I have a couple of pairs of standard Conistons. Does anyone know if it would be possible to have the speed hooks and eyelets changed to (exposed) antique brass ones as shown in the image? If so would this be a job for my local cobbler or should I send them to C and J? View attachment 2089651 Thanks for any advice.

Possible, yes. It requires the seams to be popped and resewn. I would choose a reputable cobbler and make sure he has the right kind of eyelets.

Has anyone got the black roughout conistons? I don't own a pair of black shoes or boots and I really like the look of these. I'm wearing my tan conistons a lot less this year in favour of darker colours
