Stormtrooper Halloween Costumes

Aside from Darth Vader’s popular robotic suit, black cape, and iconic helmet and Obi Wan Kenobi’s desert Jedi attire and Lightsaber, the Clones or Stormtroopers, as they are formally known, are considered to be one of the most popular Star Wars merchandise which are bought by Star Wars fans everywhere. The Stormtrooper’s simple yet tough-looking costumes have made them the unofficial symbols for Star Wars fandom as well as becoming a Star Wars scene fixture. Their laser blasters and clean, white body armor have become part of pop culture and has also undoubtedly become one of the best attires to wear in costume-themed parties. Stormtrooper gear and costumes seem to shout “nerd” a mile away but there’s no denying that these heavy suits are very sleek compared to other intergalactic soldier suits.

Over the years, Star Wars fans and even those who are plainly familiar with the Storm trooper costume have been designing and redesigning the Storm troopers suit in various ways. Some attend Halloweens wearing the full Storm troopers gear while others tend to wear the helmet only, since it is the most recognizable piece on the entire costume. Some wearers have gotten creative with their Clones suit by pairing their white helmet with bling-bling and a Celtics jersey. The end result: they look like Stormtroopers with a thing for basketball.

The popular Stormtroopers costume has resulted to other variations as well—today, you can find costumes for toddlers, teens, and adults. While toddler costumes are made of softer and washable material, they are carefully patterned after the original designs to make sure you remain in uniform with the rest of your Stormtrooper counterparts.

Although you can always carry any weapon of your choice with your Stormtrooper suit, it is advised to pair your suit with the same laser blaster found in the Star Wars movies.

Lastly, if you want to be a different kind of Stormtrooper, you could always portray Commander Fox Child instead. The uniqueness of his costume will help you stand out among a crowd of Star Wars Clones.
