^^^That color "Mole" is a very nice lighter color but just dark enough to contrast nicely with khakis and hide dirt and scuffs.

I'm out of all Vass. Current boot selections are Alden, Mantellassi, and I have two being MTO from a to be named later english maker. I'm eschewing the more elongated lasts and going with a more rounder toe now. I hope to have some St. Crispins in my future.

And to keep this on track, I am getting a pair of these in suede

C&J suede Belgraves are nice. I feel like that color goes with everything.

Is the left pair actually the colour of orange sherbet or is it just the picture?

More ginger/rust than orange sherbert.

I really enjoy it. Kind of reminds me of G&G's fox suede. And the Dover...

I just got one as my first EG, and I think I have caught the NST bug because of it!
