    I actually liked the Kelvin Timeline uniform caps because they looked like a nod to "The Cage(TOS)." I still don't have a problem with them.

    Everything about the Kelvinverse was cool and fun. We should see more Trek shows in that setting. I still stand behind my idea for a Captain Uhura and Maybe Captain Sulu movie or show from that setting. Also a story about Kirk's dad if you can get Chris Hemsworth.

    Captain Sulu for sure, in my opinion. Or a whole new ship with Admiral Kirk taking on the Pike mentor role.

    So, do we really have to wait until 5:30pm PT for things to start dropping? Ugh. Where are the leaks?

    Agreed. I never really had much of a problem with either the Disco or Disco-fied Enterprise uniforms, but those collars were just plain freakin' dumb. I do not get why anyone thought that was a good idea.

    The asymmetry doesn't bother me so much as how freaking BIG the collar is. Like, if it was a nice little collar like TNG that is just folded over to one side, that would have been one thing.

    Just take off the collar. Good enough for me.

    I really couldn't care about the size of the collars, I just want them to be Symmetrical.

    The Assymetry REALLY bugged me on the collars and the slanted assymetrical zippers.

    Zippers bother me less. I hate the whole future fashion of "oh, it's closed by magic." It's OK to be practical. The color size and asymmetry bother me so much that I just want it removed completely.

    The collar tab is the stupidest Trek uniform decision in ages. I really don't know what they were thinking. "But it's different" isn't a valid argument.

    I don't know what all the fuss is about the collars. I have a lot of issues with Disco, but the uniform collars never made a blip on my radar.

    People were actually wearing the hats, how did he miss that they’re supposed to be desk decorations.

    I'm gonna start my own little asymmetrical collar fan club. I love it when Starfleet uniforms are asymmetrical, and that's been the case throughout Discovery.

    I don't mind asymmetry in uniforms (See TNG, Monster Maroons, among others). But, a collar like that stands out to me because it just looks uncomfortable. It might not be. It might be the most comfortable thing in the world. But, it looks odd and so stands out to me.

    I wasn't a big fan of the collar, but it's not a deal breaker or anything. I would like to see some uniforms with some functionality to them.`. Go a head and hide closure's if you must, but dear god lets see some pockets.

    And they should use baseball caps, like Enterprise for away missions.....
