The Heart Behind Mudgie Wear
In 2016, I lost the most important person in my life—my mother, Saundra “Mudgie” Bennett. Her passing left a void I didn’t know how to fill. Grief consumed me. I went from 210 pounds to 125, confined to my bedroom, battling depression and barely living.
But through dreams, prayer, and deep reflection, I came to understand her message:
“It’s not your time. Keep going. Keep living.”
I always told my mom we’d travel the world together. Now, through Mudgie Wear, she can. This brand is my way of honoring her legacy—sharing her love, strength, and spirit with the world through art and fashion.

Where We Come From
Mudgie was born and raised in Baltimore, MD. So was I. When I was 11, we moved to Jacksonville, FL—two cities that shaped our lives, our values, and our creativity. My big brother Michael, also born in Baltimore, spent time with us in Jacksonville. I graduated high school in 1996, college in 1999, and not long after, we were blessed with our little brother Jordan.
Our logo proudly honors both Baltimore and Jacksonville, where Mudgie Wear was truly born.
