    I have those natural Indy boots, it’s one of my favorite leather treatments. Highly recommend picking those up if you can.

    I’m pretty sure those Aldens have leather soles — ’cause I would’ve bought them a while back if they had the regular Indy boot soles instead.

    @ Brian – The product description says cork / neoprene, but the images show leather. I’d email TSM to find out for sure.

    As an update, I emailed and TSM says it’s the cork / neoprene like the description.
