1) Oundle

Burnt Pine Antique Calf
Single leather sole
Light Antique Edge trim
Complementary antiqued buckle
Forest Green leather liner

2) Shannon with no cap toe and brogued trim along the upper. Incorporation of toe medallion instead of captoe. It should be a tweaked Shannon model, similar to the following:

82 last
Burgundy Antique Calf lower
Mink Suede upper (is there a different suede that might work better?)
HAF soles
Antiqued eyelets and speedhooks
Light Antique Edge trim
Burgundy Antique Leather Pull Tabs
Burgundy leather liner

Thanks everyone for all the enabling. Excited when these finally arrive in the summer.

I think with the brogue between the upper and shaft it would make it technically a Shannon II style? I have speed hooks (SH) on my and although I usually do not like boots with SH because they get caught with my pants' hem stitching, this does not happen too much with my Shannons. I think it may be due to the larger SH used by EG. The antiqued edge trim would make a nice contrast.

Where are you ordering from if you don't mind me asking?

I think I may now be swayed to go the no speedhooks route...
