I assume these are the Coniston black or dark brown (more likely given tonal shift) rough out...but the images don't entirely sit with the C&J website images.
I think these are actually the Moltons based on the uppers design and toe shape; has the look of chukkas and the more square toe of the Molton. You can also see no laces across the boot uppers like the Coniston boot.

It's exactly what I was trying to show. The eyelets sit in a different way.
I think the roughout model is specifically made for the movie. The Molton seem discontinued on C&J site and are a personal favourite of Craig who wore the pretty same model in various occasions
I'm having trouble understanding why they'd use two similar boots like this. If one were black and the other were brown, okay. If one was rough out suede and the other was calfskin, okay. But the difference seems to be that one is close to a chukka style and the other is close to a dress boot style? From a costuming point of view, it seems odd to me, even if it's what has happened.

beside of that I have to ask again; they look black here?

C&J central office 2019: "...what if we put a different £500 dark brown shoe in every scene?!"... )
Agree they are Molton. I went to C&J in London last Thursday and spoke to the sales assistant about Bond and he made no mention Conistons being used in the movie. We also discussed other movies that C&J provided boots for such as Kingsman which did use Coniston boots among others
The Molton is a nice boot, but is anyone looking at this overall outfit and saying, "That looks great! I am going to totally rock this out in the world." (Contrast it with the Skyfall Scotland outfit.) A $700 pair of boots can't save a loose henley and an undistinguished pair of charcoal-black cords. I like the NTTD clothes more than most but won't be wearing this combination.
I'm with you, Cheverian. I really like this movie's wardrobe on the whole. But $700 for the boots, $400 for the cords, $160 for the Henley (he said with four in his closet), and then another $1200 for the duster? Nah, I'm good. It's a weird look for $2500.
But I don't have a pair of any brown suede Bond boots and I want a pair. Lot of options at this point: Ryder 3s, Drake's, Sanders, Molton, Kentons. The Molton's are probably most interesting to someone like me who doesn't have something like it in his closet.

Sorry but have to say I disagree with you on this one. I think this outfit is far more practical and wearable in real life than many of the other outfits in the movie. Most of the outfits to my eye have been a big disappointment. The N Peal woolly jumper looks a bit obvious and try hard.

Oh, I don't disagree with you! It's totally wearable. It looks like what I'd throw on to cut brush. You could piece the look together for less than $50. What I am saying is that it's undistinguished. Show up for a date wearing this and see how delighted your woman is.

Jack Ryan season 1—R&B henley, black pants and brown boots...his date certainly didn't seem to mind

Jack Ryan season 1—R&B henley, black pants and brown boots...his date certainly didn't seem to mind
I think its an understated casual look and yes you can put together something similar for $50 but like anything you can spot quality clothing vs cheaper imitations. This outfit actually cost in total $1,000 or more (mostly the shoes but still the trousers and henley are expensive items as well!!)
you're all forgetting the most important bit of these 'simple' outfits...the £30-40k per annum to provide a Bond or Ryan quality frame to hang the clothes on! )
Think how much happier Ryan's date would have been if he'd showed up like this!
And look, it's a good thing we all have different tastes. I also agree that quality clothing reveals itself. (There's also the matter of not knowing the plot turns of NTTD and why Bond is dressed this way. I'm guess that dressing up in a TF cardigan wouldn't be right for this scene.)
I just don't find the look worth emulating as an ensemble for anything much beyond tromping through the woods, which I wouldn't do in C&J boots. I want Bond clothes to inspire me to try to look better. Even the Enjoying Death outfit got me to try a patterned shirt which people seem to love on me, and the Menlo is my most worn leather jacket.
That said, I should note that I own not one but two of the R&B henleys and have my name in with Massimo Alba for the cord reissue. )

Yep I love this outfit with the shawl collar cardigan. In fact the NTTD outfit would look better with the cardigan on top of the Henley. That is an outfit I often wear having seen DC wear a white Henley under the grey Prada shawl cardigan and i think it’s a very cool look.

thats not fair to compare! the Talamone-outfit is probably the best causal outfit in the DC era, it has everthing, you are never overdressed or underdressed, you can wear it in the woods, you can wear it to a date, it is causal but has the bond elegance, its a masterpiece of costume design! : D
the Duster outfit is more limited, but it wasn't design for a date and from what I have seen from the trailer it works really well beside of that I really like the fact that it doesn't look like $2500, I'm not a fan of clothing which screams: look how expensive I am, among other things subtle clothing can be key to elegance, the devil is in the details
back to the C&J; if its true that there are really a pair of brown Moltons and Conistons I'll go for just one of them and combine them with both outfits, the price of two C&Js just hurts too much... I like the Conistons more I'm a huge fan of that style and I think they will work with both of them, Duster and RGT if it comes that way...wonder if there will be a causual outfit we haven't seen so far

I think I feel the same way about buying another pair of brown suede chukkas (rough out or not) as some do about buying another cardigan.
could you give me some advise on sizing please I take a size UK8 in the Loake Trapper would I be the same size in the C&J Moltons and the Highburys I would like to buy both limited editions when released thanks for your help

Yes defo black
Great, a change to brown!!!
1. CR. 2. TSWLM. 3. LTK. 4. GF. 5. SF.
Cause if you look at this model in rough out the don't have the cap toe. And the models are both in brown as stated by Omega magazine

Think that’s on the money. Although personally I’d probably prefer to wear the Coniston in the mud!
He has no problem in ruining them
Especially if they were issued by Q!
beside of that I have to ask again; they look black here?
