I will go for snuff. What about soles I could go with either dainite, single leather or double leather.

What about tomir sole? If not I can go for single leather probably. I don't think that particular boot suits a dainite, but I could be wrong.

4 so far seem to majority for snuff; double leather sole would also compliment.

I'll put my hand in for dark brown if we have enough for that too. Double leather or dainite, or the commando sole, even.

Gentlemen: Can't 100% commit on these yet, but the best configuration for me would be snuff, Rain, Dainite. with speedhooks.

@greasymonkey why do you feel that the boot needs speed hooks if you don't mind my asking? I have 2 pairs of Carmina with them and I find that they shred the crap out of the laces rather quickly.

I only have one pair of boots and I don't wear them often because of the speed hooks. It gets a bit annoying to wrap around the laces everytime you put them on.
