That's a nice pair. Master Jaden! Did you use zippers for your leggings? What's the material?
I seem to have made mine a bit too tight, and the ankles of my boot can be seen through the PVC! But this piece would work really well with a normal leather shoe... I just need to make some adjustments to that the seam blends in with the shoe. ;D

Continuing on with :
STAR WARS EPISODE V : THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK
Scene : Darth Vader's Star Destroyer "Executor" - Command Bridge
These Imperial Naval Crewmen can be seen manning the controls on the pit of Command Deck. The scene takes place when Darth Vader is alerted of the Rebel's presence and makes his way towards the then Captain Piett, with Admiral Ozzel and General Veers.
Close Up of the Imperial Naval Helmsman (on the Center)
Apart from manning the control pit, a Light Grey uniformed Imperial Crewman can be seen standing in the background in the scene where Darth Vader have "accepted" Captain Needa's apology....
the Vintage TESB Trading have erroneously labelled the scene as "Death of Admiral Ozzel"
and another scene where the Imperial Naval Crewmen appear again on the control pit is in my favourite scene in TESB. This was where Vader assembled the 6 notorious Bounty Hunters in the galaxy who responded to the Galactic Empire's call to hunt down Han Solo and the Millennium Falcon :
STAR WARS Episode V Type : IMPERIAL NAVAL CREWMAN Costume Requirements :
1. Single-breasted Light Grey overalls;
2. OLIVE GREY Imperial Officer type cloth Cap with Silver Disc Greeblie;
3. Pair of Imperial Cog (Silver) for both Shoulders;
4. Imperial Officer Type Belt and Buckle with Silver Disc Greeblie, and NO belt boxes;
5. 3 Silver Cylinders for the Right Shoulder - where the Light Grey overalls must have pockets to accomodate these cylinders
6. Head Phones and Mouth Piece made in Chrome Silver.
6. Black Leather boots, half way up your calf.

Thank you for the input, SITH OverLORD! I find this info very useful. It seems that only the deck crew wear gloves... and that they wear black uniforms. The field grays seem to belong to the bridge crew and other enlisted men. ;D

Thank you for the input, SITH OverLORD! I find this info very useful. You are welcome RedRoyalGuard. I trust that this very useful information will effectively GUIDE you to making screen CORRECT Imperial Crewman costumes from either STAR WARS Episode IV or V or VI. It seems that only the deck crew wear gloves... and that they wear black uniforms. The field grays seem to belong to the bridge crew and other enlisted men. ;D Good observation as the ONLY the Black Uniformed Imperial Crewmen were those Imperial Deck Crewmen seen SW Episode VI : ROTJ. It is possible that they are just wearing the Imperial TIE Fighter Pilot costume LESS the Helmet and Torso Armor.
CORRECTION, RedRoyalGuard the color is LIGHT GREY and NOT field grey that is worn by the Imperial Navy Command Bridge Crew and the Imperial Scanning Technicians. Field Grey and/or Olive Grey is the COLOR of the Imperial Commander's uniform and also of the Cap worn by the Imperial Navy Command Bridge Crewmen as seen in SW Episode V.

I just need to make some adjustments to that the seam blends in with the shoe. ;D Thanks. I didn't use zipper but used velcro instead. The material I use is a PVC or synthetic leather(like the one use for the sofa). You could find it in our local fabric shop. Your leggings looks a bit tight. I think you should get a thicker PVC material or use a backing. Mine I used a thicker backing material, but needed additional sewing works. As per Sithoverlord's pictures the boots are not really ancle high, I think you might consider reducing the length of your legging.

U're right, I should have some sort of backing material... and should have made it a little more loose...
Velcro, u say? Aah... the wonderful invention... God bless whoever invented it!
