It could be that his language was oddly formal in wording but not necessarily so in tone. It could be the cloak he wore- old and worn and looking like something from medieval times at most. It could be the fact that it was paired with, of all things, perfectly normal-looking jeans, or that there didn't seem to be a shirt under it (not that that would have been visible for more than a moment before he pulled it closed over himself, and who could blame him?)
There were many things odd about Enoch to the modern observer, if they were observant enough. He was not modern. He was very out of place in this town in many ways.
Not the least of which was the sandaled feet he pointed down to. "What I mean by that is, if I lose my feet, I will be unable to move, unless I am lucky enough to find two canes to support me. I've only been here three days and can't think of anything more than finding some proper shoes for this weather..."
A shirt is easy. There are curtains and bedsheets and things he could make into one if he could find sewing supplies - and those can't be uncommon, he can't imagine a household without them. Another symptom of the age he came from.
