He did not use it.Jay and Mike sit down with Kevin Leonel — a Dominican American designer from Brooklyn who walked away from a baseball career, chose a sewing machine over a PS5, enrolled in YouTube University, and skipped straight past t-shirts to cut and sew. No formal fashion school. No industry co-sign. Just vision, craft, and an obsessive belief that sports and fashion belonged in the same conversation.We get into all of it. Growing up Dominican in Brooklyn and spending summers in the DR. Going from Jordans in the hood to bow ties at boarding school in Connecticut. Chasing baseball dreams all the way to California and the Dominican Republic before walking away. How watching Michael B. Jordan's stylist team at the One Hotel planted the seed. Why he chose a sewing machine over a PS5 during COVID and how his fiance made the call. The first piece he ever sold — a Willie Mays Giants upcycle for a hundred dollars to his cousin. How MLB sent him three cease and desist letters and eventually took down his entire Instagram page. How Urban Outfitters came knocking in year two when he was still sewing in a studio apartment. And the collaborations with Apple, the NHL, NBA, and more that all came to him organically because he never stopped putting in the work.This is the episode for every creative who figured it out on their own terms.Subscribe to the Last Flight Out Podcast on YouTube and wherever you listen to podcasts.
