A commando sole could be added to very nice effect.
I did the same thing and had trouble tracking down their Ludlow shoes.

Those chukkas and brogue oxfords don't look anything like Grant Stone. This, however, does:

It would seem some of their discontinued styles have been made by the same factory in the past but perhaps their current offerings are not.
Also note that Grant Stone launched in 2016 according to their website. So it makes sense that J Crew stopped carrying those shoes under their house brand around that time and instead adopted Grant Stone.
Never said they were the same as Grant Stone, just the same factory. Grant Stone obviously does their own thing. The Ludlow factory hasn't changed, and has continued to stock and introduce various models well after 2016. In addition, Grant Stone has only been on J. Crew's site for about a year.
