I don't think this variation on the uniform looks that bad.  Keep in mind a few things.  One, this is probably some type of special outfit - maybe used at the Academy.  Also, I think there is a variant with a black undershirt too.  And last, the idea of a cap has been seen before.  Check out the pic from "The Cage" below (notice the cap sitting on the table).

Check out a new uniform variation for the next Trek movie. The little girl is in the film too - actress Anjini Azhar.



The familiar delta as displayed on the hat is a bit over sized and maybe out of place since it also shares the function of rank insignia too.
Wouldn't the federation star cluster with laurels be more fitting?


This iconic symbol has a great legacy...

"The Cochrane delta is the name given to the standard asymmetric energy-curve used by Zefram Cochrane to illustrate the energy expenditure in his theory of continuum distortion. (Star Trek novel: Federation)

In the mid-23rd century the Cochrane delta was adopted as the insignia of the Constitution-class USS Enterprise before being applied to the whole of Starfleet in recognition of the Enterprise's successful mission. The Cochrane delta was still used as part of Starfleet's insignia well into the 29th century and its origin was still recognised during the 24th century. (Star Trek: The Original Series; VOY: "Relativity"; Star Trek: The Adventures of Argus)"

Precedence doesn't make them any more aesthetically appealing, they just don't look good, IMO.

Yeah, they're kinda goofy...kinda remind me of the neo-fascist getups in Starship Troopers. Or the uniforms in Spaceballs. Not very Trek like.

No, not a fan and I see the communist feel to them too. I think seeing them in more context may change my view but, until then...

I know it's unnusual here but I don't have a podcast of my own.

After much thought, I think I like it. I like how the dress uniform dramatically differs from the basic uniform. I also know for fact that the colors we see won't be the same in the movie because they saturate things for the color processing and it might have a sharper color in the end.

Ok, here is a FAN MADE teaser trailer.  I guess when it hit the web some people thought it was the real deal.  It's very well made and certainly could be a shadow of things to come.  Latest word is we might get a REAL teaser by San Diego Comic Con time.

Teaser trailers are short little trailers that don't show much but "tease" you about the movie with little real footage - typically.  The video above was just made by a fan, but hopefully in the next couple of months we will have an official teaser to watch.

Looks like Simon Pegg is becoming the unofficial source for info on the next film.  He has this to say...

It is a continuation, it is a continuing mission, but at the same time it is a new adventure, a new situation, new challenges. The architecture of the piece is still there, but it is expanded. You will see more of the Enterprise and different environments and different ships...and yes there there will be and we are very very proud of that.

Maybe this time engineering will be a distillery instead of a brewery!
