My point is, giving a bunch of characters a leather theme is a very strange choice. Especially when...that's all there is to it. Nothing about their design or personalities fits such a theme at all. It's....just there for the sake of being there.

The only thing it has going for it is "they are military people and military boots are usually made of leather" as an excuse. Which feels cheap, not charming.

I mean...sure, one could say something similar about, say, CRDL and their bird motif, but a bird motif is not really something you would never see coming. This "leather motif" just feels like a strange choice done with no rhyme or reason behind it, just for the sake of it.
