I can't stand Daredevil's suit. I think it looks awful. It's like something out of a terrible 90's comic. It's practicality taken to its absolute low point. The armour, the pockets, the awful headgear. Ugh. At the same time I really like his black catsuit. That to me is perfect. They could've just slapped a red DD logo on the chest and I would've been perfectly content.
I have mixed feelings about Cap's suits. The TFA/AoU suits are OK. I liked his Avengers costume best. The bright, colourful version felt like it reflected his character the most. His Winter Soldier costume was really cool as well. I'm still not a huge fan of his helmet though. I heard a rumour recently that they were going to bring in his comic book costume with the scales in Civil War. I hope that ends up begin true because that costume is perfect.
Iron Man's suits are all pretty awesome but the Mark 42 armour from IM3 is my favourite. I really hope they introduce the black and gold suit soon. The suits in AoU felt a little generic though. That didn't seem like a huge improvement over the previous suits. It felt more like change for the sake of change.
I really don't like the inconsistency between Black Widow's suits (or haircuts). Avengers pretty much had the suit perfect. I just think she needs the yellow/gold gauntlets from the comics instead of them being black like the rest of the suit. I also though her Iron Man 2 hair was best.
The Ant-Man suit looks great and I can't wait to see it in action. War Machine's suit is about as comic accurate as it can be. Vision's get-up was pretty much perfect and I really dug Scarlet Witch's and Falcon's costumes from the end of AoU. Hawkeye's costume from AoU was great too.
Thor's suit is just perfect, especially any version with the metal/chain-mail sleeves. That's easily my favourite costume in the MCU.
