In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, billionaire Tony Stark has over 50 Iron Man suits, while Captain America has a different costume for every situation. While at Ace Comic Con in Chicago, Avengers: Infinity War actor Chris Evans revealed which of Cap’s suits he’d be fine with wearing for the rest of his life.
Unsurprisingly, Evans’ favorite costume is the Stealth Suit from Captain America: The Winter Soldier, according to The Marvel Report. Steve Rogers wore the suit in the opening scenes of the film when fighting off a group of rogue S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, Brock Rumlow and Georges Batroc.

This isn’t the first time Evans has identified the suit as his favorite. “I have requested it every movie,” Evans told CinemaBlend in 2016, “but the people at Marvel really like a little red. They like a little red in there. Which is fine. It’s Cap. I get it.”
Steve Rogers’ navy blue STRIKE uniform is constructed from bulletproof nomex and kevlar, and has magnetic straps for Captain America’s vibranium shield on the back. It features a communicator in the right glove. The suit was originally designed by artist Mike Deodato for Ed Brubaker’s Secret Avengers, which ran from July 2010 to April 2015. The MCU version of the suit was redesigned by Judianna Makovsky (The Hunger Games, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone) and was issued to Rogers by S.H.I.E.L.D. for use during secret missions.
