Wes Johnson

Guard/Forward, Minnesota Timberwolves

Style

Smooth, preppy, and fun.

Growth spurt

In 10th grade I grew from 5’8” to 6’2.” I’m 6’8” now.

Top honors

Voted best dressed at the NBA draft 2010. My brother-in-law designed my suit.

First post-draft purchase

A Range Rover

Playing fashion advisor

Sebastian Telfair (Timberwolves teammate) and I like to dress up. The other guys will ask us, “Does this look right?” They need help.

Style icons

Kobe Bryant and Carmelo Anthony‐I watch what they wear. But I ask my brother and brother-in-law for advice.

Well suited

I have 12 suits now.

Off the rack

A lot of Ralph Lauren fits me off the rack. I shop anywhere—Club Monaco, Macy’s, Mall of America—I can always find something: jeans, belts, shoes.

Favorite designers

Louis Vuitton, Fendi, Ferragamo.

Favorite local shopping area

Southdale and the Galleria.

On the court

I like my shorts a little long and my jersey fitted.

On Johnson:

Sweater by Abercrombie & Fitch, shirt and shoes by Ralph Lauren, bow tie by Brooks Brothers, jeans by Raleigh.
