Nothing good ever happens in the back of a barbershop.
It’s all meat pies, flesh-eating alien plants and dudes in boater hats harmonizing.
The lone, deliciously scented exception to that corollary: Footprint, the new backcountry-inspired general store now open at the rear of Fellow Barber.
Formerly home to the FSC haberdashery, Footprint is built for the pre-shave, post-trim browser — plenty of dry goods that are easy to haul back to the office, not to mention inspiration for unscheduled trips to the woods.
Curated by Fellow Barber’s Sam Buffa and Riki Bryan, highlights include the latest offerings from Juniper Ridge, blades from Santa Fe Stoneworks, Bags by Filson and even the odd luxe flask.
And shaving kits, naturally. So many shaving kits.
So when you’re done cleaning up those sideburns, pare down the gifting list without adding a stop.
Hello, my baby. Hello, my honey pie.
