Got these off eBay at great price :cool:
Very happy with them especially since finding desirable EG's in my size has proven to be almost impossible..

Is there any thrill better than finding a great boot, at a great price....I think not.

Does anyone know what EG suede color will be the closest match to Nightshade calf?

I am very much digging my EG balmorals in black calf with black suede uppers and am looking for something similar in a different color. I’m not looking for a major contrast but the suede uppers make my balmorals really comfortable.

The EG burgundy suede I’ve seen online seems too bright and reddish. Currently I’m thinking black, navy, or lavagne (dark grey) suede, but I wasn’t sure if they had a plum-like suede that would more closely match Nightshade. Berry is an option but also looks too bright. If anything, I’d like to err on the side of the suede being darker than the calf, rather than lighter.
