The way the cloak is swirled on the right shoulder for pinning is taught, with specific variants: most of the colony campuses of the Academe teach the Sheveii knot, with the excess folded visibly on top of itself above the knot; the Terracentrus and the Core campuses teach the Elnor knot, with the excess folded under the pin. The Terracentrus campus is the only campus to teach the "full Elnor", which involves the cloak slung diagonally across the back; this style is traditionally limited to admirals.

The Fleet uniform has been through several revisions (and Fleet Uniform Authority continues to make modifications), including several major changes early in Fleet's history. Now the changes tend to be minor; many officers will be wearing variations of the uniform throughout their careers.

			There were three major revisions from the original uniforms:
			* From the boned initial uniforms, the uniform tunic became a slouchy top that was flattened with an external bodice (laced!). This original tunic had a turtleneck, and the skirt panels extended to mid-calf. Since the rank badge information couldn't be easily pinned to the turtleneck collar, it was moved to the left breast.
			* The second, short-lived interim uniform involved bared shoulders/off-the-shoulder designs, both single and double-shouldered. The rank badge returned to the right shoulder, but didn't have the braid (since the shoulder was bare). Pants were optional in this version, for the Pelted with significant fur, but boots were much higher, above the knee.
			* The final revision brought us to the current standard duty uniform, worn today. While dress uniform had several more evolutions (struggling to keep some of the motifs of its antecedents), the current shorter tunic with rigid collar, right rank tag with braid, pants and boots have won the comfort + utility war.

			Additionally, there were some random experiments that were worn for a while and then discarded, as with the boots with furred inner cuffs and external sword belt.
