"Full pressure suits? At 10% Earth atmosphere? The ones Collier's showed sure didn't look like Apollo Moon suits... and neither do the ones the Mars Society folks dance around in today... add about 75 kg in lead to them, and then dance..."

The MS suits were designed with frugality in mind. They did pretty good
for constructing them out of among other things, garbage can lids and
canvas.
