I mean, it’s a space suit. It’s theoretically possible to have space suits that look a lot cooler (or at least different) from this, but most of them would require huge breakthroughs in technology that we don’t have. So instead we just do a refinement on the same basic approach that we already know works. If we had exotic materials or significantly better energy storage we might be able to replace traditional space suits with space marine power armor or some sort of form fitting wetsuit-looking thing, but we ain’t there yet.
