THE NEW SC UNIFORM DESIGN
So many things to like about the new uniform tbh. Some elements of the new uniform we’ve already seen in the anti-3DMG gear along with the thunder spears but i’m gonna bring it up so it’s all here.
(gonna merge points about function and form together bc there’s overlap)
Reduced number of layers for the wearer (the old uniform had like 3 layers)
Less bulky gear (remember how big the sword sheathes were in the old 3DMG?)
Less layers + lighter bulk = more aerodynamic and better mobility
You can travel faster and easier with less bulk
A breastplate (?) to protect the wearer from being shot at, now you have an extra shell layer to keep you safe
The harness looks like it has more belts around the torso area (which is great, because now more of the gear is situated on the back and you’d probably need support there)
BETTER KNEE SUPPORT THAN THE OLD UNIFORM’S BOOTS WITH STRINGS FLAPPING AROUND
Form-fitting so it doesn’t cause air resistance but also makes the wearer LOOK BADASS
Monochrome for the win (at least for now); loving the modern style or at least what’s considered as modern in our world
The white pants days are over (now no more prominent blood stains yay)
The sheaths for the new gear run parallel to the wearer’s legs (the old gear had sheaths that were situated perpendicularly instead)
(the angles aren’t 100% parallel/perpendicular bc depends on movement)
Now, if you fall wearing the near gear, it’ll (probably) be less painful compared to the old gear because of the reduced bulk
Glad they kept the original harness design for the most part because you still have ankle support
Grips for the guns!!! So your enemies can’t knock it out of your hands
Two notches on the forearm to hold the thunder spears (if you have any more on the arm you can’t bend your elbow)
Good thing the SC isn’t fighting in hot climate since wearing dark colors head to toe will make you sweat a lot
It looks the gas compartment is on the shoulders instead of the back
I can’t tell where the top/pants/shoes end how are you supposed to put it on
I wonder what material the uniform is made out of? I think Isayama said the old uniform is made of linens (and leather?) so it won’t absorb moisture well. Does the new material absorb moisture?
Still don’t know what this T-wire thing is for?
