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?

I don't want boots because I want the gravity (Force) to be felt all over the body, so that everything we do takes effort. Training in this suit could allow us to easily navigate planets with higher gravity than ours, right?
The suit won't stop you from eating because you can take it off. Your can breathe through a hole in front of your mouth and nostrils.
This would require an advanced fabric, thats like a flexible magnetic plate, that can bend and curve like cloth.

I suppose we all thought that, in one way or another"
