The logo represents the slogan of the brand “Be fly, be you”. Its Yung as a cartoon Pilot. When asked what it means to him he said “It’s just me being fly, me being me as a pilot. Branding myself, being different and to set a trend were people can be different and be there self.”  Yung was born in Columbus Ohio and grew up in Orlando Florida. When asked about his childhood he said “I grew up not on the ruff ruff end but it still was a struggle , I grew up with both of my  parents being the only child I had to learn responsibility at a young age , didn't really fall for the peer pressure and i never followed any one or looked up to anyone and I didn't like working for anyone , so I think that made me very independent and self-made But  my first couple jobs were customer service so  i was always into sales and marketing and had dreams of owning my own business one day,”  Yung got in to design when he was 14. “I Probably started falling in Love With Fashion my Freshmen year in high school my age 14 Plus i was tired of dressing like everyone else , I just  wanted to start my own brand and trend to be different and still stand out while still being me.”  Russell Simmons is his favourite designer and Daymond John inspires him. “how he started fubu , & what he has become today.” He has worked with “Tone Trump (A West Philly artist) and drop (Orlando Artist) and he is working with up and coming porn star “kimmy Olsen” on launching her clothing line #TKO Collection in April of 2014.

Young also wants to work with Currency. “I would love to work with currency and collab on his jetlife movement.”  Not only is Yung into fashion but he’s a song writer, writes poetry and does social marketing. He plans to eventually expand in to fragrance, children's collection , and expand and go global , have pilot work clothing in local shops all across the world.  Young Mang is a young entrepreneur on the rise with dedication and ambition and extremely focused on being one the largest fashion designers worldwide.
