Apr 27, 2022 at 15:06 comment added lessthanideal In DS9 "Past Tense", Dax is wearing 2024-manufactured clothing which looks like a regular (as 1990s imagined it) suit, but her badge stays on it. She'd have had to make a special effort to achieve that (e.g. special glue instead of e.g. keep it in her pocket) if the below "it's the magnetic uniform" answers are right. Also, in some episodes Jake is wearing civilian clothes and sticks a badge on without prior warning. So tenuously, it's more like "a badge sticks to any clothing if you activate that" (since they don't appear to stick to random things), but without any real explanation how.

Aug 19, 2013 at 14:03 comment added bitmask Due to the ambiguity; Could you clarify if you are looking for an in-universe or an out-of-universe answer? (I believe both would be interesting).
