Hi Jim,

Yes it is Green Suede. G&G are offering more colours to their collection including suedes and some grain leathers. I will be updating the MTO page next week with more colours.

I would think it is considered a shoe to wear with odd jacket and trousers or casual trousers rather than with a suit. I agree with the implicit thought in your question that the stiching making up the toe cap looks casual. ( I am assuming you are asking about the Uppingham rather that the shoe in Racing Green?)
