Mobile Infantry
The mobile infantry costume is the combat uniform seen throughout the Starship Troopers movies. There are many variations but they all follow the same general breakdown.

Standard Combat Uniform
The standard combat uniform consists of the following; 

 

 M3 Tactical Helmet 

 Torso Armor 

 Uniform Jacket 

 Combat pants 

 Drop-leg thigh holster 

 Belted Spats 

 Combat Boots 

 

 Headwear 

 There are two general options for headwear, the tactical helmet, or, a beret. 

 Helmet 

 

 M3 Tactical Helmet. Usually made from a hard material (Resin or 3D Print) but EVA foam is possible but harder to make it look accurate.

 This has been used by many members of the Starship Troopers of Dragon Con group, it does require a bit of modifying to make the top dome part feel less egg-like 

 

 

 

 

 

 Beret 

 A wool black beret with a patch is recommended if not wearing armor or the MI jacket.
