A pricier but potentially also worthwhile addition would be both heating and cooling vests from Venture Heat[9] and DSKool[10] respectively. One uses lithium batteries in the pockets to power resistive heating pads sewn into the vest itself while the other is veined with coolant carrying tubes and passes that coolant through a hip or back mounted refridgeration unit, also battery powered. This would decrease discomfort and fatigue on very hot or cold days and mirror both the environmental control systems inside of actual space suits and the thermally controlled suits worn by deep saturation divers. There also exist full sets of heated clothing which run on a 12 volt power source, so they could source electricity directly from the simsuit battery for increased accuracy and at a lower price (as these outfits are designed for motorcyclists, they do not cme with a battery but rather plug into the 12v socket on their bike).
