Looking for advice on an alterative to jedi robes, i know you've proberly hear this mention a million and one times, but i'm not a particulary creatively minded person and this is the best i've managed so far. I'm going for the style of a Light jedi, the sort of typical thing they might of worn slightly earlier or after the jedi purge timeline...
The hooded robe is about the only thing i wouldn't want to change, i like the look of it too much.
I've used http://swg.sheylara.com/for the most part of figuring out clothing for my own jedi outfit, i understand its not been updated in a while so,is there any nice clothing i should consider thats been introduced recently?

lol... I wouldn't say no one cares. We just get a lot of threads like this.
Overall, sounds like you've got a pretty good setup going here, though I guess I do have a couple suggestions...
Ahh the Jedi do like out Crafter's Pants, do they not. 
Can't say I blame them, they look good.
Can't say I blame them, they look good.Lined work shirt is a decent deal, as well as being fairly BE friendly, it's one of the few short sleeved shirts and looks rugged enough to handle Jedi duties.
You wear the Rank Sash? Don't think I've ever seen one on anyone before, or sold one myself. Bravo for originality, or maybe I just hang with the wrong people.
Tipless gloves... meh.. see them on lots of people. Take it or leave it. Better than the standard uber-black Leather Work Gloves that I sell about 20 of a week.
Necklace. Again, bonus for originality. Usually Jedi prefer the Stately necklace.
Boots... ok, so this is my only real suggestion I guess. Standard Boots. The wrapped boots always look so fat and bulky.
Best of luck!

Thanks for your feedback, I understand it was goona be hard being original, but i'd thought i'd give it a try.
I think i might swap the boots to your suggestion, i couldn't really find one i really liked.
Thing about the bandolier, the others which can be BE'd seem to make the guy look too much like a soldier/commando type, which i dont want to make my jedi look like at all. The rank sash looks better as a symbolistic item rather than having a use, like the other bandoliers with pockets.
Again the gloves was something i wasn't too sure about, but i always liked the ubese gloves which i use to wear when i was a crafter back near release, and the tipless ones had a simular look.
One little thing i'm still looking for some help on, is there any belts out there which dont come outside the cloak (hood up one) or atleast meld well if they do?
