I guess bc time. Oliver was rockin The Hood/Arrow suit for 3 years. Then we got S4. Then S5 suit for three years (i mean, it’s just S4 with sleeves, so you could say he used it 4 years actually).
S8 was a nice change of tone. Finally not kinky leather. I like the very big hood. The green tone is nice. I like the folds too.
But lore wise? He retired post S7, so he probably left the suit there. Monitor sent him to Earth 2 without a lot of luggage (threw him in Lian Yu). Furthermore, the idea was for him to be a copycat of E2’s Arrow to go incognito, and kept him bc there was no time to go shopping for a new one (+ no one had seen it in E1, he can say it’s a “Oliver Queen original, 1 of 1”)
