The G-15 looking lens is still available. They just call it Gray/Green now. I use to dislike KBCo because they had Gray C which was more Gray/Green. Then they added True Gray which was more like Gray C. It drove me crazy. Another option for you, is Younger's NuPolar G-15 in CR39 and Poly.
From my perspective, KBCo is now focussing on single vision lenses, as they are being used for all of the Essilor backside digital, and they are trying to capture the blank market for other digital designs. Since digital, the unique polarized progressives colors just don't have the usage anymore to sustain having inventory of the products.
We currently offer all of these colors in our Legacy series of digital progressives. I am sure many other labs offer them as well.
