Wet-weather gear stormtrooper


Wet-weather gear stormtroopers were armed with E-11 medium blaster rifles, and some were equipped or customized their armor with bandoliers. They wore waterproof capes, known as slicks which were necessary for wading through the swamplands of Mimban during the Mimban Campaign waged by the Galactic Empire roughly ten years before the Battle of Yavin.

Behind the scenes


Wet-weather gear stormtroopers first appeared in the 2018 Star Wars Anthology film Solo: A Star Wars Story. The long rubberized coats that the stormtroopers wore were actually the same coats previously worn by the Imperial officers on Jedha City from the 2016 Anthology film Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
