• • Design: Costumes should closely match the designs seen in official Power Rangers media. This includes accurate color schemes, patterns, and insignia.
  • Materials: Use quality materials that mimic the texture and look of the screen-used costumes. Lycra, spandex, and other stretch fabrics are commonly used for the suits.

• • Quality: Helmets should be sturdy and well-made, capable of enduring regular wear. They should also have a smooth finish and be painted to match the costume.
  • Fit: Helmets should fit comfortably and securely. Consider adding foam padding for extra comfort and stability.
  • Visibility and Safety: Ensure that helmets provide good visibility and ventilation. Avoid obstructing your vision significantly.

• • Style: Unmorphed Ranger costumes should represent the casual, everyday clothing of the character as seen in the show or movie. This includes matching the character’s typical color scheme and style.
  • Recognition: Even in casual attire, the character should be easily recognizable. Use signature pieces of clothing or accessories that are associated with the character.
  • Color Coordination: Stick to the primary color of your Ranger character. For example, a Red Ranger should predominantly wear red clothing.
  • Signature Items: Include signature items such as jackets, vests, or specific accessories that are iconic to the character. For instance, Tommy Oliver’s green vest for the Green Ranger.
  • Comfort and Practicality: Ensure that the clothing is comfortable and practical for attending events or conventions. Casual clothing should allow for ease of movement.
  • Footwear: Wear appropriate footwear that matches the character’s style. Avoid overly flashy or modern styles that do not fit the character’s look.
  • Communicator or Morpher: A Power Ranger communicator or Morpher may be required to participate in events. If you do not have one, the club may be able to loan you one if available.
  • Attention to Detail: Pay attention to smaller details that can enhance the overall look, such as matching belts, wristbands, or necklaces.

4. Additional Rules and Recommendations

• • Approval Process: All costumes must be approved by the club's costume committee before being worn at events. Submit photos and a brief description of your costume for review.
  • Upkeep: Keep your costume in good condition. Regularly check for and repair any damage or wear.

• • Mobility: Ensure that your costume allows for adequate movement. Avoid overly restrictive designs that could impede walking, running, or general movement.
  • Visibility: Make sure your helmet and costume design do not overly restrict your vision or hearing.

• • Cultural Sensitivity: Be mindful of cultural elements in your costume designs. Avoid inappropriate use of cultural symbols or themes.
  • Modesty: We must be mindful of those around us. A dance belt is required to be worn in costumes that are tight and may leave any inappropriate imprints.
  • Behavior: While in costume, remember you are representing the Power Rangers brand and our club. Always conduct yourself respectfully and responsibly.

• • Consistency: Any additional accessories or props should match the overall theme and color scheme of your Ranger costume.
  • Safety: Ensure all props are safe and not harmful to others. Avoid sharp edges or hard materials that could cause injury.
