You mean black 405s? Cause there are already black cordovan shell AF76s available, from Alden of Carmel:

I have a pair of 405's that were custom made for me several years ago in black. Wonderful boots -- Just expensive! W>

Don't know where Carmel (California?) is though, I'm from Europe :-)

These boots are pretty much more expensive than standard 405s cause they are made of shell cordovan but worth every penny. But I must say I wouldn't have bought them without the $/€ exchange rate being as it is.
