Picked up some new-to-me Barker shoes from Vinted for an absolute steal. Quirky, stylish and in excellent condition. They’re part of the manufacturer’s Creative Collection, and have exactly the right amount of whimsy for my tastes. The detailing gives musical clef vibes, which I’m down with. Shame I’m only a drummer.

Decided to work from today, (I tend to get more done at home at times), Plus I have some Society of Ordinary Gentleman business to get done as well as recording and editing to do for The Gentleman's Forum and The Gentlemen of Faith Podcast. I believe it's going to be a long day and night today. There are some great shows coming out soon, ones that I hope will encouragement to be the best version of gentlemen that they can be.
