The company seems to be marching fast towards that objective. Earlier today, Elon Musk shared a photo on his Instagram account giving us a glimpse of SpaceX spacesuit.

First picture of SpaceX spacesuit. More in days to follow. Worth noting that this actually works (not a mockup). Already tested to double vacuum pressure. Was incredibly hard to balance esthetics and function. Easy to do either separately.
