If Jedi wear traditional outfits, then why does Ani/Luke wear Black!

Both Anakin and Luke Skywalker end up in dark uniforms once they are Jedi. In rotJ, Luke is in Black, and in Ep IIi , Anakin is too. Curious, only those two characters wear clothe not from traditinal Jedi.

Luke's outfit in ROTJ is an amalgam of both the traditional Jedi garb (tunic, vest, cloak) and the color black is a nod to his father.
Ani, unfortunately, washed his outfit one time and forgot that he left his favourite permanent black marker in his pocket. Happens to anyone, tho.

Yes well Luke is a NEW Jedi therefore not necessarily bound to the traditional cloth (if at all familiar with them)

Ani, well that is strange

Luke's ROTJ outfit looks like the jedi gear from the original KOTOR, which I know means nothing, just thought I would menion it.

Luke is familiar with the traditional Jedi outfit, old Obiwan was wearing his.

Jedi dont have a "uniform " but they where robes as part of tradition. If you notice many jedi wear unconventionl outfits. That luminare lady wears all Black and alya secure (however you spell it) wears that sexy leather out fit with cleavage and belly showing.

seeing how Luke was the last jedi left. I think it was okay to throw tradition out the window.

or maybe because its not a strict rule, its just a tradition. Because Aayla doesn't where those same robes either. And some Jedi had green pants, some brown, some blue. Its a tradition, not a rule.

Jedi clothing is generally earth-tones, and tend to look similar (tunics, tabards, obi, cloak), but there's no rule saying that they MUST dress a certain way.

Luke has no connections to the old way so it doesnt matter, though as someone said it could be an ode(sp) to his father.


But Anakin always had to stand out, like modifying R2, or a custom starfighter in the clone wars.

I can see why it's such a dumb question and stupid thread...You probably have soooooooooooooooooooo much to do.

How many times do you hit refresh in a minute to see if someone posted something new in a thread so you can reply?

seriously. its a valid question. surely there's some thematic reason (link to Ani in 3, or pre-PT: a link to his father) and there's also the thematic reason that the innocent ideals he once held are dead. Also, in some cultures, black is considered to be the color of knowledge, so it can also symbolise how much more wise and mature he has become, which is also along the lines of the death of this innocence.

It's because he's a jerk.

Only jerks wear black and brown.

They don't match.

LOL OOOOK the REASON why this is foolish is becasue its common sense, all you have to do is not be color blind, and think about it for like 3 mintues, sorry maybe my above post was alittle rough im not trying to be to agressive, but jezz THINK i mean dang anakins clothes arent even black.

i mean of course theres a reason why they where darker clothes, Anakin is dark, and luke, was going to be tempted by the dark side, it wouldnt of looked quite as powerful if luke had been wearing tan
