January 20, 2010 ⋅ HBTV ⋅ by Staff ⋅ 34 Views

Our second installment of Hypebeast TV takes us to the East Coast as we visit the offices of Leah McSweeney and her MOB Girls. A brand with an attitude unlike any other, we’re taken on a candid behind-the-scenes of Married to the Mob’s office setting with a look into the various personalities that give MTTM its character. Along the way, Leah McSweeney and her crew talk about inspirations and the evolution of the brand.

    @Jonas McBonus: Are you dizzy?!
    Perhaps you should wise up before making bold statements like that.
    Duffer St George…. LOOOL! What have they ever done for street fashion? …And MHI is played out – any old Tom, Dick and Harry has their garms, so don’t go on like it’s the pinnacle of London style. Next time you’re in the UK, try hitting up shops like Hideout, Slam City, BLB, Dover Street Market and some of the other ‘East End’ stores….

    AIRMAX2RD;
    NIKE is a world wide brand? shes not comparing them to her company or putting them on the same level. SUPRA, AND VOLCOM are sold in pacsuns, and zumies and plenty of other chain stores.
    she is talking about underground brands, while they are still around im sure the sales arent as high as they were a few years ago.
    and AGAIN, chaNel, victorias secret, and forever 21, are all national chain retailers. MTTM is alot more exclusive and underground. bad comparison.

    Like the line and the concept behing the line. Go Leah.
    Drop the Hood act though. And how does she know what other lines are producing monetarily? Don’t hate because you ain’t there yet doll, just keep doing your thang and you’ll get there.

    Leah, don’t waste your time with the hateraid. Go get that money, and keep reppin for the tri state. MOB takeover 2010….and all you maricon mofo’s grab some popcorn and watch how MOB does it.

    I used to totally hate on this girl for no reason. Mostly b/c the dude I rolled with was a bitch, a gossip and an antagonizer. But he’s in L.A. now, bitchin it up out there. Now, I am proud that I ever even knew her. You go girl. No matter what you do, you have paved a successful road for yourself and the people you surround yourself with.

    Ok.

    I too feel that HB had better options than MTTM as the second installment.

    I’m curious to know or understand what Leah means when she states, no one is doing well right now. HUF, 10 DEEP & SUPRA are HOT no? NIKE & VOLCOM have bounced back! Oh, a woman’s brand… what about Forever 21, Channel or Victoria Secret?

    As the leader of MTTM what is Leah doing to buck the trend from a business perspective?

    Thanks HB for helping me understand what it takes to build a bubble-gum LLC.
