Ok, gonna try a different tack this time w/ poal, as initial attempt to solicit opinion died a swift and silent death. Basically I'm looking to have a pair of Vass made up for casual pairing w/ denim, non-office pants, etc, and need to decide fairly soon as Vassmeister LC is getting set to put an order in.
A few illustrations to suggest what I have in mind (photos courtesy of William, aportnoy, edmorel):
1) Chukka, P2 last, cognac scotchgrain, double sole, goyser stitching fore of heel.
2) Cognac calf single strap monk, F last rather than U, with added medallion:
3) Same as above, but in cognac scotchgrain...
Here is a notion of what this might look like (cognac scotchgrain on F last w/ medallion), albeit in a different format (center, Theresianer high boot):

4) Medium brown suede monkstrap, F last.
5) Same as above w/ medallion.
6) Dark brown suede monkstrap, F last.
7) Same as above, w/ medallion.
8 Medium brown suede chukka, F last.
9) Dark brown suede chukka, F last (rather than U as pictured, which does not fit me well):
10) Alternate suggestion (obviously, I'd prefer chukka or monk).
Unless otherwise specified , I am assuming the somewhat voguish HAF sole arrangement (the one pair of Vass I have has it, and it suits me fine, though admittedly it can look somewhat "clublike" in some photos).
