Welcome to Retro Grappler, where bold color and nostalgia collide with technique and discipline on the mats. This is a space built for those who live on the mats, thrive under pressure, and bring their grappling style into every session.
Everything created by Uncle Retro is driven by a passion for creativity and an unwavering desire to challenge the status quo. Whether you’re flowing with your partner, preparing for competition, or just embracing the grappling lifestyle, Retro Grappler brings a different kind of energy that is, playful, gritty and full of character.
Inspired by vintage arcade culture, comic books, and classic tattoo styles, we bring an old-school vibe into the modern training world. Every piece you’ll find here carries that energy, made for those who show up ready to roll with style and intensity.
Retro Grappler isn’t just about what you wear; it’s about your freedom to move, how you train, and how you express yourself. From training sessions to rest days, this is about bringing your full self to the experience and never blending in with the crowd.
We also make space for future grapplers. With creative tools like our martial arts alphabet books, it brings families and young ones into the world of movement with fun, visual learning made for curious minds and active bodies.
Our community is everything. Retro Grappler supports athletes, offers ways to stay connected through our affiliate crew, and gives you the chance to create something custom that reflects who you are. We keep things real with reliable and direct support, fast shipping, and extra swag that gives back to our loyal grapplers.
Retro Grappler is a mindset for those who train hard, laugh loud, and bring heart into every roll. If that’s you, then you’re in the right place. Step into the Retro Grappler world, where art, motion and passion collide.
