Look man, Han just likes wearing striped pants. They don't need to mean anything.

Given how terrible the old EU was about having to assign IMPORTANT SIGNIFICANCE to every fucking background detail and nameless extra, I'm hoping they never will. Anything to keep that trend from re-infesting itself is a good thing.
They could dedicate an entire movie to explain how he got his bloodstripes though. It could tie in with a video game, comic book series, a novel and even a soundtrack just like Shadows of the Empire.

And then a sequel to explain how he got his yellow bloodstripes. :)

Can I buy Han Solo's pants for $49.99?

If not, then someone as Disney merch is failing.

Around 10 years ago I was DM'ing a Star Wars roleplaying game and one of my players was adamant that "Collerian bloodstripe pants" should be a special item in the game so invented these. :)

Corellian bloodstripes pants.

AC 0
+ 2 to Piloting(freighters)
+ 1 to charm social class(Royalty)
- 1 to charm species(Hutt)
- 2 to resist carbon-freezing.

So now I want those pants :)
Homo sapiens! What an inventive, invincible species! It's only been a few million years since they crawled up out of the mud and learned to walk. Puny, defenseless bipeds. They've survived flood, famine and plague. They've survived cosmic wars and holocausts. And now, here they are, out among the stars, waiting to begin a new life. Ready to outsit eternity. They're indomitable... indomitable. ~ Dr.Who

Used to you could, actually, I think. From Don Post or Rubies.

I suspect Anovos either has or will make them at some point, but they'll probably cost ~300 bucks...

I was going to suggest that white stripes represented...something else.
