Why would the suit need to mold to your body if its sole purpose is to be attracted to the floor. Why not magnetic boots?

Is it possible to strengthen this magnetic attraction and allow the an astronaut wearing the suit to experience equal gravity to that on Earth, or greater, yet allow them to be as agile as if the weren't wearing it at all?

You could, in theory, use an
electro-magnet placed in a boot that has some type of automatic variable resistance to allow for different strengths. If it is too strong, you can't move. If it is too weak, you float away.
How do you envision this working exactly?
