"Recolor" is a colloquial term that applies to a specific group of items. These include items of the same type that have had the same parts recolored the same way several times with different color patterns. Many of these color patterns are loosely grouped with the term "recolor" as well.

Notes

Recolored items are released consistently, so much so that the phenomenon has led to this colloquial use of "recolored" in the Spiral Knights community. Technically most aesthetic items in spiral knights are recolored versions of a kind of item, like "regal bolted vee" and "cool bolted vee" and so on.

Prize boxes for these promotions and events are usually named in relation to the relevant color pattern.

When thinking about what recolors are in general, and what they might be in the future, some things should be considered:

Usually, the below costumes and accessories are "recolored." Sometimes only accessories are recolored. This is the case with polar and ancient.

Some recolor forms (a.k.a shape etc.) have existed quite some time before becoming one of the recolored costumes or accessories - this is the case with the Cobalt Helm and several others. But sometimes new forms are introduced as recolors first. Some accessories are only available in a "recolor" color pattern - this is currently the case with Lovely Whiskers, and was temporarily the case with Lovely Bent Vertical Vents. Many players have wondered, "why not recolor things like the Spiral Demo Helm too?" Time will tell!

The Crescent Helm, Flak Jacket, Round Helm, and Draped Armor are not styled in hunter, because these costumes were introduced during the Surge Prize Box Promotion in September 2012, which was after the Hunter Prize Box Promotion, and the hunter promotion has not been seen since August 2012.

Sometimes "recolored costumes" and "recolored accessories" are recolored in a color pattern that has been well established long before the "recolored items" were released in that pattern. This is the case with shadow.

Items have been styled in a "recolor" color pattern long before the color pattern was advocated for an event or put in a prize box for a promotion. (Before, the color pattern was nameless, uncommon, and/or unique). This is the case with the Frosty Bombhead Mask and several other items.

Once, a color pattern was released that shares the name, but not the shades/textures, of an existing family of equipment. This is the case with items like the Ancient Plate Helm and the ancient color pattern. They don't really match, do they?

What do these things mean? What can we expect? The community often speculates, check out the forums. Again, the term "recolor" is primarily colloquial and only semi-official at best. Content releases do not set things in stone.

Below is a list of the accessories and costumes commonly styled in "recolor" color patterns.
