It's pity it's not 270° flat welt as it would probably look better.

It's only an embossed version of Cordovan, but it has such a cool look to it. The stuff shines on loafers and boots.

Boots on the US site:

Coniston 2 Dark Brown Hatch Grain Cordovan

Long anticipated, Crockett & Jones is proud to launch its latest version of Coniston (2), a high leg derby boot with a straight toe cap made on the 375 last. An icon of the Crockett & Jones men’s boot collection, famously with Dainite rubber soles and storm welt for added water resistance. 143...

should have been priced at $1430! 😜

Those Conistons look awesome. Fortunately, I already own the Coniston in dark brown scotch grain. Otherwise, I would have been forced to order those cordovan Conistons...
And somehow there is a mistake: The Coniston comes on Dainite not on leather sole - according to the C&J website.

There are dark brown cordovan hatch grain Cavendish coming too.

Thsoe are beautiful, but honestly? 1400 dollars is an insane price for these boots.

In the context of $1250 US retail price for regular cordovan Harlechs, the $1450 for the Anniversary Coniston with lasted trees is about what's expected.

I'm gonna say I think Crockett and Jones over prices for cordovan, when you can find Aldens, which are comparable quality, for 400 less.

Honestly, part of the reason I'd buy Crockett and Jones over Aldens is that I think their calf skin is nicer. There isn't really that much difference in cordovan quality from what I've seen.

Brett Viberg would like to have a word… 🤣🤣

I notice that C&J prices have increased recently. Benchgrade are nearly what Handgrade used to cost a few years ago.

Where can you get a new pair Alden shoes in cordovan for $400 or less?
