his or her attorneys and agents to do any and all acts and things and to execute
and file any and all documents and instruments that such attorneys and agents,
or any of them, consider necessary or advisable to enable the undersigned (in

required to file pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act including,
without limitation, full power and authority to sign the undersigned's name, in

confirming all that such attorneys and agents, or any of them, shall do or cause

The undersigned agrees that the attorneys-in-fact act as legal counsel to

attorneys-in-fact for purposes of executing, acknowledging, delivering or filing
any such forms, or any amendments or any successor forms thereto, or any form or
forms adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission in lieu thereof or in
addition thereto. The undersigned agrees to reimburse Wolverine and the
attorneys-in-fact for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in
connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action.
This authorization shall supersede all prior authorizations to act for the
undersigned with respect to securities of Wolverine in these matters, which
prior authorizations are hereby revoked, and shall survive the termination of
the undersigned's status as a director and/or officer of Wolverine and remain in
effect thereafter for so long as the undersigned (in his or her individual
capacity or in a fiduciary or other capacity) is subject to Rule 144 with
respect to securities of Wolverine or has any obligation under Section 16 of the
Exchange Act with respect to securities of Wolverine.
