"The Most Powerful Man in Sports. I certainly was not aware of that when I first met him. Richard Hamilton introduced me to him one evening after a game in Detroit. It wasn't until that night after I got home did I realize who HE was (thanks to Wikipedia). I am not really sure as to the reasons why, but Uncle Wes soon after began to take me under his wing. I then started to become known as "the sneaker guy" around the Palace of Auburn Hills, ha.
Anyways, Uncle Wes gave me numerous opportunities to create some shoes for him and his family. Below you'll see pictures of shoes I did for him, his brother, son, and new-born baby girl. Some of which have attracted numerous media sources, including my first national exposure into SLAM magazine, which I grew up reading every issue as a basketball-loving kid!" -T.WAY
