Yes. In my collection, if I were to have to grab a pair of shoes to depend my life upon, it would probably be a pair of Black Pebble Gunboats with commando soles. I've ridden mine pretty damn hard, and they just keep taking it.

Now I do love my Alden LHS, so much so that I own it in nearly every combo it comes in, however, florsheim still does make a more robust shoe IMO.
