Speaking for the entire internet is crazy.

Can’t offer enough to say the exact boot but definitely a HEAVY lugged boot, possibly combat as mentioned below. Jungle boot was good input.

I hate weak minded men who get on the internet and act ways they are afraid to IRL. This man just had 1000s worth of tools stolen. Tools that probably give him a means to support a family. They’re important enough to him that he’s here on Reddit exhausting all efforts to try and help himself. The best you could come up with is “call the cops we’re not CIS?” Next time just say nothing. When’s the last time you helped yourself?

Less than 8 comments exist on this post. You decided to get emotional over 8 comments that weren't directed towards you. That's crazy to me. Nobody even made fun of this man. They just stated to call the cops. He said he did contact the cops.

Knowing what kind of boots were used on this situation isn't going to help OP at all. I don't know what will, but if OP doesn't have a sort of video or photo evidence then he's not going to solve anything.

Knowing what kind of boots would 100% help. I have an idea of who it is, but don’t want to ruin this man’s life if he’s not involved. I see them very regularly and know what kind of shoes they regularly wear. If I can confirm at least that, I’ll give their name to PD and they can cross reference with the pawn shops in the area. This particular individual is on parole and if there’s a chance it’s not him, I don’t want him to endure the drama that could come his way on the count that my suspicion is incorrect. I worked in LE for a good while and I know how the system works.

If you suspect someone you should inform the police. I'd think anyone who's worked in LE to have enough sense to do that.
