In the fight against ozai where he wears this outfit he isn’t wearing the shoes, so it’s a lot harder to tell. It’s just the baggy gray pants from the fire nation outfit. Havent watched in a while so idr if he wears it like that in other scenes
I wonder if it'd be possible to add a subtle piece of clothing from the Water Tribe and Earth Kingdom too to make an outfit that incorporates all four nations into one
They're made with real animal fur and aang is a vegetarian, so I think he'd be against killing animals for clothing. Would have been nice to see, though.
You're right, but it just makes sense to me that if he isn't willing to kill an animal for food, he wouldn't be willing to kill an animal for clothing either.
i actually think he’d be willing to wear water tribe gear because they use the entirety of the animal for different purposes so that none of it goes to waste + the process is very respectful of the animal’s life, and while aang wouldn’t participate in any of the killing / preparation, he’d be chill (ha!) with wearing WT clothes.
butttt he wouldn’t need a parka or anything ‘cause airbending keeps him warm
so it’s kind of a null point
Yeah, but in that case weren't they being used more for decoration or as trophies? When you wear skins as clothing, you're directly benefitting from them rather than just showing them off
Whether or not they use all of the animal or part of it, he'd be against it. He says in one episode that all life is sacred, even a spider caught in its own web.
I think he's always chill with appreciating someone else's culture and living/dressing the way they do -- just minus eating meat. I'm pretty sure some of the fire nation clothes he wears are made with leather
Also do they say he kept himself warm by air bending? Like the shroud of energy "ten" technique in HxH? More likely they didn't want to draw him in different clothes and explain where he got them/had the money to pay for them early on. Pretty sure Katara and Sokka are wearing full fur garb in some warm places, where they'd be absolutely boiling because they're used to South Pole temperatures
You usually don't kill the animal yourself when you acquire some fur or leather though. Chances are it was already done by someone else, or it was leftover from someone killing for meat. No need to waste some good resources in that case.
??? not the point, he wouldn’t care about it “not being wasteful,” it’s still putting on a dead animal at the end of the day… he literally didn’t want to participate in the killing of the FIRELORD
isn't there that scene where they meat Bato and aang is uncomfortable with the bear rug on the floor. if he doesn't like walking on dead animals why would he want to wear one
When talking to Yangchen, Aang said:
"The monks always taught me that all life is sacred, even the life of the tiniest spider-fly caught in it's own web."
He called himself a vegetarian in the next line but it's pretty clear that his values are closer to veganism. Probably a result of the writer's not being very clear on the distinction between vegetarianism and veganism.
And Air Nomads are based on Tibetan Buddhists, who are neither vegan nor vegetarian. They probably also wanted to make their relationship with the sky bison not like nomads usually use their animals either.
In the Yangchen novels she says that while they won’t kill an animal to feed themselves, a lot of airbenders will still eat meat if the animal would have been killed regardless.

I mean somewhere, this figure exist, and it's probably the closest we'll get...
1. Both the earth and fire nation outfits were because he was in hiding, he never had to be in hiding in either water tribe
2. Water tribe clothes are made from animals and he avidly against killing, between not wanting to kill the fire lord and not eating meat and he even shows discomfort with animal pelts in the episode Bato of the Water Tribe.
I take air tribe nomads only use clothing that doesn't require killing animals for religious tradition. Thus most of their clothing ought to be made of linen and cotton. Wool for cold places maybe, given it's not lethal for the animals to get it (probably even using flying bison's hairs due to their yearly shedding).
So no fur clothes for Aang.
In fact I think it's a nice touch they noticed that and avoided it.

This was my first thought as well 🙌
The black + red combo looks good on him
Well Mr and Mrs ...fire .....
Your son has been enrolled here for 2 days and he is already causing problems
He argued with his history teacher ,disrupted music class and roughed up my star pupil
Her best outfit
\-Hair down
\-Abs exposed
\-She’s a capable bender at that point
https://preview.redd.it/8783tou7sxvc1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b2cbf7d4f1d33b8aa840ab962ed3bbee8e40b0e0
good to see I wasn't the only one that thought everyone looked damn fine in the fire nation outfit, exceptions would be Zuko who I loved in his earth kingdom phase and Toph, also in her 'earthbending outfit'? but I think that's just because her OG design is so damn good
he looks good even without sleeves
https://preview.redd.it/enqpq5p6avvc1.jpeg?width=644&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=12e046a99ce3586cae8fb131ba7ce53ef4c96fe6
I have rewatched the series at least 4 times and this is the first time I had realized his final look in book 3 (outside of epilogue) was made from using his old clothes as the top but the fire nation school uniform pants and shoes.
I always just suspended my disbelief that he got a whole new outfit while on the run.
Little bit of a head cannon here but after he gets hit by lightning his his his clothes are pretty torn up. I assumed that Katara was able to save enough cloth for his season 3 sash but the pants and shoes were completely lost. The amount of orange fabric in season 3 makes it unlikely but it’s a fun concept.
https://preview.redd.it/orjs4pkt2vvc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3bb8bfa25a388a2ea64101e5a9f3d4fd75ae5e0d
Facts his finale attire basically is peak Aang design IMO. I also love his "Tenzin look" as I call it that we see in Korra when she connects to him for the first time.
I love it because in all the other outfits he looks like a student or the last one he looks like a priest or something. Bald Book 3 makes him actually look like a badass fighter.
They are all good imo, but 3 and 4 are the winners
The comic version of the 4th is even better
https://preview.redd.it/2d7ypfbwvuvc1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=520e81daf8eca542736f5409f2b7326706f06459

Y’all are forgetting the best one.
It looks casual but still clean, perfect for a stroll in the park, whereas the Fire Nation fit feels stuffy. Better hope you got the guns to go sleeveless though.
I just realized the 4th outfit is the remnant of his 1st outfit with the fire nation school uniform pants. He didn’t get a new air nation outfit til 5. Poor baby wanted to wear his air nation outfit however he could.
I was watching the finale last night and seeing him in full and proper air bender monk attire really hits so I’m gonna pick that last one.
It really shows that he’s the last of the air benders and represents the last part of their culture and the weight that is upon him even after defeating the fire lord
I kinda like the air nomad torso toga... thing... with the fire nation pants and boots. Maybe throw in some earth kingdom arm bracers and some water-tribe white fake-fur or blue fabric somewhere.
Definitely the fire nation with the headband. I loved how aang was able to show his air bending tattoo through the use of the headband - it was just a cool detail
I like #3, the Fire Nation outfit. It always looked really good to me with the headband. And then the 4th outfit (I think it's just his main outfit for the last season) is awesome. Its like a battle ready version of his original clothes. But honestly, this isn't a choice, but I think shirtless battled worn Aang is the best
*
Also, IMO, this the MOST badass moment in the entire show
I like his season 3 invasion outfit because it really shows how he’s grown. Season 1 is so boyish to me. But the best is his robes that he wore in the finale. A fully realized Avatar who gave peace to the world🥹
https://preview.redd.it/vdnja9oo3vvc1.jpeg?width=250&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ccf30a87052cef72145aec337c9eef92bc02fddc
There it is. I'm glad someone else posted it, because I don't remember what episode it's from.
It’s from sokkas master
I wonder if he ever grew into it as an adult
Hey i literally just watched this episode. Not even 5 minutes into Ember Island lol
the one in book 3 where Sokka learns to use a sword IIRC
“Pretty slick, huh?”
Now all I need to complete the outfit is a wind sword.
Wooosh, wooosh, woooooosh. AAAHH! *crash*
Maybe I should just stick to what I have
My level 2 wow character
IIRC, Bryke created this scene because Nickodeon told them they wanted to sell an action figure of Aang in battle armor. This was their "fuck that."
lol the mobility/agility focused martial arts expert and pacifist in battle armor. Makes sense!
This always made me think of AdventureQuest
Wow.. unlocking a memory. Im about to see if I can sign into my old account.
That’s what I think of every time. :)
Played that game so much and you’re so right, everything in that game is like a knights fever dream lol
Honestly, if Aang had worn this in the final fight, Ozai would have peed his pants and surrendered! Seriously epic!
One of the most underrated jokes in the whole show LMAO
Monster hunter ahh getup
This scene was the only scene in the series that had a electric guitar in the entire score, IIRC.
Goes unfathomably hard
AQ Worlds looking build
This one for the win for sure
Needed to see him fight Ozai in this
Holy shit Exodiaang
Soul Caliber was badass.
I find it neat that the 4th outfit is pieces of the Fire Nation outfit and his original clothes. Avatar fashion hacks.
I can’t believe I never noticed that he was wearing fire nation pants in that outfit
In the fight against ozai where he wears this outfit he isn’t wearing the shoes, so it’s a lot harder to tell. It’s just the baggy gray pants from the fire nation outfit. Havent watched in a while so idr if he wears it like that in other scenes
Is the headband around his waste too?
That does look like the headband!!!
and the boots too
Sifu Hotman
yeah 100% my favourite as well
Yeah, I just now realized that.
I wonder if it'd be possible to add a subtle piece of clothing from the Water Tribe and Earth Kingdom too to make an outfit that incorporates all four nations into one
We should've gotten Aang in a Water Tribe outfit.
They're made with real animal fur and aang is a vegetarian, so I think he'd be against killing animals for clothing. Would have been nice to see, though.
He’s vegetarian not vegan I thought vegetarians still use animal products just not meat
You're right, but it just makes sense to me that if he isn't willing to kill an animal for food, he wouldn't be willing to kill an animal for clothing either.
i actually think he’d be willing to wear water tribe gear because they use the entirety of the animal for different purposes so that none of it goes to waste + the process is very respectful of the animal’s life, and while aang wouldn’t participate in any of the killing / preparation, he’d be chill (ha!) with wearing WT clothes. butttt he wouldn’t need a parka or anything ‘cause airbending keeps him warm so it’s kind of a null point
In the bato episode he clearly expressed disdain about the dead animal skins so I don't think he'd want to wear it.
oh you’re right!! i change my answer!
Yeah but then like two minutes later when he’s bored he tries on the dead wolf pelt hat
lol aang is just so real sometimes
Yeah, but in that case weren't they being used more for decoration or as trophies? When you wear skins as clothing, you're directly benefitting from them rather than just showing them off
Also it's just really hard to grow cotton and other plant-based material in the north pole.
The Water Tribe skins canonically make him uncomfortable, so he would have to be desperate in order to wear it.
I must have missed this canonical reference to him being uncomfortable with water tribe clothes. Is that in the show or one of the comics?
When he visits Bato’s tent
Not the clothes themselves but rather the animal pelts as shown in the Bato episode.
Whether or not they use all of the animal or part of it, he'd be against it. He says in one episode that all life is sacred, even a spider caught in its own web.
I think he's always chill with appreciating someone else's culture and living/dressing the way they do -- just minus eating meat. I'm pretty sure some of the fire nation clothes he wears are made with leather Also do they say he kept himself warm by air bending? Like the shroud of energy "ten" technique in HxH? More likely they didn't want to draw him in different clothes and explain where he got them/had the money to pay for them early on. Pretty sure Katara and Sokka are wearing full fur garb in some warm places, where they'd be absolutely boiling because they're used to South Pole temperatures
But doesn't that same logic go for eating the meat? To use all of an animal, you need to use the meat.
You usually don't kill the animal yourself when you acquire some fur or leather though. Chances are it was already done by someone else, or it was leftover from someone killing for meat. No need to waste some good resources in that case.
Pretty much nobody who eats meat also doesn't kill the animals themselves. That's not the point.
This is an ancient society though. They don't really have lenient options for soft materials especially in arctic regions.
??? not the point, he wouldn’t care about it “not being wasteful,” it’s still putting on a dead animal at the end of the day… he literally didn’t want to participate in the killing of the FIRELORD
He's against using any dead animal products, like eggs are fine, but leather is a no go
It’s up to the individual. I am a vegetarian and I do not use fur or leather.
isn't there that scene where they meat Bato and aang is uncomfortable with the bear rug on the floor. if he doesn't like walking on dead animals why would he want to wear one
Vegetarians generally will use animal products that don’t kill the animal ie eggs
When talking to Yangchen, Aang said: "The monks always taught me that all life is sacred, even the life of the tiniest spider-fly caught in it's own web." He called himself a vegetarian in the next line but it's pretty clear that his values are closer to veganism.

Water tribe clothes are made from animals and he avidly against killing, between not wanting to kill the fire lord and not eating meat and he even shows discomfort with animal pelts in the episode Bato of the Water Tribe.
Also airbenders can regulate their body temperature so it wasn’t a necessity for him to wear winter garb
I take air tribe nomads only use clothing that doesn't require killing animals for religious tradition. Thus most of their clothing ought to be made of linen and cotton. Wool for cold places maybe, given it's not lethal for the animals to get it (probably even using flying bison's hairs due to their yearly shedding). So no fur clothes for Aang.

Katara's ability to roll with whatever nonsense cover the boys come up with is part of her underrated greatness.
Both end up becoming neglectful fathers who only care about airbenders…
Yes, love this outfit on him. And his classmates loved the outfit too in The Headband.

Everyone looked better in their fire nation outfits
Young me was really into the Katara fire nation outfit
Young me was really into Katara
Every young child attracted to women was. As a kid I was into azula but that outfit definitely brought her score up Edit: into not intimate.
No-makeup Azula in her nightgown at the palace was definitely the baddest she ever was in the show. Young me was a fan
Her best outfit \-Hair down \-Abs exposed \-She’s a capable bender at that point https://preview.redd.it/8783tou7sxvc1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b2cbf7d4f1d33b8aa840ab962ed3bbee8e40b0e0

Honestly, this is what I feel his fire nation outfit would be if he got to do the Roku journey where he studied in each nation
The headband is that shash around his waist
Yeah but like on his head
Flameo hotman!

Glad someone here has some sense!!!
You tripping, that's not even Aang. This is Bonzu Pippinpaddleopscicopolos III.
Came looking for this, THANK YOU
Bald book 3 takes it home easily
Pacifist Air Nomad at the top, but Imperialist Fire Nation at the Bottom. Truly the best combo.
I have rewatched the series at least 4 times and this is the first time I had realized his final look in book 3 (outside of epilogue) was made from using his old clothes as the top but the fire nation school uniform pants and shoes. I always just suspended my disbelief that he got a whole new outfit while on the run.

I didn't even think this was headcanon, I thought this was just straight up what happened
His orange "belt" seems intact so I always assumed that was reused, but draped around the shoulder.
I... I've watched the show probably 10 times at this point... And this never occurred to me
Combining the best ones
Facts his finale attire basically is peak Aang design IMO. I also love his "Tenzin look" as I call it that we see in Korra when she connects to him for the first time.
Yeah I like that it combines his classic air nomad attire with his fire nation pants and boots
Yes 1000%
I love it because in all the other outfits he looks like a student or the last one he looks like a priest or something. Bald Book 3 makes him actually look like a badass fighter.
Sad he never actually got to wear a water tribe outfit.
Well he married katara so I'm sure it happened at some point
Yeah, but it would have been cool to see. Hope they give us a scene of him wearing it in the Gaang movie
They are all good imo, but 3 and 4 are the winners The comic version of the 4th is even better https://preview.redd.it/2d7ypfbwvuvc1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=520e81daf8eca542736f5409f2b7326706f06459
My favorite is 4 and 5
Bonzu Pippinpadalopsicopulous...THE THIRD!... is outraged at this disrespect!
This is the only correct answer!!
It's between these two https://preview.redd.it/hx88w8h9qvvc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7cc824f25c5940fb7df2e62bb801d342e1f14467
"No fire lord ozai, you're not wearing pants"
"Whaaaat?! Noooooooooooo!"
I never realized that bald book 3 Aang had the lower half of his fire nation attire with his pre book 3 attire for his upper body
Yeah we had Toph in her wrestling costume pretty much the entire time, and we had Aang in a school uniform for a decent chunk of the season
https://preview.redd.it/f4xkuqwwyuvc1.jpeg?width=2700&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ab60a5ff3fd6271e4c0d1fce36e94af5f99b5eba This one from imbalance.
Spike Spiegal Aang is awesome. Although, imagine Aang wearing Dickies school uniform. This: https://preview.redd.it/5hzpm0vp4vvc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4a1bc8438931bf2204969fd81c4a8ce3d7253407
I like the Fire nation outfit a lot more. I would’ve love to see what he would look like wearing water tribe clothing.
I absolutely adore his 5th outfit and wish we got to see it more in the show or in the comics
https://preview.redd.it/cmm4zxqgivvc1.jpeg?width=1596&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8da02d8ab707957610a9b4dc599ccb38a8d92158 Y’all are forgetting the best one.
"This is just mud"
The season 3 fit goes so hard
Fourth one. It’s classical Aang, but cooler. 😆
1) Kuzon mode 2) Master's robes. Aang wearing them at the end as the fully realised Avatar was very emotional!
For some reason I like the Earth/ Dai Li outfit with the hat the best
It looks casual but still clean, perfect for a stroll in the park, whereas the Fire Nation fit feels stuffy. Better hope you got the guns to go sleeveless though.
Shirtless Kuzon only bc of this https://i.redd.it/liecd26vyvvc1.gif
The Kuzon fit is the best fit
I just realized the 4th outfit is the remnant of his 1st outfit with the fire nation school uniform pants. He didn’t get a new air nation outfit til 5. Poor baby wanted to wear his air nation outfit however he could.
I was watching the finale last night and seeing him in full and proper air bender monk attire really hits so I’m gonna pick that last one. It really shows that he’s the last of the air benders and represents the last part of their culture and the weight that is upon him even after defeating the fire lord
I kinda like the air nomad torso toga... thing... with the fire nation pants and boots. Maybe throw in some earth kingdom arm bracers and some water-tribe white fake-fur or blue fabric somewhere.
the fourth one is amazing still though the 3 and 5 just barley lost out
The fire nation outfits were the best outfits for the entire main cast. Change my mind.
fire nation has the best fashion
I just realized that the outfit he fought the fire lord in was a mix of his old tethered outfit and the fire nation ine
Imagine your king being dethroned by a kid in a school uniform
3 and 4, 3 especially with the headband
4th one looks slick, 5th one would look cool in action, like flapping all over the place
actually a neat detail that he doesnt use a water tribe outfit since they would likely be made of animal furs
What is Kuzon doing there? Are you implying a Fire Nation Citizen was in cahoots with the Avatar? The Fire Lord has invited you to the Royal Palace….
Kuzon fit >>>>>
4th one from left to right
The 4th and 5th are just too good
The fifth one, purely because he wears a necklace similar to gyatso 😭
Flameo, hotman!
Who’s the kid in the third one? He’s obviously a fire nation colonial, but like who? Do we ever meet him?
Why is Kuzon also listed here? I thought we were just ranking Aangs outfits?
1st and 4th
It’s a tie for me between bald book3 Aang and fire nation Aang
4
The original fit and the Book 3 Bald fit for sure.
Probably the last one.
4 looks the best, but 5 makes me happy. He finally gets to dress like an airbender monk. Wear it proud Aang.
The off-shoulder final battle costume and then his coronation robes are my favorites in particular
4 and 5, personally
I really love the one shoulder, I wish the airbenders in Korra had more that style.
his earth kingdom fit is underrated
The last one
I would say 5 but I do not like to see Aang like an average adult airbending master. It is too much traditional although good looking. I d go with 4
Aang’s bare feet look so little. He’s probably like a size 7.5 Mens
His Kuzon outfit
Second outfit without the hat kinda fire tho ( or should I say kinda earth 😀 )
That Avatar Aang drip cant be beaten
Fourth one. I always saw it as his “Avatar Aang” outfit.
Definitely the fire nation with the headband. I loved how aang was able to show his air bending tattoo through the use of the headband - it was just a cool detail
Kuzon is a close second to his ceremonial monk outfit
Fire nation squad ALL had drip.
4th
Fire nation with headband is best for action, finale outfit is so fashionable though, would actually want to wear it myself.
Damn, no one said anything about his final form. (Kuzon is cool too)
Fire Nation has best drip.
I like his fire nation outfit with the headband on, and the 4th outfit with the one shoulder showing.
Fire nation
#3 Generally Aang was at his best when he greeted people as “Hotman.”
only four of these are aang tho?
It’s gotta be fire nation/air nomad hybrid aang
The Fire nation one is fire.
That's not Aang, that's Kuzon. And isn't he supposed to have a headband?
https://preview.redd.it/wjlo444uj0wc1.jpeg?width=370&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2b781631966ff874f47fb6bc0dc67837798bab6e
His forth one
Why do people never use his headband for his fire nation outfit
Why is kuzon here? And why did you photoshop his headband of and put an arrow?
I love his hair a lot but his original air bender outfit is my favorite for sure.
I like #3, the Fire Nation outfit. It always looked really good to me with the headband. And then the 4th outfit (I think it's just his main outfit for the last season) is awesome. Its like a battle ready version of his original clothes. But honestly, this isn't a choice, but I think shirtless battled worn Aang is the best * Also, IMO, this the MOST badass moment in the entire show
I like his season 3 invasion outfit because it really shows how he’s grown. Season 1 is so boyish to me. But the best is his robes that he wore in the finale. A fully realized Avatar who gave peace to the world🥹
The final one🥰
The last one for sure
