Okay gonna go on a bit of a nerd rant here: this costume is lowkey genius??? From what I’ve seen, there are a lot of costumes within the original Star Trek that just… wtf…. don’t make sense at all. I’m sure a lot of it is just because of the pinhead-sized budget and because they were just trying to think futuristically in the 1960s. The ones in TMP were …… not good …… but their uniforms in WOK and stuff were great.

But this??? This is kinda genius. The whole thing is very practical, perfect for Bones “I’m a country man” McCoy. Pockets especially. If I’m understanding the structure properly tho, the trousers pin to the shirt, thus eliminating the need for a belt or suspenders while still keeping them up and keeping the shirt tucked. The jacket just gets tucked in too, and it’s got tons of pockets. And then of course the coat is just there for extra security. it seems extra, but it’s so perfect. It somehow keeps the outdoorsy vibe of what we think as country/farm getup (overalls, chaps, etc), while also looking like nothing we have today and making it more practical than before. the necktie thing and the colors sell it. Idk, it just perfectly captures the “futuristic country man” vibe, setting it apart from both the country of today and the city of the future. The more I examine it, the more satisfied with it my mind is. It’s E X C E L L E N T, and I wanna know how they designed it. Also it reminds me of Luke Skywalker’s Bespin outfit and by golly I live for that costume.

Anyway, this has been overly long and completely unnecessary analysis with ya boi rusty. Thank you for coming to my TED talk. 🖖🏽
