Hahaha, now I can totally imagine how they get their new clothes at some age and have to wear them until they are fully grown and the clothes are way too short and tattered by then.

The exact quote from the lorebook (p83): "It is not uncommon for Wildwood children to look up to their Hyuran friends in their early teens, only to rapidly outstrip them around the age of twenty." (it's in the section specifically about Wildwoods which I assume is why they've written that instead of 'Elezen', but it probably applies to other clans as well.)
Ah, that's interesting to know (unfortunately I don't have the lorebook... it's way too expensive here and you can't buy it anywhere anyway). So they actually grow extremely fast in like 4 years or so? So when they are about 17-18 they probably have to begin buying new clothes every few weeks for the next years.

Somehow the list you made doesn't work. I never shared lists from there until now too, but the ones I made usually work for me if I save them. Weird. But I would have thought that when an Elezen reaches about height 0 (which is over 190 cm) they would be considered about fully grown anyway or at least almost fully grown, because as children they are much, much smaller. So while you can probably play a Miqo'te or Hyur that is suppossed to be like 15-16 years old, you can't play an Elezen who is not an adult yet.

I had a look around the different tribes last night (and also grabbed the chance to *finally* do the Dataqi Chronicles FATE chain). There's a lot of Thavnairian gear pieces and the Lv68 crafted gearsets, and even the ramie ponchos. Plus the Shisui gear that the Buduga tribe wear, which at least does come from an Au Ra palace, come to think of it...
Yes, but only one single gearset that was made specifically for them, if you don't count the starter gear that no one wears.

I don't mind having multiple tribes in the "Nomad" gearsets since that's based on Mongolian cultural dress in the first place. Different colours seem like a 'game-design-friendly' version of each tribe having its own variation on the design.
I thought that it doesn't look enough like their cultural clothing. Similar in some ways, but still somehow distinctively different. I would have liked more variations that look more like a deel. While my characters' tribe left the Steppe some hundred(?) years ago, they probably would still want to dress traditionally for festivals. And there is only the nomad gearset for that. I wanted to make traditional festive outfits for them, but there's not much to choose from.

On the other hand what does bug me is that the Mol tribe wear red, but Cirina has pink instead.
Exactly! And Magnai doesn't wear yellow like every other Oronir. I think it's to make them stand out so that the player knows that they are important characters. But then Sadu wears the Dotharli clothing like others of her tribe.
