Can anybody identify the make and type of footwear from these imprints? Its a long shot, but might be useful. Thanks.

Have had some unwanted visitors

Yes, just about monthlyish on a Sunday night, starting August Bank holiday weekend and again early September. They also visit the neighbours. We think looking for quad bike but we don't have one since it was stolen. Always something handy taken as they go through the sheds. Bosch mains electric drill and green 20 litre gerry can gone. They always crop all the locks off.
Alarm system now fitted so hope it slows them down a bit. Police not really interested but I am.

Sole has distinctive pattern at insole area but cant find it on google. Just wondered if anybody recognised make, in case they visit during daylight hours on a recce.
Cheers.

They come back to see if you’ve replaced the stolen one with a new one with the insurance payout !!
If you know where they go ....set up a wildlife camera.

That's what they seem to be doing. I now have trail cameras at various locations. (y)
Really need something like a giant mole trap.

Trainers not boots, I wouldn't like to guess at the brand but the wearer walks slightly awkwardly on the right foot (rolls it slightly to one side). The joys of mild autistic tendencies and a few tracking courses teaches one a whole world of useless skills , need a few more pics really though :)

Whats the point of camera's? The police won't do anything even if you have proof in my experience.

Do you have metal doors? Electric shocks can be a deterrent. Trip wires connected to empty shot gun cartridges have been mentioned in past. Could a gas gun with electric controls be wired up to a sensor?
