Just basing from the current roster in the JLA movie:
Superman for wearing his baby blanket as a cape, which adds absolutely zero value to his costume?
Wonder Woman for wearing armor that leaves multiple parts of her body unprotected?
Batman for wearing heavy armor that hinders his movements despite the fact that he's supposed to be a ninja?
Flash, for being the fastest man alive and yet wears heavy armor that will slow him down despite the fact that his speed is a way more effective method to avoid injury?
Aquaman, for wearing heavy armor that will weigh him down when he's swimming in water and does not look even remotely aquadynamic?
And on the flip side: Which JLA member's costume actually makes the most sense?
Superman for wearing skintight under armor that looks flexible enough to allow him full range of motion?
Wonder Woman for wearing only minimal armor in key places to make sure her movements are not hampered?
Batman for wearing bullet proof armor because he does not have any other powers to protect himself?
Flash for wearing armor as added protection for the inevitable high speed crash that probably occurs every now and then?
Aquaman for wearing armor because.... well because he's a damned warrior and warriors do wear armor.

Batman's the only one who's just a human so I think he gets a pass. The one redesign I really dislike is for the Flash. Why make it so bulky and cumbersome?

isn't this on the dc board? Yes, but no one was replying and I'm impatient. The MCU board here is a lot busier (which is weird because in the old IMDB it was the DC movies that had a lot of activity in the boards). I'll be making an Avengers equivalent of this soon.

I think Aquaman should be at the top of your list.
In order to avoid a flame war with my DC-loving brethren, I will revise the word "stupidest" to read as confounding.
It just doesn't make sense to wear armor under water - even light armor. From the looks of the JL trailer, the underwater scenes featuring Aquaman, Mera and other Atlanteans rely on wire work with CG water effects added in post. The effect look decent at a glance until you start to consider how impractical it would be to wear ornate armor, delicate head pieces and heavy weapons in the deep.
I'm not trying to throw shade on JL or Wan for that matter but, it bothers the hell out of me.

Definitely Captain America; even with the updates his costume in the MCU it still looks dated AF. Oh, wait: he's not even in Justice League, where the big boys play? ... Oh.
Then I dunno.
