The Uniform, an Overview

Man, it feels like I haven't posted in months. Oh wait...

Anyway, though I have every intention of delving into each of the items individually and in great detail it’s always good to take a look at the whole outfit. Starting from the head the uniform seems to consist of:

  • Hair (most people wear nothing on their head) or a helmet with a brown stripe.
  • Something around the neck, a bandana, scarf, that kind of thing. Almost every character has their own variation.
  • A shirt, I suppose. Brownish? Maybe black? Probably anything dark in color works.
  • A red vest with gold stripes.
  • A long garment. This includes either the smock thing worn under the vest, or the trademark brown coat worn both over and under the vest.
  • Armor on the arms. Some do, some don’t.
  • The Serenity ‘Verse seems to be a fairly cold place. Everyone is wearing gloves.
  • Khaki/tan pants, most with brown piping.
  • Belt
  • Leg wrappings. Again, it must be cold everywhere they decided to fight.
  • Boots or shoes.
  • War gear. There are soldiers with on their belts, cross slung satchels, tactical vests, etc. in addition to their weapons.

    This Firefly Wikia sketch gives a fairly decent snapshot.
