I recall that on several of the early Gemini program space walks where they tried performing some basic tasks, overheating was a huge issue - with visors fogging over and vision being impaired to the point where it was quite dangerous.
Although an impressive Space X effort, the jury is still out on if the spacesuits are up to the task of serious space activities.
