Is this correct: “Semper Induam Novum Virum”? (Original ~ ‘May I always be putting on the new man’)
Not sure particularly about the usage for induam (induo,induere), as far as I can tell no progressive tenses in Latin (be --ing).

*Induam *looks correct to me,

However I would suggest *novum hominem *(new man(person)) rather than *novum virum *(new man(male)).

Thanks, this is for a personal motto (plus emphasis on the cant when noted in a heraldic blazon), hence the use of vir vs homo.
