Prior studies predominantly employed relatively shallow networks to extract subtle gait features, achieving impressive successes in constrained settings. Nevertheless, experiments revealed that existing methods mostly produce unsatisfactory results when applied to newly released real-world gait datasets. This paper presents a unified perspective to explore how to construct deep models for state-of-the-art outdoor gait recognition, including the classical CNN-based and emerging Transformer-based architectures. Specifically, we challenge the stereotype of shallow gait models and demonstrate the superiority of explicit temporal modeling and deep transformer structure for discriminative gait representation learning. Consequently, the proposed CNN-based DeepGaitV2 series and Transformer-based SwinGait series exhibit significant performance improvements on Gait3D and GREW. As for the constrained gait datasets, the DeepGaitV2 series also reaches a new state-of-the-art in most cases, convincingly showing its practicality and generality.
