    Allen Edmonds Dalton Boots-non-burnished option?

    I like the Allen Edmonds Dalton boots, but do not care for the burnished toe, which seems to be the only option available currently. Does anyone know if non burnished toe options are available, presumably on eBay, and how many years back you would need to go to get one? Alternately, would...
