Seasonal clothing for the Ranger

After watching the Ranger reveal I am wondering if there has been any dev discussion about seasonal clothing?
This would be unique abilty to certain classes like the Ranger class as they are in tune with nature.
In the footage I noticed the ranger has a red leaf motif on his shoulder, perhaps symbolising Autumn. The white cloak would be more useful in winter and does not fit the season shown in the footage.

The seasons reveal earlier this year showed animals changing there skins according to the season. This would be really cool if the ranger could could mimic this seasonal change and his/her clothing changes to reflect the season.

This could be implemented by a craftable/lootable light armour set with the season change ability that can be activated by the ranger.

I imagine this has to be restricted to certain armour sets otherwise AoC artists would go into meltdown if they have to recolour all armour according to season.

This does not have to be exclusive to Rangers but what do you guys think?

    Make it in-game earnable cosmetics and available to anyone and everyone and we're good. No matter how well Rangers are "in tune with nature", if I see snow falling I'd think to myself "oh, I should put on smth white so that I blend in with the bg better".

    I agree that seasonal clothing is only good for merging with the environment. I don't see the point in any other clothes that my enemies may see. It just doesn't make sense, so each season should have a minimum of one look to merge with the environment. Further, you can add or buy new clothes and choose them to your preferences, but the main costume should be seasonal. I can compare it to people; we also want to have the same clothing style when it comes to office dress code or something like this. But sometimes, I like to differ from people and wear something stylish and unique. Click site to see what I like to wear to special events
