Are you starting to think that's your career?īRIDGES: I think that is my career, definitely. But now since the demand has gotten up, we couldn't, you know, handle all of it. Of course when I spoke on the show, we were all doing the ties. They make all of our ties, and then they send them to us. We have a couple of ladies in Memphis, Tenn. So I told her to teach me how to sew.ĬORNISH: So now that you're a little bit older and now that you've struck this huge deal, do you have a factory (laughter) or a manufacturing deal? Who's making the ties?īRIDGES: We have a - I like to call it a little factory. But as I got older and as she got older, I decided that I didn't want her to work as hard. But first, she taught - she made me custom bow ties. She taught me how to sew when I was about 9 years old. I think it was from your grandmother, right?īRIDGES: Yes, it was from my grandmother. And he just has a very fun and playful style.ĬORNISH: When we last spoke, you talked about learning to sew. One of my favorite players that has a very iconic style is Russell Westbrook. And this deal basically means that I get sell in more arenas and hopefully to some players and to different people who love wearing NBA's logo.ĬORNISH: I think it's actually a good match because NBA guys are pretty styling, right? I mean it seems like they.īRIDGES: Yeah, they're coming up off of style now. And after that, that's when we sparked the deal. So it's like a two-sided tie.īRIDGES: Well, they came to me because ESPN hired me to be a fashion correspondent for the 2015 NBA draft. But also, it's one side with the logos of the favorite team of that person but also the favorite print and the classic print of that person. I think I was more successful than I am or than I was when I last came here.ĬORNISH: Yeah, I would say because (laughter) the NBA approached you with essentially, I hear, a seven-figure licensing deal, which I guess means you get to make bow ties that have the logos of every team in the league. Moziah Bridges, welcome back to the program.ĬORNISH: So are bow ties back? Were you successful?īRIDGES: Well, bow ties are back. MOZIAH BRIDGES: I want to bring the bow tie back, and I want to make it look better than what it used to be.ĬORNISH: Moziah is the Mo's in Mo's Bows, a company he started in Memphis with his mom when he was 9. On this program in 2014, Moziah Bridges told us about his dream.
