Having just spoken with Richard from Obscur... There are, surprisingly, no Swedish stockists. But if you happen to be in London sometime, the Concrete store at 35 Marshall Street has them.

Concrete is a stockist, but I've never seen any obscur there. I believe the f/w season will be carried by more stores, up until now it has been very limited.

Ahh, that's a shame. I was hoping to check out their stuff when I go to Sweden.

how long does a ccp special order usually take, 6, 7, 8 weeks?

the breaks, one option is to try and get in contact with nambla or one of his friends and set up an appointment, might work.

Well I ripped the leather on my backpack within days of getting it, only by trying to un-button it... the leather is seriously weak and wasn't reinforced around the rivet (the rivets are reinforced on the same buttons on the pants). In fact, the leather has been stretched out due from the button sticking on the top button also, so now I don't even button it because it will rip and that spot can't be covered up like the lower button. Has anyone experienced this with their julius bags? What would you guys recommend I do; get it repaired and reinforced, or just let it get trashed(it is lined with cotton so the leather would eventually deteriorate and shred around the cotton bag)? Here are some pics..

get in contact with julius they might give you another one.

My fencing took 7 weeks. I'd approximately expect a 2 month wait for any special order though.

What a weak quality for such a expensive piece.
Hope sth like that isn't going to happen with my cotton jacket.
