Why does Dick Grayson’s Robin costume from the Batman 90′s animated series look like Tim Drake’s old Robin coustume ?

The producers purposely modeled the look after Tim Drake’s costume, they felt the original look was outdated and wouldn’t fit w/ the more dark psychological tone of the of the series.
they decided the green shorts were unattractive and a bit dated. Long pants and black capes were added to update and modernize the uniform, as well as adding the quarterstaff in most incarnations.Since I was first nervously introduced to Burt Ward wearing shorts and support hose in Adam West’s batman, I view it as an excellent choice
