The first details of an approved costume test from Marvel's Captain America: The First Avenger have emerged and Mike Sampson (JoBlo), who broke the original story, confirmed that these new images, “aren't just fan mockups – these are the real deal.”
In fact, the Captain will have two different outfits, director Joe Johnston had said earlier. The first is more flashy as the character begins as a troops entertainer with the USO; the second (the one we are seeing here) is more battle-ready and practical and the one worn for most of the film.
Captain America, starts shooting this summer mostly in Europe, takes place during WWII and will follow Cap's escapades on the European battlefronts, including encountering a diabolical scientist Arnim Zola and an evil villain named Red Skull. The movie script is penned by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely.
Captain America: The First Avenger, which stars Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/Cap, Sebastian Stan as sidekick Bucky Barnes, Hayley Atwell as love interest Peggy Carter, Hugo Weaving as Nazi villain Red Skull, and Toby Jones as secondary baddie Arnim Zola, is released on July 22, 2011. [source: AICN]

Why the F*%# did they give him suspenders!!!
Looks pretty cool …. my only real complaint is that the shield is his modern day shield and not the World War 2 one …. maybe thats part of the fancier costume
“Why the F*%# did they give hm suspenders!!!”
To hold his F*%#ing pants up!
More seriously, it’s the double-strap version of a Sam Browne belt, aka “field service belt”.
Really useful thing to have, when you’re loaded down with extra ammo, field dressings, canteen, and all the other crap you might have to carry out in the field.
The SUSPENDERS LOOK SO DORKY! sheesh! Captain Urkel!
who ever decided chris evans should play captain america should be shot
“Why the F*%# did they give him suspenders!!!”
They are not suspenders. What do you think holds his shield on his back?
