In this image taken from the Databank page for Tuanul we can see a stormtrooper with a cape in the background.



Tuanul, caped stormtrooper



Do we know what type of stormtrooper this is?




It would not appear to be a snowtrooper as their long coats are generally form fitting and quite tight.



Snowtroopers



The Star Wars wikia also identifies a caped stormtrooper type as "Wet-weather gear stormtrooper" but these are from the Imperial era and first showed up in Solo: A Star Wars Story.

    On a side note the wet-weather gear stormtrooper at the front of the image has his wrong knee on the floor like a proper muppet.

This (00:06:22) appears to be the same scene viewed from a slightly different angle, possibly a second take(?). In it we see a First Order stormtrooper throwing a villager to the ground in front of him. The villager is wearing a voluminous grey/blue jacket (or possibly a blue dress) that billows slightly.



Since we don't see any other cape-wearing stormtroopers exiting the shuttles, my instinct is that this isn't a cape but just something that was in front of the trooper at the moment the picture was taken.

That's not a cape on the stormtrooper, that's someone closer to the camera.



Note that the "cape" is not as out of focus as the trooper, indicating a different distance from the camera. And if you look, there's a distinct difference in colour: the light blue terminates abruptly against the white of the armour. Further, there are two projections out at either side.



What you are looking at is someone wearing a light blue cloak over a grayish-brown top who is kneeling and slighly bent over. They have their arms raised and bent, just as the other prisoners in the scene do, but because they're bent over their forearms are more parallel to the ground (and thus not as obvious from that angle).
