Adventures of Mowgli: Loincloths in animation

Adventures of Mowgli is a Soviet/Russian Soyuzmultfilm series of five shorts made from 1967 to 1971. The shorts were compiled into a classic movie in 1973, which then had an English dub in 1996. Its own langot clad Mowgli grows from toddler to adult. It’s got both dvd and blu ray releases, and one of them, a blu ray compilation with fellow films, was sold on EBay Canada. https://www.cafr.ebay.ca/itm/253387552035

In fact, the five short films are still popular in many parts of Europe, because they’re amongst the first Eastern European animations inspired by picture stories and mangas for both Shōnen and Shōjo demographics, especially Hayao Miyazaki’s People of the Desert and Tetsuya Chiba’s Yuki’s Sun. https://youtu.be/wnPuhO4ps1E?feature=shared
