I don’t like that logic. I almost always wear clothes, and it must be a part of my culture, because it’s illegal for me not to do so in public. I don’t keep my clothes for life, primarily because they get worn out. Likewise, I don’t think Mudokons are worried about throwing the odd loincloth away when it’s reduced to tatters. It’s not as if they’re made from anything non‐renewable or non‐biodegradable.
I see your point. Hmmm...maybe, depending on how long they last, the shaman's might pass a pair down through generations in some way? I never really focused on the loincloth, but if it's not grey from aging, it'll be made from a slightly different or rarer material, and so used as a status point along with the mask of a shaman.
