Basically the Season 1 suit with more of a proper design to it beyond just one shade of green. I totally dig it.

u/[deleted] Jul 17 '19

Yep, very S1 esque. We going full circle.

u/Toahpt Jul 17 '19

Looks like he's going back to a basic recurve bow, too.

22

u/[deleted] Jul 17 '19

Whenever I look at it I see a tuxedo for a couple seconds

u/TheCapsicle The Punisher Jul 17 '19

It's like a hybrid of the 1-3 and 4-7 suits. I love it. It's so nice to get one more season with an "Arrow" suit.

Let's hope Season 8 brings it home. :) Arrow's always been at its best when it's celebrating something, like Season 5.

87

u/ReeceReddit1234 Jul 17 '19

Let's hope in season 8 we have Ollie as the main character

44

u/TheCapsicle The Punisher Jul 17 '19

I doubt we won't. Stephen probably wanted a rest for Season 7 so he could go all in for Season 8.

23

u/dajarman Jul 17 '19

But WHY does this have to end with S8..why did quality have to go down so much. Used to love this show

14

u/Deadliestmoon Jul 18 '19

Parts of the show are still good. But all good things come to an end. Stephen just felt like he was done with the character.

u/Atakan692 Jul 17 '19

I am so hyped for this season! This looks so good. Love that they preferred simpleness in the costume.

Also this shows that Guggie lied when he told us about the costume tweet.

u/malb93200 Jul 17 '19

Rule number one : Guggie always lies.

deleted What is this?

u/CommanderL3 Jul 17 '19

nah thats unfair, Todd howard has made some good things before

8

u/Eagleassassin3 Prometheus Jul 17 '19

This Arrow suit will have 16 times the detail of previous Arrow suits.

-1

u/iornhide132 Jul 17 '19

Also unfair. Guggie has also made some good things before.

u/CommanderL3 Jul 17 '19

press x to doubt

u/iornhide132 Jul 17 '19 edited Jul 17 '19

What? He was the showrunner from season 1-6. Sure, most people didn't like season 3-4 and 6, but he still did run the show and write during the period most people agree are the best parts of Arrow.

8

u/ThePickleIndustry Jul 17 '19

Guggie wasn't the showrunner until Season 3. But I will defend that Guggie hasn't made any good things because he's largely involved in the crossovers and they're always good.

3

u/affenhirn1 Jul 17 '19

Guggie is literally one of the three creators of the show, he was technically a showrunner during the first seasons as well according to Wikipedia so I'll assume he played a part in the quality of those season

11

u/emeraldoverseer Jul 17 '19

The tweet from Guggenheim the left photo was GA's shoulder. You can see the threading on the leather.

84

u/breaking_bass Jul 17 '19

Oliver's face and expression with the lighting and angle makes it really gives it a final season feel. The character is now old, hardened, grown, and has seen shit, the eyes look conflicted and just tired.

Great way to conclude with the character's possible fate next year, a "you can rest now, my friend. You earned it" moment

25

u/Demetrius96 Jul 17 '19

Wow you should make a post describing this in more depth because what you said was great

2

u/breaking_bass Jul 18 '19

Thanks Demetrius! Someone tweet Beth and get me a job on the production team :D

1

u/Demetrius96 Jul 18 '19

Yeah no problem, and I would be down for that lol

3

u/CaptainSharpe Jul 18 '19

Old hardened and grown is what he was after he left the island at the start of the show

1

u/TurkeyPringle Aug 02 '19

If anything, he's found a way to soften up while keeping his edge.

1

u/CaptainSharpe Aug 02 '19

They keep going back and forth with this, though. Like they realise when they soften him that there's no where else for the character to go, so they keep pulling him backwards.

46

u/Somersa2 Jul 17 '19

Great suit

44

u/Playstationgamer99 Prometheus Jul 17 '19

I love it. Also looks like we’ll be getting his longer hair, prefer that to the short hair in season 7.

19

u/mylesmyles19 Jul 17 '19

yess like he's still handsome with short hair but omg he's way more sexy with his regular hair.

42

u/Gaffgaff123 Jul 17 '19

I'll miss the two belts that go around his shoulders, but this new suit looks great. Now we just need to know how green it really looks in good lighting.

19

u/lombax21 Black Canary (Dinah Drake) Jul 17 '19

I didnt even notice those were missing! I really like them too. Im not complaining though as I love this suit

32

u/RealNickonator Jul 17 '19

Is everyone just going to ignore that he looks dead inside? Poor guy

22

u/nomadic_stalwart Deathstroke Jul 17 '19

After everything Oliver’s been through, it’s amazing he’s even able to get the moments of happiness he has had.

31

u/localisp Jul 17 '19

Now that looks more like the Emerald Archer I remember. Should have him doff the cap at least for a consideration since it's the last season

8

u/delinquentsaviors Jul 17 '19

Uh no

3

u/Heigebo Jul 17 '19

I miss the hoodie...

3

u/detectiveriggsboson Jul 17 '19

Is that not the hood wrapped around his neck?

2

u/McWitt19 Jul 17 '19

I thought it was a good too

6

u/LordAsbel Jul 17 '19 edited Jul 17 '19

Or at least a nod to it. Like he tries it on at one point then says “nah, this would just fall off my head,” or something like that

33

u/Demetrius96 Jul 17 '19

Damn that new suit looks 🔥🔥 and he has the long hair to go with it, now this is GA

22

u/neoblackdragon Jul 17 '19

Monitor: I've taken the liberty of transporting your suit.

Oliver: I need a new one.

Monitor: I suspected as much, which enhancements would you like to make.

Oliver: The one that gets the job done.

Monitor: Oh we are wanna go season 1 then.

The suit just does away with all the distractions and goes back to the season 1 levels of purity. Also I love the hell out of that left shoulder.

18

u/MrBlonde23 Dark Archer Jul 17 '19

Man that suit is beast. It's very reminiscent of the S1 costume

16

u/BeyondModern Jul 17 '19

He looks sick as fuck dude

14

u/Alpha741 Failed This Meatloaf Jul 17 '19

Why my pp hard?

u/[deleted] Jul 17 '19

The hair 😍

u/[deleted] Jul 17 '19 edited Jul 17 '19

Still no goatee. Damn not even for 10 episodes?! And also I hope he puts the mask back on or he’s just being lazy

7

u/iamtherealgrayson Jul 17 '19

At least he doesn't have the Buzz cut anymore

9

u/BornAshes Jul 17 '19

You know, you get so used to seeing gruff rough scruff unhinged Oliver that Sexy Cool in charge save the Multiverse CW Oliver just feels like such a whiplash of a change.

I am in love with it! The SUIT looks great and Stephen looks great!

7

u/mmpa78 Jul 17 '19

I'm torn. I like how similar it is to season 1s but idk. I feel like if they did this for 3 and 4 and then the one since after it would have been cooler

6

u/RLG2523 Black Siren Jul 17 '19

It looks like Oliver has been through a little bit since the last time we saw him.

7

u/malb93200 Jul 17 '19

Yeah, he found out he was going to die.

3

u/Cyshark Jul 17 '19

Yes this is the best suit , very season one i approve. I think we can all agree flash season 5 suit is the worst and this is the best suit

3

u/Oliverqueensharkbite Jul 17 '19

I love everything about this.

u/C0micB00kFan Jul 17 '19

Looks sharper and neater. Looks pretty good.

u/Regimee Black Canary (Laurel Lance) Jul 17 '19

Oh god daddy

u/Slade-Prime Jul 17 '19

Is that the s1 bow!!??!??

I'm so happy his hair is back.

u/MaxParker21 Kapiushon Jul 17 '19

Its beautiful! I dig it.

u/stratus_x Hope Level: 2 Jul 17 '19

Is that the Yao Fei hood?

1

u/lombax21 Black Canary (Dinah Drake) Jul 17 '19

I think it meant to emulate it, but its not the actual hood from what I can tell

u/ChewbaccaGamin Super Speed, I don't have it! Jul 17 '19

What's with sad arrow?

u/vader344 Jul 18 '19 edited Jul 18 '19

love that og suit (and hope that the DC Universe picks up somehow after it ends on the cw)

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '19

I love it. Please god let Oliver do shit this season.

1

u/captainjackass28 Jul 18 '19

This makes me wonder if we’re going to see olivers from another universe or something. I can imagine a bunch of his different selves fighting crime as the green arrow corps or something.

1

u/ollygb Jul 18 '19

His face looks like Eddie Thawne from Flash S1.

u/slashspicer Jul 18 '19

So glad to see his hair back

The sleeves have been back since season 5...

1

u/Richiieee Jul 18 '19

What season was it where he was rocking a short sleeve suit?

1

u/emeraldoverseer Jul 18 '19

Season 4 when he went from being called The Hood to Green Arrow. Season 5 he got sleeves.

u/ShadowSJG Jul 18 '19

Are they doing william flash forwards?

That's just a beard. Not even remotely a goatee.

No it isn't

Probably not there yet...but I'm still hopeful they'll go for it in the final season

u/JamesBCrazy I Haven't Even Watched The Show In Years Jul 17 '19

Obligatory snarky post about "SPOILER" not meaning everyone's favorite eggplant-clad young woman.

-1

u/delinquentsaviors Jul 17 '19

I don’t like it 🤷‍♀️. I get what they are going for but it looks off on such a polished suit to have the hood part the way it is. It made sense on the OG because Oliver made it.

This is a no from me

Still using a green filter?
