Neil Armstrong's boots are still on the moon along with all the others from the Apollo missions. This was to reduce the weight they had to bring back. The silicone and synthetic fabrics have probably off-gassed and degraded so they'd likely turn to powder if touched.

I'm more interested in the astronaut poop left behind on the moon. Long-term evolution of organics and microbe characteristics in near-perfect vacuum.
