In 2019 Wolf & Shepherd began working on a project with 3X NBA All Star and NBA Hall of Famer, Steve Nash, to create the future of dress shoes. I worked directly with Steve and the rest of the W&S team to design a product that would not only satisfy his tastes and needs as an entrepreneur, philanthropist, and family man, but also to serve the vision of Wolf & Shepherd to become the leader in dress and dress-casual footwear.
