Not so close or close enough?

I don't think it's really that close, but not a bad looking boot. Probably well made also.

have you seen the Todds? they're cheaper and more than close enough...

of course they don't have a very good selection of sizes

If you needed an inexpensive boot that would also be good for work, yard maintenance, etc., I think this would be okay. Not SA, but if you distressed and darkened the leather up and changed the laces and kept the top covered with the pants legs, it could be made passable for Indy. If you cannot afford Aldens (like me), Todd's would be a better alternative for screen-accuracy obviously, but if you really needed a hard-working boot for things other than Indy this would probably be the better way to go.
