Summary

Episode 6 of THE STRANGE INTERLUDE PODCAST. This week’s guest is the creator of the brand BLEST CLOTHING. A clothing line that fluidly merges “Faith into Fashion”. Mikhal Asad is not one to pay someone else to slap a makeshift logo on a tee-shirt then try to sell to his followers on social media. He controls the production of his clothing every step of the way. He is skilled in graphic design so he makes own logos, prints/cuts the vinyl, then goes ahead heat presses it on the clothing all from his home studio lab. He and I touch on the underlying development the brand that he was working on for years. And being that he wasn’t always into fashion, his transition from being a standout basketball player is one that came with a lot of growing pains. He speaks on the obstacles he encountered during that time, how he learned to value his own perspective over the opinions of others, and how he transferred those experiences into making a brand by keeping his faith.
