In the weightlessness of space, legs don't really have much use on a space walk-- seeing as there isn't all that much actually walking to be done.  In fact, legs can be a positive hazard, what with catching on wires and all, so why not just cut the legs off astronauts and be done with it?  Too severe?  Okay, how about saving on tailoring costs and making spacesuits without legs?  Just encase the lower limbs in a sort of tube-thing.  It's stylish, and it's practical.

Unless you get a knee cramp, of course.

A 1930's example.  Not that new an idea, it seems
