Glad you like that one. I wanted to condense down the essence of grey man theory as it applies to clothes.

grey man theory

huh! This I must look into further.

Behaviour matters a lot to the grey man. Too much emphasis on clothing and gear. I try practise switching on the "big presence" where I want to be noticed and switching it off when I want to go less noticed.

Yea, I hear that. I also think it's kind of silly to live your life based on an apocalypse that may never come.

Agreed. I'm no survivalist or prepper thinking SHTF is coming. Grey man I find useful in many ways. There are a lot of situations when I don't want to be noticed. Some of the skills are transferrable to my outdoors life. The rest is creativity: thinking about how people carve out a niche of sucess in any given situation helps me in writing, UX and business. :)

Very cool. Do you do UX design? architecture? And yes, I'm very down with not wanting to attract attention. Or at least specific kinds of attention.

I do some UX, for my own or consulting or teaching. I do a little of a lot of things though. Not architecture though. You?
