While I see the third tab and get the joke, to the other part and for those unaware, space suits for the Apollo missions consisted of inner pressure boots that were part of the pressure suit and outer “over boots” that went over the pressure shoes because well… you walk on your feet generally and if you step on a rock etc. and puncture your pressure boots that would sure be a terrible way to die- so they placed thicker over boots to offer more protection and help with other technical issues concerning the trip. Why don’t we see those boots in museums? A bit hard as they were left on the moon. The Apollo 11 moon crew left their outer boots and quite a few other things behind in the moon to save weight for samples being brought back. Later moon missions did bring their boots back and you can see they match the photos of the lunar footprints.
