Saw the ox blood PAs at my local AE store. Looks just a little bit lighter than merlot. Not a dramatic differnce.

hmmm...little annoyed that it was that close to rollout and I could not MTO the oxblood during the sale for the bleeker. A lighter than Merlot is what I am looking for too.

Here is an AE short wing blucher - the Hinsdale. Complete with AE yellow laces (matches the shirt I am wearing). Maybe this will push AE to introduce another short wing blucher.

Hinsdale is a great model. Thanks for posting.

Agree. AE needs a shortwing!

Those are nice and makes me want the damn Chukka in shell more! Is that natural welt and dressing? or light brown?

It's natural. I had asked recrafting for chili, but oh well. Am pleased with them nonetheless. It makes them quite casual

Very cool, thanks for sharing. I'm not allowing myself to partake, but I'm really curious what color Natural Brown shell is. Similar to Walnut shell, or even lighter?!

I'm waiting for some prototypes from production, but an image with descriptions of Natural and Navy can be found at:
