Thanks, Teger.

I'll email Guy now to ask about the availability of walnut shell. In the meantime, anyone who's interested in going on a group order, let me know. I imagine we're looking at a ~$1,000 price tag.
Interested for sure, but I wouldn't get your hopes up: lighter shells like that are pretty rare right now.

Have they started making distressed boots or is that just a well-worn version of what you'd like?

Looking back in the thread, JohnnyRich7's shell pair are just too much handle. Gotta get that one made. The captoe is sick.

Navy is darker than I thought - probably great with denim as almost black. I'm not buying but they sure are nice to look at.

It is all about the lighting.
I had navy shell Riders that I ended up getting rid of, that like other shell changed significantly in different lighting.
The work in progress pics on the IG account showed this specific pair lighter.
I guess I will see how these come out in person in March...

And as we all know, the price point is all about the demand.... (keep in mind that this thread has been fairly alive with action related to this offering)
