I had a weird moment today.
As I crossed the road going towards the National Gallery, I found myself passed by a man in a GoRuck pack, with custom IEMs, and New Balance shoes. These are very specific male interests for a certain set of us who live a lot online, and it was strange to see someone who had similar tastes as me in real life. Maybe for females, it would be the equivalent of seeing someone in the exact same dress as you. Does that still happen these days?
Anyway, my concluding thoughts was: no matter how niche and obscure I think I’ve gotten, there are definitely other people just like me.
I was wearing raw denim, Tom sachs shoes, and my goruck is made beaten down, the black has greened.
