I thought it was so we could have access to that not-racially-locked Ala Mhigan gear.

Take a look at the Ala Mhigan gear, see if there are any clues to this mind set.

What do we see here? Light hide armor made with plenty of breathing room for a desert climate, made to showcase a powerful build. I do not feel this is a coincidence.
IF the gear is suited to the climate, then all the races that live there are going to want to wear it. At very least there's a Hellsguard population that are going to have similar taste in gear.

I don't see any reason to assume they "roughly sew their clothing together" though - here or elsewhere. They wear the same types of neatly-made clothing the other races do, and have the same starter gear as Midlanders!
