Available 501st or not?

The CRL say :

A "dog bone" shaped strap covers the bridge of the foot.Dog bones have double stitching along the rounded edges as seen in the film.

As you can see in the photos the "dog bone" protrudes on the sides. Does this pose a problem for a 501st validation? Thank you for your return😉

Those look like the scout boots from Imperial Boots, is that correct? I've seen a number of examples of their boots in the past, but this is the first time I've seen the dog bones protrude onto the soles.

They should be fine for basic clearance, but will not pass for level 2 (Lancer) as is.

Yes these are boots made by imperialboots received this week. The members of the 501st french Garrison were astonished and advised me to seek your opinion to answer my questions. I sent the photos to IB and asked him the same question. I'm waiting for his return. I am still reassured by your answer. Thank you.
