>>6305244I agree. I think this is something the MCU actually does pretty well--they modernize the lines of their costumes and add different textures and stuff, but for the most part they stay pretty iconic and recognizable. They even have some fun with this sometimes, like Cap's cheesy original costume when he was promoting war bonds.
One of the worst examples I can think of in recent memory is the first X-Men movie. If you showed a photo of the cast to a casual passerby with zero context, they might be hard-pressed to identify this gang of people wearing identical black leather suits. But if you showed that same person MCU Cap, you could be damn sure they'd probably know it was Captain America.
