Are they J Crew, or Could they be Brunello?

Just playing Devils advocate here, but Westward Drift made an observation on The Great Ebay Thread about a pair of BC chukka boots that he saw, and commented how the soles looked remarkably like the ones on the JCrew boots from the Spectre Morocco outfit.

That got me wondering, did BC make other desert boots, and it seems they have for quite a while. I was searching for a 2015 BC footwear catalogue of some sort, which i couldn't find, but I found these, which have been around for a few years it seems.

Now i know these couldn't be farther away from SA colouring, and the soles are a completely different composition, but what if BC made a pair for DC for SP that were the shape of the Kude, soles from the ebay chukkas and in a lighter colour? Was this whole outfit a BC one? (bar the shirt)

We know that some stuff is made exclusively for the films, we also know that some companies have produced one offs for DC (C&J), so how certain are we that the SU boots are JCrew?

Just saying 8-)

    I may be wrong but I thought I read that Jany had confirmed that the boots were J Crew?

    Was about to comment the same—I’m pretty sure their use in SP been confirmed by Jany as well as DC’s stylists when he’s worn the boots in post-SP shoots.

    Phew, That’s all good then! I hadn’t heard that confirmation and the more I looked, the more I starting to convince myself of something that wasn’t there!

    100% J.Crew, not sure Jany confirmed but they were confirmed by stylist when he wore them n a shoot.
