Refurbished and resoled shell beefrolls are on their way back to me. Might have them by the end of the week.

Sorry I'm late to the game here. Cool shoes! I agree with the others about preferring the top model.
I was just putting together an olive cxl Ranger Moc myself, inspired by these photos from someone's ebay ad: olive cxl Ranger Mocs
The color on these ebay shoes is pretty dark, and they have the black RLH sole. The Rancourt design-your-own tool makes the olive cxl look fairly green. I remember the discussion here a month or two ago about the variation in dark olive cxl (I think @tifosi had some olive loafers that were more on the green end, for example). I'm wondering how the honey RLH sole would look (compared to black RLH) if the leather is fairly dark. What do you guys think?
Super helpful x2! Thanks for the pictures. That helps a lot.If this helps, here's a picture of my dark olive CXL Clymers that I just received from Rancourt last week in more natural light. At first I thought they might have made a mistake and given me brown CXL, but mine have a greenish tint, whereas most of the brown CXL I see has a reddish tint. But I have to emphasize - mine are fairly dark. The shoes next to them are natty CXL, for reference. Also, I have this pair of Quoddy chukkas I bought from Leffot for reference (image stolen from Leffot website). The crepe sole is a bright yellow vs. the honey sole you are contemplating, but it should give you a better idea of the contrast between a darker brown and brighter sole.
Definitely worth the wait.
Next go around I will nee to order my right shoe half a size smaller than the left!
Got an email day before yesterday that Rancourt has shipped these to Massdrop, who should be shipping to the end-users straight away once they receive and process them. As an aside, they did get to the $250 price. Looking forward. Bought my first Rancourt's (natural shell venetian) during BB's last corporate sale and love them. This will be my first foray into the world of CXL.
