- "Because of the Jedi's dangerous position on the front lines, traditional robes weren't always enough to protect members of the Order from the constant barrage of attacks unleashed by the Separatists' droids. To meet this threat, many Jedi incorporated armor—usually modified from standard-issue clone trooper gear—into their ceremonial garb."
- ―Jedi Master Luke Skywalker
Jedi Commander armor was the name given to modified clone trooper armor adopted by Jedi Generals and Jedi Commanders of the Grand Army of the Republic[1] after the passing of the Jedi Military Integration Act[4] during the Clone Wars. It consisted of the most important pieces of armor plates to avoid hampering the Jedi's lightsaber forms and movement, and was a reminder of the new common reality the Jedi Order faced during the conflict between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems.[1]
Later a lightweight variant at 4,000 credits of the Jedi Commander armor known as the Jedi Reconnaissance Armor was created during the Clone Wars.[5]
