Does a photograph of Neil Armstrong's spacesuit show that the tread of his boots didn't match the "footprints" he supposedly left on the moon?

The photographs included in the graphic displayed above are both real: Neil Armstrong’s spacesuit is shown on the left, and his lunar footprints can be seen on the right. The photograph of Neil Armstrong’s Apollo 11 spacesuit was taken in 2015 by astronomer Phil Plait as the historic garment was being preserved by the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum, and the Apollo 11 astronauts photographed themselves and the lunar terrain (including their footprints) as they walked on the moon.However, the footprint seen above wasn’t made by Neil Armstrong, but rather by fellow astronaut Buzz Aldrin, who accompanied Armstrong to the moon. Aldrin snapped that photograph of his own footprint to allow scientists to study the tensile strength of the lunar surface, and that photograph matches the tread on Aldrin’s boot, as documented in a picture taken by Armstrong as Aldrin descended the ladder from the LEM to the moon’s surface:
Overshoe, Lunar – Left, TrainingThis overshoe went over the regular boot area on the space suit version used on the Moon, called the A7LB Space Suit. The shoe provides extra protection from rips, tears, and dust to the basic space suit. These overshoes left the distinctive footprints, which are still on the Moon to this day.
