I've had a set of those Icon boots in the nubuck color for about two years or so.  In that time I've never seen other boots that are the same.  Of course I'm happy with them, so I don't look much, but I still haven't seen any.  At least not any that are specific riding boots.

I have these boots as well in nubuck color.  I like them a lot. I am not sure how well they protect in a crush but they are very comfortable and better than snickers:)
I do not know any other boots in the same finish :(

icon has two. this one being the cheaper and better looking of the two.  i found a pair on ebay new for 30 bucks.  was going to put my bid in at the 5min mark but due to the time zones and my math, i was too late. went for 37 bucks.  what a deal

They may not be the style you are looking for, but have you looked at the Alpinestarts Stunt boots (http://www.alpinestars.com/_lp/details/stunt.htm)? I have the black/red Stunt and love them so much, I'll probably get the blue also.
