I could be wrong, but in Raiders, when we occasionally catch a glimpse of the top of Indy's boots, two things are apparent:
1. Ford didn't bother using the skate hooks.
2. The laces are round rather than flat.
Regarding 1, anyone here tie their Aldens this way? I have to say it's a bit fiddly winding the laces around the hooks, so I can understand why one might take shortcuts. I don't, though, as I'm worried it might be damaging to the boot in the long run.

iirc, ford leaves the top 2 hooks undone. you can see this in a screen cap somewhere.....oh vp??!?!?
the laces were different as well....i think this was discussed ages ago that his laces were the rounded type....could be wrong though. i know they are not your garden variety alden laces that you get today (in raiders).
