Please stop making gear look different on male and female characters, especially in a case like this where the gear already has a super feminine design and all the other pieces look the same regardless of gender, all it results in is an inferior and generic looking piece when it deviates so drastically from the original design.


If you really feel the need to offer a separate 'male' option, that's fine, options are good! But either make it two separate pieces the player can choose between (Like some of the recent shop gear!), or give us '/visor'-like toggles like for every gear slot! It's really disappointing to see a new set of gear with an interesting design and then it changes into generic trash as soon as I try it on, and as much as the devs have been doing great about unlocking OLDER gender-locked items recently, there's still at least one item like this EVERY SINGLE PATCH.
This. This especially. Men who want the more masculine look are not buying the tycoon pieces. Hell, they're unlikely to buy the Liz pieces and Bartz was a dude!

Yoshitaka Amano's style lends itself to pretty boys and pretty girls. His style is very androgynous. I mean we can all look at Dawntrail's cover art by him and agree that Meteor is not immediately identifiable as a man.

There was no reason to have given us these ugly pants for men when there is just... no reason for them to have done so?
