i feel like obi-wan was constantly giving cody heart attacks because as the war went on and got more and more dangerous, obi-wan kept deciding “oh, i kinda feel like wearing less aRMOR TODAY” 

like honestly, look at this:

early in the clone wars he had chest armor that looks like it probably covers his heart from both the front and the back and also has plating all the way up his arms as well as on his shins. it’s not perfect, but it’s definitely something, especially considering how the majority of the time, the enemy used blasters

after the time skip, apparently obi decided all that plastoid was cramping his style so he got rid of basically all of it except for his forearms. i would love to see his clones’ reaction to finding out their reckless general had now made himself even more of a target.

by ROTS obi-wan decided to basically fuck armor entirely, opting for fabric and leather alone, content in the assumption that the power of the force and pure concentrated sass will save him. he doesn’t even have gloves anymore lol. cody has long given up hope.

and it only gets funnier when you go back even earlier in the war, because he used to wear FULL ARMOR

boy even wore a helmet

no other Jedi did this, Obi-Wan just went full trooper and wore their armor, rode their speeders, wielded their weapons, “Jedi propriety” be damned (and other Jedi did comment on this). Qui-Gon would be so proud. 

and then he just starts….stripping as the war goes on

What with his track record with robes, it was only a matter of time before he misplaced all his armor too.

Yeah we see him with a helmet in exactly one scene before he throws it off dramatically. And once he runs out of armor, he throws his robe off dramatically before damn near every fight. The man is just addicted to stripping before combat and at some point the requisitions officer concluded that hey armor is expensive, we’re not giving him any more unless he stops throwing it away.
