Sale on tresbien is usually around middle of january, most swedish shops are horrible when it comes to sale and adding the new collections. It is a really good shop though when it comes to service and shipping.

Thanks!

Ok this could be a kind of dumb question but here goes. I've never understood the forearm zips on Rick's leathers. Do they serve any functional purpose that I'm unaware of? For me, they ruin what would be some otherwise grail worthy leathers. Anyone else have a similar opinion?

But I believe the idea goes back to Rick's idea of utility. He's made several comments in the past about how people who wear his jackets shouldn't need to carry bags. Several of the leathers had the velcro backpack compartment and the inside pockets are rather large (large enough to hold a book or sandwich, I believe he mentioned).
So ideally, you have all of these compartments you can use to carry things, store things without stuffing your pants pockets full of everyday items. Or, depending on what you're carrying, you could eliminate the need for a backpack or bag.
So I respect that vision of items really being used and useful. I don't have any sleeve zippered leathers so I can't comment on how useful they are. Personally, I prefer the clean, simple lines of the thin, long sleeves and wool cuff instead of the zipper on the forearm.Originally posted by mizzarSorry for being kind of a dick to you.

^So it is actually a pocket? That makes more sense. The only Rick leather I had never had the zippered arms and I've never actually seen one in person. I don't dislike them to the extent that it would stop me buying one, but I've always wondered what purpose they serve, because aesthetically I think they'd look better without them.

I have the Rick's jacket with those forearm zippers and I find them semi useful for things like phone and small wallet. I know most people don’t like them but on this jacket I don't mind, its fairly plain so I think it adds a bit of detail.
