I think the reverse welt on the Indys also has something to do with it. It widens the footprint of the shoe.

Finally arrived after a 3 month wait (for a "stock" shoe) - I'll post a picture when I pick them up tomorrow, as the leather looks much better in person. It's very similar to chromexcel, and I was looking for an all weather shoe I can beat up a bit.

Yep. I buy a pair for all of my shoes that cost more than $400.

They come in 2 scents as well. Cedar and something else. The sales person always look at me like I'm nuts when I buy the 3-4 at a time.
