I'd have the boots made bigger and make the maroon red a little more like the classic red he wears.I'd also make the blue a little darker.Also,I'd like to see them make a decent black and silver costume for when he goes away and the suit we have seen could be for when he returns.They could have more than 2 costumes in the film.There will be a black and silver costume and I hope they do a good job.
Not just an american icon, a world icon, it should never be changed, not even for mon and apple pie

Couldn't've said it better my self bro. The Red, Blue n Yellow is just too good to be ditched for something else. It's what defines the Man of Steel!
DONT CHANGE HIS OUTFIT. IT's what makes Superman who he is. I can understand if they modify the material to look modern. But don't touch the freaking suit. It should stay the way it is. I've seen the new suit, it looks like crap. They need to go back to the way it was with Christopher Reeves and put a smack of viremen on it and kick it up a few notches with some Essence of Emmeril.
Superman is not just some fly by night thing. He is a fiber in the fabric of American history, you can't just put a production on to make money, time is needed to create a good continuation to the very good legacy that the late Christopher Reeves left us with.
Take that Hollywood, stuff that in your pipe and smoke it!
i agree that the color scheme should definately stay the same! if anything should change i would get rid of the cape. in a fight a cape has no use all it does is give his opponent something to grab! maybe the belt should be thicker and actually be given a purpose! all it does is sit there i mean his costume is skin tight he doesnt need a belt! and as for the outside underwear.....its just too damn restricting and its a scientifically proven fact that tight underwear can lower the sperm count. 😄

This is BY FAR the best remix of Superman's costume :
So where did this image of Supes come from? I like it; his look is more streamlined, like Shazam. If the S is too stylized for some, they can tweak the ends. The red shorts gone is a big plus, along with no yellow.
Is he wearing this in any comic, or is this a poster?
I would make the costume like the same one when Superman wore that darker colored suit the one he wore after he mourned the people he mourned after the imperiex war with no underwear or belt just pants with the same boots like the kind batman has but it would be red like always also I think he should get some gloves along with that.

I say keep the colours and cape. Lose the belt and underwear. Make him a touch more rugged, but realistic enough to keep attention. As stated before, Supes can't get spiky hair. But I also hate all the 'aura's, you know?? All that gay static?? And while youre at it, spike his personality a bit. Make him badass.
But why change the "S" to blue?
Why not reverse the reds and blues you have there?
Still not convinced the cape shouldn't be red tho'.
From the front, the inside is gray like you have it, maybe, but the outside is red? Sort of like Tim Drake's gray/black and yellow cape?

That was from an issue of Wizard Magazine, they had about 6-7 pages of re-designed costumes for DC's big hitters (i.e. Supes, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern etc.)
First, I'd remove the red trunks, and have the belt much thinner, brass with an S-buckle. This thinner belt would loop through the pants. (Superman's suit would now be a tight-fitting two piece instead of a one-piece bodysuit.)
Detailing the dark blue pants and shirt would be two patches of red, running up the outer thighs and over either flank under Superman's arms. His S-logo, much more obtuse, would take up almost all of his chest, and two identical but smaller logos would decorate either shoulder. Beneath that, he'd have a deep red patch over the muscles of his upper arms, both the bicep and tricep of either arm. Over his forearms would be two pointed bracers, red, which go up over the back of his hands. These are bound to his arm by tight golden cords. He wears knee-high red boots, capped in a square pad over either knee.
Superman's cape would be short, about knee-length. The deep red cloth hangs over one shoulder, bound around his neck by a thick golden cord. I think it would be really cool if Superman wore a cape that weighed about 100,000 lbs. for training purposes, and tossed it off before a serious fight.
pretty intricate description. personally, say again, PERSONALLY, i think the golden cords and the knee pads are a bit too much. nice one about the cape though. that is really a cool visual. imagine the cape just dropping to the floor just before supes kick ass. he'd be faster than faster than a speeding bullet without it.
