Description
in the late 2360s, the Starfleet uniform was changed from the previous design, mainly switching the division color to the shoulders. (DS9: "Emissary")
The next major redesign occurred in 2373. However, this uniform continued to be used on the USS Voyager and on the USS Equinox until the USS Voyager's return from being trapped in the Delta Quadrant in 2378. (Star Trek: First Contact; DS9: "Rapture"; VOY: "Fair Trade", et al.)
Starfleet uniforms were composed of synthetic polymers, and were replicated. (VOY: "Distant Origin")
Standard duty uniform Edit
By the year 2369, Starfleet had introduced a new standard duty uniform, a less formal uniform than the previous version which reversed the familiar two-tone arrangement of black over department colors from the previous uniform style. The combadge was updated around this time with the new Starfleet insignia, although some flag officer uniforms still used the previous design.
The new uniform was a loose-fitting, two-piece black jumpsuit with division color on the shoulders, usually worn with an open collar over a blue-gray mock-turtleneck shirt. Under the uniform jacket and shirt was an undershirt with the same bluish violet-gray of the mock turtleneck. Comparable to a utility jumpsuit, the uniform was first used aboard space stations before eventually coming into service aboard starships in 2371, beginning with the USS Defiant, USS Enterprise-D, USS Voyager, and the USS Equinox.
Despite being worn in conjunction with the more formal duty uniform, the new variant eventually came into exclusive use aboard starships before its retirement in 2373. (Star Trek Generations; VOY: "Caretaker"; DS9: "Emissary", "Rapture")
