    Yeah I’m not sure I’d categorize all the 90s-era Star Trek onesies as “comfort wear”… especially not on characters with male genitalia. Maybe the 24th century characters didn’t care, but I always felt second-hand embarrassment for the 20th century actors!

      Looks pretty comfortable to me! 🤷

        Hey, I liked the male skants! I thought they were actually more conservative and professional than all the “here’s my bulge!” onesies.

        Famously the crew hated especially the first costume design. They did improve them, but they weren’t super comfortable by any account I could find.

          Because being trans wasn’t invented until DS9. (/s)

          Edit: Or at least S05E17.

              What did the old age virus have to do with gender? Or are you talking about some series other than TNG?

      Sure, but in canon the space age fabric is supposed to be adaptive to a wide range of temperatures.

      …which sounds like a tracksuit to me!
