Sorry, guys.  When naming the topic I thought, "How would nemo name this" and was even half tempt to post a random list.

So here is my thought(only slightly more coherant than the list).  The first few seasteaders will truly be pioneers and their lifestyle will reflect this.  So I thought I'd ask if anyone had given any thought to durable materials to make clothing(that likely won't see too many wash cycles) that is sturdy, cormfortable, and generally suited to life on early seasteads.  Denim is a given, I'd imagine.  Hemp too, probably.  It was used in excess on sailboats for centuries given its sturdy nature.  Any thoughts?

Also hair for early steaders will be an issue.  Hair shaven, close-cropped, or dreadlocked would likely be best.

Hope I'm not jumping the gun.  For me its more an exercise in theory to get everyone thinking about not just engineering aspects but day to day life aspects that some of us will be dealing with.
