Did you limp sometimes?

Hubby did that in the supermarket once. Turned the corner and there was an old man with a REAL limp. I laughed out loud...and hubby kept limping!!

The problem with limping is if you have to speed up you become too obvious. The changing gait was more about stiffness, relaxed, long but slow strides, quicker but shorter strides, a little bop, head down like looking for quarters, head up, a little swagger...things like that.

Unless someone expected to be followed they almost never turned around to look. The chance of being spotted came when the subject turned down a quiet street and I had to follow. At the end of the block or iff he turned the corner I'd duck into a doorway, switch the jacket and add or take off the glasses and hat.

Most of the time I'd follow from the other side of the street so I had that change option too.

I never lost anybody and as far as I know never got made.

Following in a car is a whole different deal.
