Does anyone have the slate suede Coniston, slate suede Chelsea 11 scotch grain Chelsea 11? Looking to make another C&J purchase and very undecided. Have Coniston in tan, dark brown and rough-out, and have the Chelsea 5 in dark brown and black. Thanks!

Was browsing some used Crockett & Jones boots and came across this model - it's the chelsea 5, but I don't recognize the color / version. Anyone recognize it?

Looks like roughout (waxed) suede.

That's what I thought too, but it looks lighter than the dark brown C&J currently offers. Anyone know if they used to make it in a lighter brown?

I think roughout will get lighter with time unless one retreats it with more wax.
