The lack of red on the costume shown on the second image reminds me of the one he had for the "Secret War" miniseries, which was a stealth variation of his classic outfit.

The WWII era suit has gotten retooled.
It apparently will be a retconned version made for this film, as presumably appear in later films. ![]() |

I don't think it's exactly a retcon. More likely an inaccurate recreation on the Smithsonian's part or an alternate version that Stark created that CA chose not to wear.

Or perhaps, the suit was deemed unservicable and repaired/'refurbished' a bit for display after he was dethawed.

And no wings painted on the side of the helm??
It does look like one of Ryan's other concept arts on the original film. |

Upon further inspection and comparison to the previously released art behind the display,it seems the suit now sports 5 red stripes.

Yep, it matches the mural of CA leading soldiers into battle shown in the CA: TWS News & Speculation thread.

Well Steve was wearing his suit and had the shield so in universe it's a replica that isn't fully accurate(or Steve had various versions and this was the one he wasn't wearing).
And of course film wise I don't think they need to jump through hoops to explain one extra red stripe. But seeing as how Cap was kinda a secret, I think his original suit is not in the case and he steals a replica. At the end of the day the The Avengers suit made Evans look smaller because it was tighter. For this film they made the suits puffier which makes him look bigger. In the Avengers, he looked big compared to Tony out of suit but next to Hulk, Thor,Iron Man and the Aliens, he came off as large as Hawkeye. Scale was Caps enemy in that movie.

A lot of people have expressed their distaste for the navy blue suit we're going to see, and primarily for the "un-Americanness" of it. I think that will be addressed in the movie. They've done a really great job in TFA and in Avengers of showcasing the importance, not only to Steve, but in general, of having a red, white, and blue star-spangled uniform. I think the absence of it in the new version, the "shame" it represents to Steve and the public, will be a plot point.
Personally, I do like it as a uniform, but I'm excited to see him wearing the TFA throwback by the end of the movie.

I really like their take on the Super Soldier suit. Even though I agree it may lack some red other than the red stripes on the leg; I think it looks good. Gives a bit of size for Chris Evans since a lot complained he looked smaller in TA.

That'd look a lot better. The movie suit is almost perfect, but it just has to much blue

I'd really like to see them do something with the plate male from the comics.

That looks just so much better than the Avengers suit.

It looks like his Commander Rogers suit when he was running SHIELD. It also looks really cool.

Seeing the Commander Rogers suit and the WWII suit in the trailers makes you think about how truly horrible the Avengers suit was.... I mean seriously what were they thinking? The actual body of the suit doesn't get much criticism, but I wasn't even a big fan of that part. But the cowl.... so bad. It looks like Marvel realized this, the new suit looks fantastic. I can't wait to see how Cap looks in Avengers 2
