Corellian bloodstripes were a series of red or gold horizontal bars that could be added to a pair of pants running down each leg.[1]
By 10 BBY,[2] Han Solo had a pair of pants with gold Corellian bloodstripes that he wore when during a heist of Coaxium from the planet Kessel.[3] Han continued to wear pants with the bloodstripes including during a ceremony when he was awarded a medal from the Alliance to Restore the Republic.[4]
In 3 ABY,[5] the scoundrel Kay Vess found a pair of blue pants in a container aboard the Trailblazer, an EML-850 light freighter that she stole from Sliro Barsha's Westhill Palace in Canto Bight.[1]
Behind the scenes
Corellian bloodstripes first appeared though unidentified on Han Solo's pants in the 1977 film, Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope.[4] They were first identified in the canon continuity on the "Kessel runner pants" cosmetic that was exclusive to the Ultimate Edition of the 2024 video game, Star Wars Outlaws.[1]
In the Star Wars Legends continuity, bloodstripes were a Corellian military award for conspicuous gallantry with red representing a first class award and gold representing a second class.[6]
