 2-6 wore.

Of course, they probably did have something like that, but we just never saw it.
 
I've revised my list because the ENT uniforms have grown on me even more.

1. TOS season 3, when they switched from velour to the jersey fabric.
2. ENT
3. TMP, specifically Kirk's admiral uniform and Decker's blue uniform.
4. Star Trek Beyond
5. First Contact

1 and 2 are basically tied.
 
I've been drawing a bunch of Captain/Admiral Kirk sketch cards in all the different uniforms and started having a chat on Twitter about which uniform is best so I thought I'd ask over here too.

To kick off I'm TOS film series red jacket kind of guy!

I like the original TNG uniforms. It's a shame they gave the actors back pain.

Kirk's Admiral Uniform in Star Trek: The Motion Picture is very nice.

The TOS dress uniforms were pleasant to look at.

I really liked 2nd season TNG era's uniforms, but I really liked O'Briens take on the 1st season DS9 uniform with rolled sleeves.
 
TOS all the way. I actually prefer the appearance of the velour fabric, but the more trim cut of the third-season uniforms. In real life, the velour was problematic, but of course, in universe it would be just fine.

The black earthside uniform from ST'09 (worn by Pike and Spock) and Into Darkness (worn by Tom Harewood at the start)

They look amazingly smart.
 
I really like the JJ Abram's take on the original TOS (post "The Cage" and "Where No Man Has Gone Before") Uniforms:
