The director of both Logan and The Wolverine, James Mangold, said in the run-up to Logan that part of the reason we never saw Logan in any kind of costume was because the director never saw this character as the type who would put on a special outfit just for fighting people.
The closest the yellow suit ever came to the screen was a sequence that was shot, but never used, at the end of The Wolverine.
He didn’t even like the black outfits he had to wear when fighting alongside the X-Men.
The costume was given as a gift, though Logan sort of turned up his nose at it, so it’s unlikely he was ever expecting to wear it.
