A Day In the Life Of a Mule-Wearing Man

From dawn til dusk, the mule-wearing man knows no rest. He’s a busy man with places to go and people to see, but all his errands can’t harsh his relaxed, happy vibe. What keeps the mule-wearing man so occupied? Go for a walk with us through his day.

6:00 A.M.

The sun shines through the mule-wearing man’s curtainless windows, awakening him with a caress upon his eyelids. He rises, extending his arms to the air, and sighs—it’s yoga time. Swinging his legs over the side of the bed, he slips his feet into a pair of cozy shearling-lined slippers and walks to his yoga mat, where he salutes the sun in true yogi style.

7:30 A.M.

A run to the organic market on the corner yields him a perfectly ripe avocado, a loaf of bread, and a pound of fair-trade coffee beans. For this excursion he retains his yoga-appropriate tapered sweats and tank top, but exchanges his house slippers for a pair of open-back rubber sandals. His avocado toast is, predictably, delicious.

9:00 A.M.

Just because the mule-wearing man is a zen master, doesn’t mean he doesn’t have to work for a living. Luckily, his creative-centric workplace welcomes the expression of personal style, so his coworkers don’t blink an eye when he strolls into the office wearing rolled-up chinos, a loose, slightly undone button-down, and sturdy leather mule sandals broken in by years of wear. Dressed this comfortably, he can do his work in peace.

6:00 P.M.

Leaving work, the mule-wearing man smiles as he thinks of the dinner he’s going to cook that evening for himself and a lucky date. As he starts to heat up the stove, he slips on a pair of protective rubber mule clogs that will prevent hot oil splatters and falling knives from hurting his feet as he shows off his culinary know-how. Dinner is spectacular—nutritious, delicious and fresh.

9:00 P.M.

Having wound things down for the night, he’s ready to settle in and enjoy a few chapters of his book on his balcony. Felt slippers are just warm enough to insulate his feet from the cool of the evening, and a vintage celluloid bulb illuminates his pages. Before long he becomes drowsy and must head to the comfort of his bed. All in all, he says to himself, it was a day well spent.
