According to a release from Kingston Police, on Sunday, Jan. 8, 2023, at approximately 11:35 a.m., the complainant was walking home to their residence located in downtown Kingston, and noticed a suspicious man who appeared to be following them on foot for some distance. Upon arriving at their residence, the complainant noticed this man continuing to linger outside.

They look more like winter boots to me as I can’t see the symbols identifying them as work boots.
I don’t see them either, and do look the part. That being said, they aren’t always noticable, particularly if it’s attached to the outward part of the tongue, where it can be obscured.
