I'm still looking at some unlined suede, either Chukka or Teijn loafer
Regarding colour, I'm drawn to snuff, but feel dark brown will be more formal/adaptable.
Do you find your snuff boots can be worn with as many outfits as dark brown? Snuff with a suit or business casual for example?
Speaking of unlined... Whiskey Shell Cordovan Harvard 314 last.

Agree C&J handgrades are terrific value. Furthermore, the maker has by and large resisted the temptation to introduce new "fashion forward" styles (the Truro trainer notwithstanding). For me, they excel at robust English classics, such as the Bradford captoe derby and the Pembroke full brogue. One caveat about C&J's lasts, however, which makes comparison with G&G difficult: they tend to favour a higher-instep, larger-volume foot. G&G's lasts are much sleeker and suit my shallow foot much better. I would also argue that G&G's manufacture (e.g. neatness and density of stitching) is a level above, even though I often find myself preferring C&J's quintessentially English styles.
