2/ Cost savings. Possible piggybacking on UK or French orders.
3/ Operational requirement. Black leather is unsuited to hot climates,and desert tan suede is unsuited to the Irish climate but a modern Brown waterproof breathable boot with the latest generation Goretex membrane(ePTFE) can also keep your feet cool in hot weather so could be used both at home and overseas.
4/ Better Cam and Con. Brown blend in better.Some like to say "there is no black in nature". Explain the crow so!
