How about a defective pair of these boots, more within the price range of ordinary PCs, which were perfectly silent, but which had an unfortunate side effect (like they were white or glowing and therefore easily spotted, or they smelt horrendous).
Do they still work if they get wet? That could really annoy thieves on rainy nights. When they get old and worn do they start to become noisier? How would you get them resoled? Surely any old cobbler would shy away from such work, so obviously associated with thieves: maybe they'd have to be threatened...

Oh, and what's "Caster Level 15th"??
But still, I really like it and with a little adaption, it will be a wondrous item in my campaign!

We start with boots that give the wearer the power to travel through shadows and the ability to walk on walls or ceilings, somehow tied to someone named Jin Kalib. We're going to need a lot more before these items are worth putting into a game.
The name suggests something "Arabian Nights" to me: Perhaps these are the legendary curly-toed boots of the Djinn Khalib, perpetrator of 1,000 irritating pranks and roguish deceits. They are instantly recognized by dozens of Djinni and Ifriti, creatures whose grudges are legendary and whose power can be immense. When one of them sees the boots, they instantly suspect that their ancient nemesis has come to torment them again, this time disquised as a lowly adventurer.
Perhaps the embroidery of red silk is not meant to resemble a fishnet pattern at all: It is a web, for the brightly-dyed silk of these boots was taken from the legendary Spiders of Shadow, strange beings that haunt the Shadow Realm, eager to devour those who intrude upon their domains. Their strange call can draw even the purest soul into a realm where nightmares seem real and reality is a distant dream.
A potent item, those boots. I wonder what happened to that Jinn Kalib guy....
