My current gravel (Clement Xplor 40) tyres are approaching replacement. I'd like to increase the volume a bit, plus jump on the fashion wagon with some tan sidewalls. Ideally a smooth centre section with some tame tread on the sides. Pie in the sky? Any ideas?
Soma Cazadero: 42c, tan wall, smooth centre section with tread on the sides.
WTB Resolutes?
Panaracer Gravelking SK 700x43?
Challenge Gravel Grinder 700x42

PX are flogging them for £18

Tan sidewalls rock.
Compass (now called René Herse apparently) Steilacoom are awesome but only 38mm and might be a bit knobbly for you (but they do roll well). I’ve had them on for a few months now and am about to order some more.
They do others that would be worth a look -
Wwaswas I’ve been looking at those how do you find them?
42mm resolutes +1
Slightly beefier option WTB Nanos, they roll beautifully.
I have WTB Horizon's on my Glencoe.
They are do able off road but I wouldn't want to hack into a corner on them.
Depends on how you use the bike I guess.
