Brian Wilson‘s self-expression doesn’t end with his facial hair. It also extends to his shoes.

Wilson has an amazing pair of shoes right now, custom painted with kangaroos, a koala and a picture of “Sir Elton.”

What/who is Sir Elton?

Yes, Sir Elton is Brian Wilson’s nickname for his knuckleball.

Because of course.

What I want to know is, what happens to the shoes if Wilson goes into a slump?

Is there some kind of cleansing ritual? Do the shoes get floated out to sea on a tiny raft and set on fire with a flaming arrow?

Or does Wilson just toss them in a closet?

These are the kinds of questions that keep me up nights.
