The black looks cool but (imho) the natural is better. I speak from experience. The properties of the black are not the same and the tan - it doesn't stretch as far before breaking, it takes a set easier and the tan ages better (which is not to say that the tan ages well -- it doesn't -- but that the black ages much much worse).
It is possible that I just got a bad batch of black, but I am not going to risk it.
My advice: stick with the tan.
