If I remember correctly, this is one of four or five different Dimitri Gomez designs, made to celebrate Crockett & Jones' 125th anniversary in 2004.

Not sure about that. But they were produced for sale as limited editions in C&J's Paris shop to celebrate that anniversary. Three different models, including the boot as well as a U-throat oxford with lizard and some other shoe I forget. They came with special trees.

Dimitri is pretty conservative in his designs.

My guess is that this is the "Twilight" colour from their new collection.
Can't say I like it.
