Starfleet uniform (2240s-2265)

Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek content.

The Starfleet uniforms that were introduced in the 2240s would share similarities with many uniform designs that were worn in the future. In a move away from the previous designs before it, this design featured a new set of rank stripes and division colors, which were rather dull mustard, tan, and blue colors, which compared to the bold colors of later uniforms, was rather muted. (TOS novel: Final Frontier & episode: "The Cage").

This design began use in the 2240s, and was seen in use to 2267, although new design began to be phased in throughout 2265 to 2267. When the USS Enterprise stopped off for repairs at Vanguard in 2265, they were issued with the new uniforms. (TOS episodes: "The Corbomite Maneuver", "Charlie X" & "The Trouble with Tribbles"; VGD novel: Harbinger).

[edit] Duty Uniform

The duty uniform that was worn throughout this period consisted of a top which displayed the divisional cover, and a pair of black trousers. In a similar fashion to the old Earth Starfleet uniforms, the assignment patch was included on the uniform and was included on tne breast of the top. Rank insignia was also displayed on the wearer's sleeves. (Star Trek: Early Voyages et al.)

This style was only seen twice, once worn by Commodore Hal Wyeth in the 2250s and a more simplified version in the same era by Captain Pike, it is very similar to the wraparound worn by Captain James T. Kirk in the 2260s.
