This outfit would be designed for camping trips. It would be pulled out of it's package and worn and/or washed as long as needed, then boiled in water. The fabric would be made of a hydrocarbon that breaks down at 100% celsius into something very biodegradable. This eliminates the need to carry back
large amounts of stinky garments.
bonus: Canabals don't have to undress the unlucky intruder
bonus 2: eatable in emergencies.
bonus 3: Boil off the legs for your pants for a shorter and more comfortabel garment. Long-sleeved shirts can also become short-sleeved.
Bonus 4: this material could also be used to make a tent for a very light return trip.

Hmmm. What material did you have in mind? Most edible
things that would break down at 100°C will do so more slowly
at armpit-temperature. Also, if you want it to be edible,
hydrocarbons aren't a good choice - carbohydrates, maybe. |

Back in WW2 Canadian military winter jackets came equipped with edible buttons that would boil down for soup as a survival tool. |
