Default Navy patent jumbo coming back for fall???

I checked the BG lookbooks and I think the Navy jumbo is coming in patent as well for fall act 2, does anyone know if this is true? Would the patent be crackled like the previous patent jumbos. Any help would be really appreciated

^ the green is calf patent not goat, so i think it's going to be more structured like your blush patent.

I saw a tiny swatch of the vert fonce and didn't notice any distress or crackle to the leather. It was really smooth.

blush and navy are calfskin patent. the pre-fall patent are goatskin. fall act ii is also going to be calfskin.

Thank you so much for all your replies ladies, my search for the navy crackled patent jumbo will continue . Is it true that the more structured patent is harder to maintain in terms of scratches compared to the crackled version???
