The changing looks of Final Fantasy's Cid: fashion experts weigh in

Earlier this week, a reader posed a request to senior editor Phil Kollar: a discussion of the looks of Final Fantasy's recurring character Cid. We loved the idea.

But though we certainly have the know-how to talk about one of the most iconic franchises in gaming, we're a little less confident in our fashion skills. The good news is that Polygon shares an office with some of the smartest, most fashionable friends you could ask for over at Racked.

Executive editor Izzy Grinspan, features editor Julia Rubin, engagement editor Kenzie Bryant and market editor Nicola Fumo were up to the task. We dumped them straight into the world of Final Fantasy fashion with no context. Below are their thoughts — pure, insightful and pretty hilarious — on every Cid featured in the main Final Fantasy series.
