Anyway to to remove parachutes from Kerbals?

[DiggityD0nk]

Its is not the most important question ever, but I don't like seeing a parachute on the back of my Kerbal while on EVA.

I think no.  

It has been suggested to Squad on the bug-tracker (here) where often players post their workarounds, but it seems that no-one has found a way.

(Well, I suppose you could go into the file Squad/Experience/traits.cfg and change the EVAChuteSkill to level-6 and restart the game, so they never have chutes until you restore traits.cfg, but that would be overkill.)

I think kerbonaut parachutes are good and removing them is not helpful.

You can use the texture replacer mod to hide them.

its a bit stupid that they wear them on places without air. 
On the other hand you can deorbit an kerbal in an chair so having parashutes in orbit of Eve, Kebin and Laythe makes some sense.
