- The latest iteration of our 'In Real Life' series takes us to Britain, where we spent the day with Leo Mandella, better known as @gullyguyleo. The young fashion icon has built an impressive following - over 500,000 Instagram followers - and was tapped to become the face of Converse‘s “Rated One Star” campaign.
Mandella built his fanbase with outfits that incorporated increasingly rare goods from the likes of Supreme and Palace. After showcasing how he updates his school uniform with personalized flair, Mandella states, “Everyone was kinda dressing the same … it was more about dressing to fit in than dressing how you wanna dress.” After school, he dons yellow Golf le Fleur sneakers and a matching puffer vest, taking us back to his parents house.
He walks us through the development of his personal style in this episode, starting with one of his first Supreme pieces and leading to his impressive collection of sneakers. Mandella gives his mom and friends credit for taking his now iconic Instagram photos before describing the evolution of his own style, noting “I don’t knock anyone’s hustle … I think that’s what people need to start doing, I think that’s why people hate.”

say what you want, he's 15 and getting put on billboards and busses for taking pictures in supreme. he's doing his thing and no one can knock it.
mr. sock bruh he legit explained that he had one supreme piece and resold it and just kept doing that
mr. sock
Shhhhh shut up hater
There is many students that do this and I use to.cause I went to a catholic school but wheres my billboards smh
dude did you see his house? no, it wasnt bad but it doesnt exactly scream im super rich does it?
mr. sock you didn’t even watch the video did you? He explained that he wasn’t born into it and that he made the money himself reselling clothes.
Dude is extremely humble and wise at a young age. Way ahead of his time
Allan Pilapil he rly isnt ahead of time, hes just a hypebeast
CŁØŪĐ //Gaming And Dubstep// but he has better style than most overrated hypebeast youtuber and he brought himself up too
Ryan Calisaan its not hard to look good in clothes of that quality you know, i could do that but i aint blowing out £300 for a pair of trainers
Its not just the clothing. Its how he markets himself, the connections he makes, and how he's grinding towards something he loves and being good at all that while making a name for himself within a certain culture is not the easiest thing to do. If it were easy then every fuckboy with clout goggle and a supreme bogo would be doing it...
Leo is fking dope he is one my fashion idol
At first I thought he was just some corny hypebeast but deffo got mad respect for him for doing him and making it big and working his way up.
Props to him and his converse collab
frightened yuri real shit
Same same
lol it's impossible to be a hype beast and not be corny
It’s not his collab converse just got a bunch of people to wear the one star and the yellow ones are tyler the creators
Leo is fking dope he is one my fashion idol
Can't hate on someone that's 15 and doing his thing while spreading positivity.
Getting his money, travelling around the world, booking modelling gigs while going to school and only at 15.
I don't think buying those clothings is even worth it
@Whole Lotta Choppa1 yeah exactly
@@qwertyki9367 they are because he makes money off social media which is him styling the clothes and even then the clothes he gets have value so he could sell them afterwards
I can see him developing in to a designer 10 Years from now
I guess that would have been the case in the past.. nowdays with all the possibilities of technology maybe 2-3 years.
He already have a streetwear brand which is getting sold out quite fast tbh and have streetwear value.
Malik Morris stylist first
Malik Morris I'm thinking more of a world class model and photographer.
He selling merchs
“ Its 2018, people need to start appreciating hustle”
Real talk!! Do your thing man! The hate will give you leverage
I feel like he works with what he has and has worked for what he has. Impressive
Mad props to him, he's wearing supreme, the way it is supposed to be. Not wearing it with a pair of UB and skinny jeans
Mads Harforte what's a UB?
Mads Harforte yeah what’s UB
Matty plays Adidas Ultra boost
huda abdi Adidas Ultra boost
lmao stfu
He’s been 15 for 3 years?
TorVevo he’s been 15 for less than a year
Anna Harvey *woosh*
TorVevo lol
Anna Harvey
A supreme hoodie just went over your head
+CJ alicea omg your comment is so f*ckin cute!! made me laugh
Can’t front this kid can dress. Not everyone can wear bright colors and get it off.
ArtGod watcha mean
Trust me
Yup! His earlier choices were... bad. But now, he has some really good outfits.
Leo doing bits out here for the non privileged kids
Tommy Nichols m
Toii iivo how is he middle class? And yes haha white privileges funny meme!
Toii iivo this kid is clearly not the uber wealthy kids we see on social media . He hasn’t the opportunities that those others have and yet he still has fire fits and still managed to build a collection . Fuck off wth that SJW bs
Non privileged my ass
He wears supreme to school and sounds so fucking posh LMFAOOOOOO
One of the few guys on the gram that can integrate the most hype items in well put together, color coordinated fits
Gully's unique facial features and persona just drives him to be indepedent with his work, and more exposed compared to everyone else doing it.
Glad he's famous.
bigdaddydill what does his facial features have to do with anything?
Esco Martinez a lot
21 Savage's Gun like?
Unique people stand out. If that doesn't make sense you're blindly being empathetic for no reason, he's unique and it's amazing.
bigdaddydill no hate but I live in England and he looks like your average Brit
The only hypebeast who knows how to dress actually!!
Hell no Blazendary is an annoying, cringy hypebeast who wears the exact same outfit every day. He wears hype gear so people know he has money. Leo wears clothes for himself.
always rated this kid anyone who hates on him is jealous
Well their is abit to be jealous of
Murdo.McK I mean the kid isn’t super rich. He explained how he just sold one supreme piece to get where he is now lmao. You can do it
Why would you be jealous he wears supreme and stuff like that how can you even live wearing things like that get yourself some pretty green napapijri and stuff like that
Jealous of what? He’s wearing clothes .. and got famous for it? Hypebeast are lame.. I just clicked it because I was wondering if he was a artist of some sort I’d never heard of.
notA vlog how can a nerdy kid like you who does filthy frank impressions call anyone lame lolol
Two years ago I thought he was mad arrogant. Last year I started having mad respect for him. He’s achieved so much, no matter what ppl say. He’s fucking 15 yrs old and has achieved so much more than people my age and I’m 22... love and peace from Germany.
Yung Salem und was hat er genau erreicht?
i thought he's rich af
Nerosh he isn’t rich not born into money as such goes to a public school parents don’t own huge house he gained money through resell
Fernando Beckham not really true
Sam Richards it is true because after secondary you have to go into an apprenticeship or sixth form
Fernando Beckham school isn’t that mandatory
Well when ur 16 it isn’t
I read somewhere dude spends 10k a month on clothes
Pro Habits wack
Pro Habits yeah but how much does he make off those? shits an investment
ATLASVISUALS he probably sponsored by supreme, palace , PATTA etc kid is making big moves
he takes a picture in the latest supreme drop. thats 4 or 5 copping things a month. I doubt he spends 2k each week. Plus he doesnt keep alot of his stuff
lmao no, but if you flip it but take a photo before you do, it will seem like you own a lot more than you actually do
*What's in the hat?*
ahhahahahahaahahha
two pickles
That hat
A rat
For Mosque bro !
loved it! he's pretty humble and I think he deserved it and can be proud as well
He's very beautiful to me, I don't know
I thought that I was the only one😂
Katrina I
Sure you do you
more hair on his head n it would be better
Yeah right?! At the moment I have a big crush on him aaaaah
Always wondered how he had everything, interesting story, good video Hypebeast
OH. MY. GOSH.
I HAVE SERIOUSLY BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS KID FOR YEARS. I used to be subscribed when I was like 14/15 and his videos were so good but after a few months his channel was gone. He came back like a year later, only uploaded like 3 things and again, GONE. I couldn't remember his name for the longest, only "Leo". And now, randomly, he's on my recommended and is a hype beast slash on his way to real world success??!! I recognized him instantly from the thumbnail! Wow, what a journey.
This is what it looks like when kids have supportive parents and other adults in their life that are interested in preparing them for an exciting and successful life. So sweet.
marseaumarseau he went to my school and it’s crazy to think that he came from a little place called Warwickshire - he is living a crazy life now and everyone couldn’t be more proud of him
Do one on Sashadidn'twakeup
Frozen Snowman Beats Yuup
Yes!!
Yeaaahhh
th-cam.com/video/zVzr9yhgPlo/w-d-xo.html
YES
Come back to watch this all the time and super proud of him that he kept going and never stopped
Resourceful at 15. He's hustling whether anyone likes it or not. Bravo.
Bro this is four years old but your perspective is refreshing my dude. Keep grinding!
Gully Guy is the king of street wear!
He dresses like he robs mannequins though. Very easy nothing crazy about his style at all just very well dressed kid that’s all l see.
because he shouldn't work one time he got rich parents so if u can buy everything then u also be the king...
Eymen Cons his parents don’t buy him clothes. If you’d have watched properly, he resells and buys new clothes for the money he gets.
Eymen Cons You're an idiot. His parents haven't bought him his shit. He got his first Supreme shirt from them and that's it
Is he pictures aren’t anything special either
He’s only 15. You got to love that. Much love and respect to him. 🙏🏼
Wait he's only 15
Yea wtf dude,i assumed he waz like 23 or smthng
Tyler Klein he’s in year 11 so yeah
I was very surprised, i thought he was older, like 20 or something
Nah UK folk are mature
Tyler Klein I was expecting 16 or 17
At 15! props to him man, imma get there one day.
He’s beautiful and I fancy him
"Cause if your so passionate about something your gonna make it" facts
**who would think a single red rectangle could be this expensive and have people worshiping it. lol**
this guy just scored a new fan. so young and so humble. The stuff about not wasting time is so true as well. bright future ahead.
Crazy what you can achive for going to every Supreme drop back in the day buying a tracksuit and then take a picture flip it and repeat
Love that he actually cares about fashion. Not just about the hype
sclapione jealous much?
He should do a Peaky Blinders fit
Never been this inspired by a personality. Your energy is so influential. Thanks bro
He's so pretty
I don't know why TH-cam recommended me this video now but I won't complain such a nice smart and humble guy
he is fifteen and being a model, i'm fifteen and laying in my bed
Damn this dude is on his own wave, I love his style and just his views on everything! Respect
Have negative comments been restricted on this video or something?
I luv his personality he genuinely seems like a nice bloke
Woah i remember watching dude on TH-cam years ago didnt realise he'd got popular
ever so proud of Leo! this explains a lot and i hope people now understand why he does this, you have come a long way bro❤️
Yo someone tell me why he always wears a hat
ross mcdowall yuck
he look ugly af with it off lmaoo & he’s already made it a signature piece in every outfit
He has his own style so deal with it
white girl, his hair is gonna be all crusty though like - it’ll be mouldy and shit
He has a genetic illness that makes him have no haie
this dude is gonna be the next big thing in the fashion industry.
He lives 3 steps away from mine x
Seriously? Please Help Me Get In Contact With Him For Fashion Reasons
Crooklyn Reactions 823 he has Instagram.
This kid got famous for matching clothes together. absolutely roasted through Facebook pages in his early days, kid somehow kept going through all of that props
This kid is probably richer than his teachers
Gotta respect the kid for doing his thing, too many people let their jealousy turn into hate on this guy but fair play to him.
do sashadidntwakeup
hope so
This actually really inspired me. With young hypebeasts you tend to assume that they're privileged and have rich parents, but after seeing this i'm really impressed by Leo's ability to make something out of nothing for himself.
Mans room is as small as my closet.
that's y ure broke
Gabe probably earns more than you tho
@@joedavidson9988 ok?xd
he is actually doing what supreme wants a supreme consumer to do style it to your own way and create art through fabric
y'all see the Utorrent icon on his computer
Royalty Beats so?
You do realise its legal to have U Torrent on your PC? Do you know what the U Torrent programme was originally developed for? Not pirating music or movies believe it or not.Being in the position he is he might actually be using it for its original intended use
The original purpose is to be able to share big files. Emails can only hold so much information. Torrents can be made using programs like u torrent and transmission and be downloaded through the programme from your computer to someone else computer.
Royalty Beats everyone has that one time in their life
He’s probably using utorrent for Vanilla World of Warcraft 🤷🏻♂️ who knows?!
You know what we used to hate on this guy in the Basement when he was coming up a couple years back but I've gotta give props to Leo, this guy's doing his thing and it's taken him places and will continue to do so, you man need to stop hating on creative expression you're driving down the UK rn
Gully guy leo is the best
What do you mean?
No one can hate on him, hes just doing his thing while radiating positivity which is with all due respect very nice
Man like Gully
Mad respects to this kid never knew how young he actually was
Instead of gullyguyleo he should be called gullymandella sounds even better!
This guy is actually so chill
Like he’s got amazing fashion sense like.
yung xanax ahah
I've been a fan of you for quite a while and watching this was quite inspiring keep it up Leo
He’s hot tho like
Your ugly like
I'm working towards being a street model because he encourages people to do their thing n love what they do because if you love what you do, success can come to you easily
THANKS LEO
Does he explain where he gets his beanies from?
Shardar Ahmed Stone island
I knew this video was gonna be good when that intro lined up with his fits
i'm from warwick too yay
Keep up the good work bro
fashion isnt about taste and how you put together a great outfit.. its now about how much brandname you have on now.. evreryone looks alike
Yun Bhristopher that's not true someone can look better in thrifted clothes than high end designer, it's how pieces are styled together is what matters
Yeah it is but half of y'all dont put a great outfit together then get surprised when someone like Gully puts a outfit together than blows up, Half of yall niggas dont know shit about fashion y'all just got into it because of Skepta, Asap Mob, Ian Connor and etc. Y'all havent been in this faSHION scene since the tumblr days
Delir you honestly going to act like most everyone who buys supreme isn't doing it for status symbol? Bitch please, y'all some fuckin sheep not even realizing why you want to buy name brand....it's all conditioning and you think it's from organic thoughts LOL
Boo hoo
MrKiingpin yes but that guy that dresses well cost-efficiently will never have more "style" than someone with a pair of yeezys or some gucci logo. OP meant that the definition of style has changed, now its only about how much you can flex
Great 👍🏻 work coming up ! Someone I’ll be lucky to work with such talent
I’m ngl I’ve never heard of this kid
hate him or love him, you have to admit he is killing it
I actually fw leo
this guy genuine af
when he started dancing, it was over for me loooool but still cool
It was a visual metaphor for not taking life to seriously. Thats his whole vibe. Cant you see his fashion is a way of expressing himself. Open your eyes and your mind. Its easy to judge but harder to understand.
I'm glad that Gully came to visit Korea!
The reasons why I fell in love with the short beanie 💥
Big up the basement
What he said about haters is 100% true so he is lucky to have figured that out at such a young age. When u are an adult nobody is going to give af if u do shit that's different if it's something you are passionate about.
He actually dresses pretty nice he’s not a hypebeast (or he might be but it works)
Thought he was a bit of a showoff and stuff at first but this showed me he is actually a genuine good kid
Love the guy
Shout outs GULLYGUYLEO I ain't never heard of this kid til like 2 weeks ago but I can say I'm happy for him!
i thought i was white. dude is pasty af
For U.K. standards he is considered rich even if his room is size of my closet. He owns an Apple PC which is like luxury for U.K.'s consumers. It's comparable to Russians owning an air conditioner in 1970s which was sign of wealth in CCCP.
etamlous if you think having an Apple Mac makes you rich then you must be really poor.
etamlous You getting robbed for buying Apple pcs underpowered and overpriced
etamlous u are completely wrong and are deceiving people im from the uk and iam black african my bedroom is 2x bigger then his
I could get a Mac easily from my parents
But he paid for his himself
He is lower middle class
What are even people talking about? He said that this dude is really pale skinned
I’m so fucking proud of Leo
What’s under his hat?!?
edit: a year later and leo has let his luscious orange locks be free
virgil abloom hair
Penis
Gonna start calling him Double D.
virgil abloom it’s called ginger hair
his hairline probably trashed
I love his positive attitude towards life and humbleness
Omg. He es fifteen
Thought Ron Weasley was boutta pull up to the window with the whip for a second
In North America we don’t have uniforms
Lil Water uh, yeah, a lot of schools do.
In Canada most catholic schools do
respect to his hustle, hope he goes far
How do you get so famous from wearing clothes.... oh my 😂😂
You used to be my brothers friend and I didn’t know you where famous until my friend told me, you are really inspirational X
15??
Y'all gotta stop hating, he resells, he takes photos in certain stuff then resells it, he also keeps certain items, the resell market is booming and he makes money from it. Gotta respect the hustle
