I saw these on another site and thought I'd post the link here as well. I think the boot color is a little to redish but other than that I think they'd make a fine Indy boot. The price is a bit steep but they are Red Wings and I know they make darn good shoes. Just another option to consider. workingperson.com/brands/1/Red+Wing+Boots+and+Shoes.htmlEdit: I can't seem to get the direct link to the boots to work but they are the Red Wing Boots: Red Wing 6 Inch Work Boots 202 listed on the page.

I saw those as well. I believe Deborah Nadoolman was once quoted as saying that the boots used in Raiders were actually Redwing boots. Possibly similar to this model. However, as we all know, the boots Ford actually wore were infact the Alden 405's. Gear lore has it that Ford supplied the Aldens on his own because he wanted something comfortable to work in, so the original costume may indeed have included the Red Wings until Ford made the switch himself...
Still, a good option that should probably find a home in the "close enough" boot category, although the price is a bit high (but still half the price of the Aldens...)
