Spoilers SNW photo: 'IT'S A FAAAAAKKKKEE'

Actually, I’d be fine if only a few background actors wore them. At least it shows that they exist in the Discoverse.
 
Maybe. But I think a small update, without the ill fitting Christmas sweater look would be clean enough to be done.
Have any one of you noticed the top hemline of the trousers shows THROUGH the shirt ?

This makes them look undignified and this did not happen with other series at all.
 
I didn't merge this with another thread because a) the OP brought some conversation-starting discussion with the clip, and b) because I had the same thought myself when first seeing the pic posted in the forum without context as to where it was from.

No.

Honestly, these are more professional and a better reflection of the TOS wardrobe that the Trek 2009 outfits. I'd put it on par with the Beyond tunics, and I like these better.

Strikes me as a good blend of Beyond and the 09 ones with the texturing.
 
There's nothing inherently wrong with the concept of a ribbed collar on a pullover shirt. Tailor them properly, maybe change where the seams are, I'm sure they would put in some shoulder pads. They would look fine.

These are the first things I’ve seen from CBS Trek where my first impression was, “they nailed it.”

More or less what they've done here with the shirt, though not the collar.

The collars on TOS were tricky costuming, because making they work like ordinary ribbed collars wasn't practical - putting on or removing the shirt would smear the actor's makeup. So they designed collars made from ribbing, or spring weave double-knit, and then installed zippers in the seams to provide a wider neck opening.

The SNW outfits feature more open collars and presumably don't present the same challenge.

The variant of the outfit that we see on some female cast members has a zipper down the front and a different collar. Some women on the show, though, wear the same pull-over that Pike and Spock do. Why one and not the other, for a given character? Might be a matter of their job assignments - security's not gonna want to tackle guys in short skirts, very much - but might also be costuming practicality: the women who wear the pullover variant have pretty short hair, whereas Una has a much more elaborate and bigger coiffure to accommodate.

37:40 on the video. The pants poke though like a bulge/belt which means the shirts are very thin and may explain the constant creasing. They also seem a size too large.
 
My God, I watched as much of the Trekyards thing as I could bear.

More than I should have.

The British guy, he, uh, like, can't, like, complete a sentence without, like, saying "like" something like four times. I had to shut the sound off and rely on the captions to stomach it.

They've got nothing on this photo more substantial than, "This really looks 'shopped to me, man. I've seen a lot of 'shops, and the pixels look weird."

It may be Photoshopped. Who knows? Who cares? Paramount Plus has announced that he plays James T. Kirk, and we've seen him in uniform.

Bottom line is, these guys have to fill something like an hour and a half with speculation and aimless chatter to make their money. Mission accomplished.
