The RBW web-site has "out-of-stock" indicators for black/black pants, which as far as I know have not yet been "in-stock"... don't know if that means they're coming in time for this winter or not; those indicators have been there a while.
But if the blue-crotch thing is the only thing stopping you, there may be a MUSA-brand solution in the pipeline. Worth a call to RBWHQ. Of course, you'll still have the scotchlite patch to mark you. Me, I don't care. Blue-crotch, green-crotch, shorts, longs, and recently knickers.... all of cycling pants are RBW MUSA. The only issue I have with them is that my butternut/olive longs and my olive/blue longs are billowy enough to develop grease tatoos above the cinch from the chain well behind the chainrings. But I don't really care. My "look" has enough intrinsic quirk that the quirk RBW pants add is marginal. And I kind of like the quirk anyway. When I add suspenders, I'm a well-fed Frodo.
