Why do stormtroopers' knees each have different design? The rest of the armor is symmetrical, but the left and right knee are their own thing. Why?

Cooper Sanders
The left knee has a flat surface so they're stable when kneeling down to shoot.
James Green
A lot of soldiers wear their kneepads asymmetrically because they need one pad for kneeling but find the other one uncomfortable.
Wyatt Butler
Interesting
Zachary Brooks
So fuck the dudes who prefer to lean on their right? Why don't both knees have such surfaces then? What's with the right one?
Isaiah Johnson
Stormtrooper budget was slashed for the death star
Wyatt Garcia
flat pad works for kneeling and you use the ribbed pad to stabilize or brace your arm
Jaxon Edwards
Dylan Sanchez
Perhaps everyone in the picture is right handed. Maybe there's some left handed leg plates out there.
Eli Roberts
They probably didn’t think of that but I’d imagine the plates are interchangeable.
Anthony Morgan
They started off as clones.
Brody Wright
I'm right handed and I lean on my right
Jaxson Roberts
Because it's a kids movie and it's likely they were short on parts.
Parker Hughes
Based autistic guidebooks, those were fun reading when I was a kid.
Wouldn't the ribbed one be more uncomfortable against the elbow?
Joseph Allen
Bumping this because it deserves better than being archived in favor of some stale Ellie page thread.
Connor Lopez
What are the floppy rectangles hanging off their belt?
Noah Taylor
Their knee grows
Lincoln Mitchell
Armor.
Nathan Roberts
Dude trust me
Leo Watson
Ammo packs.
Elijah Butler
its resting on the leg plates so no, the ribbing would prevent slippage if anything.
Oliver Walker
They did, shit.
Nicholas Ramirez
The point is why didnt the clone armor have this feature rather than the imperial, which troops arnt 100% clones.
Grayson Adams
Left handed people get fucked over just like real life. Its that simple.
Joseph Evans
Hudson Foster
Deepest lore
Owen Ramirez
endowed crotch armor dabs on rebel soldiers.
Charles Kelly
Based Chadtroopers.
Charles Fisher
Ryder Lopez
they are all clones of right handed man
Nicholas Wright
Why are they all different heights then?
Oliver Martinez
nu wars would never have anything near this much attention to detail.
Ethan Carter
it's to hide the fact that some of the stormtroopers are midgets on stilts
Ryan Reed
shut the fuck up dude i have no fucking answer to that big fucking deal so you made me look stupid big fucking woop big deal
Samuel Sanchez

Christian Evans
So they know which way round to wear their pants
