Sneakerhead Spotlight: Will aka @Mstr_WES (Copy)

Question 1: What’s in your current sneaker rotation?

Will: My Top 5: 

Air Jordan 1 High OG ‘Chicago’

Vans x WTAPS Sk8-Hi LX Blk ‘Bones’

Nike SB x Atlas Dunk High ‘Lost At Sea’

Nike SB Dunk low ‘StrangeLove’

Reebok Kamikazi II OG 

Question 2: What's the last pair you UNDS'd?

Will: Air Jordan 3 x A Ma Maníere

Question 3: What is your fave sneaker you currently own?

Will: My All-Time favorite sneaker is the Jordan 11 ‘Concord’ because it was my 1st pair of Jordan’s when they originally came out. (Now it’s a must to have a few on ice)

Question 4: What is your must-have grail?

Will: I have it already. It’s the Nike Dunk Low Premium ‘Haze’ from 2003. And  I’m proud to say that I’m the original owner of the shoe, not purchased after its release.

Current grails that I don’t have but still hunting for would be the Nike SB Dunk Low Pro ‘Chunky Dunky’, Air Jordan 1 High x Dior, and Air Jordan 1 High OG ‘Shattered Backboard’. Those are a must have for me, but unfortunately I missed out when they launched.

Question 5: What got you started in the sneaker game?

Will: I got started in the sneaker game by playing basketball as a kid, so ever since then I always wanted to have cool sneakers. This was back in the early 90’s when everybody “wanted to be like Mike”. My parents didn’t have much, so I only got new sneakers when my current ones were tore up. That’s what created a huge want/need for new fresh sneakers. From there, I was influenced by all of the other great basketball players like: Penny Hardaway, Allen Iverson, Shawn Kemp, Dee Brown, Jason Kidd, Gary Payton, Vince Carter, Scottie Pippen, etc.

Then my 2nd wave came in high school when I purchased my first pair of Dunks. They were the Highs in the ‘St. John’ colorway. Then from that point on I got in to collecting Dunks of all kinds; lows, highs, mids, premiums, Pro B’s, and SB’s.

Question 6: What's something that most people don't know about you?

Will: That I’m a “moaner”.

“Can I get a aaaaw yeeeah!” 🤣

Question 7 (optional): What do you do for a living?

Will: I’m a DJ, I’ve been DJ’ing since I was 11 years old. I’m also a CNC Machine Technician (shout out to all of the industrial workers out there! Much respect! 🙌)

Question 8: where can people follow you on social media? YT, Snapchat, IG etc.?
