The flaring on the skirt really flatters his waist, but it also slims the legs, which is the only thing that I think is not quite right about this outfit yet.
The slimming of the legs is compounded by the loose boots, which makes me think it’s a conscious design decision to clash late c20 masc and fem codings.
We know Starfleet is generally obsessed with the late c20 so I guess that’s plausible in universe.
For my personal taste, I think they had the right idea with the close-fitting shorts, but maybe extend them longer or have more contrast. I’d also prefer him in something more like a martial arts slipper.
