Yeah, if you look closely it actually looks like he has the two other ANH style belt greeblies on his belt as well! Or at least something similar ...
The original part was actually a gas cylinder from a microflame torch.... the same torch used my the Jawas to attach the restraining bolt to R2, and by Luke to repair 3PO's arm.

From the partsofsw.com and I quote : 'One item on Han's gunbelt is a green CO2 bulb for a Sparklets soda syphon.' However under 'Microwelder' it's said : 'The blue Micronox cylinder was used on Han Solo's belt in A New Hope.' with a link to Han Solo costume claiming the green CO2 on the gunbelt :wacko ... And yes those other white greeblies are quite similar to the ones seen in ANH

I don't think he "had" to wear stripes in ANH, ESB, or ROTJ... but he chose to. That was sort of his thing.

There is something besides a droid call on his belt, I think. Also someone else pointed out his pistol leg tie down is different.
Matchless of London is producing a TFA collection, including Han Solo's leather jacket. Around $2500!

To me, the cylindrical objects in the left Breast pockets look a lot like batteries for e-cigarettes!
I have some on order in black.

Man that's way more expensive than mine and it's not even screen accurate! Is it licensed at least? It doesn't say or at least I didn't see it
I am sure it is licensed. If you go to the Matchless London website, you will see TFA images splashed all over the home page. They are doing a big collection. Used to be able to browse it, but I couldn't last night. That's why I grabbed the shot from another site.
Really interested in in your version. Put me on your list!

I figured the stripes were like the old Calvary stripes from the civil and Indian wars, I remember a quote from some movie "he wears those pants like he earned them" after the wars many wore parts of the uniforms till they wore out. I still have my jacket from when I was in the service but I can't fit it, but you move on, so while we like the stripes, it is sad to not see them

Hey guys, this is why you make a prototype
Not happy with this jacket. Working on a new one. One thing; I used C02 canisters and they don't look right.
However, If this jacket is done right, you will want to wear it without the 3 random greeblies.
I suggest attaching them with velcro. A velcro patch on a leather bomber jacket "fits"

In looking at the greeblies for Hans Solo's jacket, closely, the closet match I have come up with are batteries for e-cigarettes.
What at do you think?
I ordered 3 online (from Singapore!) for $7.00, including shipping. Don't get them from your local vaping store: $20 each!
