| IMHO, the catalog for parts and [P=92253c00pb05] is a mess.
The image for both parts seem to have Tan shoes.
If you check the minifigures that contain the two parts, the images of those
minifigures seem to me to have mixed Tan and Dark Tan shoes.
My assumption is that the version with Dark Tan shoes doesn't actually exist.
I believe it is the result of the change from single mold with print to dual
mold without print. Painting Tan on Dark Blue will seem darker than painting
Tan on a lighter colored brick. So the "Dark Tan" print may in fact very
well be Tan on Dark Blue.
Please look at the comparison images of the former part. It shows the two different
molds with two clearly different Tan colors.
I have an disappointed customer at this point, and I hope someone will look into
this. Unless someone can find a dual mold Dark Tan shoe part, I suggest merging
these to parts.

I've suggested this 2 or 3 times over the years. The original submission
was only left as Dark Tan because of a dark image and perhaps maybe no one wanted
to contradict the original submitter. Let's hope it gets settled this time!
 Every copy of I have of this part is Tan print on Dark Blue plastic or dual
molded. I have never seen evidence of Dark Tan shoes for this part.
