That will be in 6 different colours. Whatever chocolate museum calf means - dark brown will be in the selection, just like black.

‘Museum Calf’ (as JLP calls it) is an aniline calf with a hand-applied antique finish, produced by the Italian tannery Ilcea.

http://www.ilceaspa.com/

The tannery itself calls the leather Radica.

I presume, what SpooPoker is asking: will the final shoes be as flat in colouring as the samples,
or will they be antiqued, either working with ‘antiqued’ hides or using ‘crust’, which will be dyed on the finished shoe?

This is exactly what I meant. Thanks Bengal.

The wings and PTB have room to spare but the loafers are dead on for 10D. They are snug for me and a hair more length would be ideal, but they work. When I wear them sockless they are perfect. Thin socks, good. Thicker socks, a little tight at the tips.

But just gorgeous shoes. Definitely worth it if the fit is in the ballpark.

I bought the lighter color and have to return because they're too small.
