    What's sad is the winter jackets appear to be fully compatible with color customization, they've just locked it off to drive sales of the winter stuff.

    Put a color-customizable jacket set in the Lobi store and I'd probably buy it.

    Sure. Quick curiosity question: were you able to discover this yourself, or did you hear it from me?

    I noticed that when I swapped to a winter jacket from another costume piece, the jacket would very briefly have the colors selected for the previous piece before reverting to its designated colors.

    Pretty obvious.

    I support this suggesstion.
    As they are now, both green and red jackets have very limited use. Their color shades are too vibrant.
    Hardest part is to match them with anything in KDF color palette.
    Actually, I'm skipping them entirely, buying older winter jackets instead.

    Agreeing with that.. the red/green are too bright. If I get any winter costume, it will be the black long jacket & that is it. Not really finding appeal in any other colour than that. It'd be bette rif they let people to pick their colours instead, as it is easy to implement...

    I'd like for the coats to get a full palette and receive a commodity cost increase, personally... I'm not a fan of how each is sold separately when it's clear they could easily be sold as just one. It's very limiting, and it takes up a lot more space in the tailor.

    I understand that the coats need to have a high commodity cost to drive people to participate in the winter event. I'm okay with that! I fully accept that a coat might need to cost a lot more commodities to have a full palette, but I think it would be worth the effort to get the additional customization.

    People love to make things certain colors to match with other outfit pieces. As of now, I've heard a lot of people say that it's difficult to match the red and green coats to anything else.

    Yeah, I can definitely get behind this. The white jacket looks more like "light grey" to me and I'd appreciate the ability to darken the red and green jackets quite a bit, less so for the brown.

    The red and green are NOT too bright. All other clothes' palettes are just too dark. You pretty much have to go with white pants with them, because you can't match that shade of red/green and the available shades will look totally lame next to the bright coat.

    Although, the miner pants do have that stripe that can be of bright color. White miner pants with red stripe fits perfectly with the red coat. Unless of course you wanted red pants with a white stripe, 'cause then you'll be stuck with the dull reds again.

    More color freedom, please.

    Yes please, and the option to match other parts of the uniform (ex. Pants) to the jackets would be nice.
