I noticed nothing in stock in my size. Then I realized that if something had been available, I probably would have already received a call about it!
She got tired of me saying I had too many boots. She probably did mention it to me before, I just wasn’t in a boot buying mood. Apparently, I am today. ;)

I just got my Hamiltons in Chili. Great looking boot and color. Oxblood would be nice too, but too close in color for me to have both.

If I were to get another boot, it would be the Lombard Chelsea boot in merlot.

You mean like these? ?

A pair of black Bostonian Cap-Toes (that I bought around the turn of the century)

Alas, I mourn for the loss of the classic Bostonian cap-toe. I forget the name of the style, but there was a traditional blucher with a rounded toe that fit me like a glove and didn't make my freakishly large feet look like clown shoes. Then the pointy-toe elf style stormed the world and the style was discontinued. I wore these things for decades as a travel/work shoe.

You might want to try the Hopkinson, if you can find one in your size; I have wide feet (3E on the 201) with a high instep and they still manage to look pretty sleek on me:
