Drop 01 — No-Gi Kit

Status: ARRIVED — IN QUALITY CONTROL — SHIPPING NOW

Drop 01 is here. The full run landed with us, and every rashguard and pair of shorts is going through hand inspection — stitching, print, sizing. Nothing ships that we would not wear ourselves.

Orders begin shipping tomorrow. Yours goes out the moment it clears inspection, and you get tracking the day it leaves.

Where things stand

1. Inspection — happening now. Every piece checked by hand.

2. Packing. Every Drop 01 order is sorted by name and size. Boxes are being built as gear clears QC.

3. Shipping — starts tomorrow. Orders go out immediately, not the following week. You get tracking the day yours leaves.

If you ordered in Drop 01, you do not need to do anything. Your tracking email is coming.

Questions about your specific order — email joe@tj73combatco.com with your order number.

Drop 02 — In design

Status: COMING

Drop 02 is in design now. New artwork, not a rerun of Drop 01.

The FOUNDERS 73 patch was Drop 01 only. It does not come back. That was the deal and we are keeping it.

Drop 02 opens after Drop 01 is delivered. We do not run a second preorder while the first one is still in production — you should have the gear you paid for before we ask you for anything else.

The Founding 73

TJ73 has 73 founders. Ever. Not per year. Not per drop. Seventy-three people, total, for the life of this company.

As of August 10, 2026, a founder number requires the purchase of a full no-gi kit. Tee-only and single-item orders no longer earn a number.

Because the kit is between drops, no new founder numbers are available right now. The remaining spots open again when Drop 02 goes live.

Numbers already claimed are permanent. They carry a lifetime discount and first access to every drop that follows.

Available now — both tees

Two shirts stay live between drops. Both are made to order, both ship on their own schedule, and neither is part of the Drop 01 batch — ordering one does not slow your kit down.

Combat Company Tee — Retro Edition. Black, Charcoal, Army. XS through 5XL. From $32.99.

Combat Company Tee — Retro Sunset. Black, Charcoal, Army. S through 5XL. From $32.99.

Neither tee earns a founder number. That takes a full no-gi kit.
