An analysis of the history of Starfleet uniforms during the Lost Era between STVI and TNG.
I find this stuff interesting. And of course a Voyager scene set during this era messed the continuity up.
Followup video
The green wraparound tunic is pointed out. I really do DESPISE that ugly thing. More discussion of the mission-specific uniform variants here.
To nobody's surprise, Gene hated the Monster Maroons (too militaristic) and rejected all such elements for TNG. More proof that Gene had the unfortunate habit of focusing too much on the little things and not enough on the big things.
