Hmmm...I personally thought Aragorn's costums were perfect. I didn't have a set vision for his clothes and gear when reading the books, but the movie certainly didn't clash with my non-image.

All right, to explain that frighteningly obtuse statement, sometimes in books though I don't have a set picture in my own mind, I still have some thoughts about what they don't look like. A sort of "I'm not really sure what he looks like but it isn't that" attitude. But Aragorn's costume wasn't like that, for me. Somehow the whole "Ranger" thing in the book did remind me of a wandering western hero. But that's just me...

I also liked what he wore at the Council, and the picture of his new get-up in RotK looks quite nice.
