About Us
Why do the products cost more in the EU then in america?
This is because we (the EU shippers) pay an import fee to get it in the EU. It is something the costumer normaly has to do but we do it for you! And the products will be delivered faster! Next day delivery is what we go for! The product are in a depot in the Netherlands.
Its cheaper and its faster!
warfighterathletic is already a good brand in America and it is on its way to dominate the EU!
THE PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE
Our founder, Jordan “Fitzy” Fitzgerald, bootstrapped this company in 2018 whilst he was serving within New Zealand Special Operations as a Commando.
When we first started this company, we placed a large emphasis on designing and developing high performance training systems. This was because globally, far too many soldiers, sailors, airmen, and marines, were struggling to pass a basic fitness test. The culture needed to be changed, and quick.
This is where we brought to life the culture of the "Warrior Athlete", the WARRIOR, and the ATHLETE. An effective warrior cannot just focus on the combative, we must also be masters of the athletic if we are to be high performance individuals and effective team members on the battlefield, or in life in general.
What we learned is that many of our beliefs, philosophies and practices go well beyond the battle space, crossing over into everyday life. For the high-performance individual seeking the edge, much of what we preach applies to their respective fields. First-hand we have heard many stories of the impact that our "Warrior Athlete Culture & Mindset" has had on our customers lives and their success. These stories are the essence of why Warfighter Athletic was created in the first place.
In 2018 when the company was being put together, Jordan had a strong vision for what the company could be. Although we had very humble beginnings to say the least, he had a passion and a vision for high performance apparel. A vision to compete with the biggest brands in the world, and to win by using unique experiences, skill sets, and a global network of SOF operators he earned during his military career.
After 2 years of hard work, sacrifice, and lots of sleep deprivation, 2020 seen Jordan being able to run Warfighter Athletic full time. Hanging up his boots on his career as a Commando, the focus of 2020 was to "Improve & Upgrade" everything we do, this led to the beginning of a new chapter in the history of Warfighter Athletic, OPERATION TOA.
Starting out, our mission was to build high performance warrior athletes, OPERATION TOA, was the beginning of our mission to equip them.
After over a decade of military experience and a year of relentless design and ruthless testing, 2021 seen us bring to market our very first clothing system, the Commando Clothing System.
As well as developing high-performance physical training systems, we are now committed to designing, developing, and manufacturing high-performance apparel systems that help you to perform at your best, ensuring that you have the edge. Using our experiences of the past and innovating in the present, we will produce apparel for the future.
This is the beginning of a new chapter for Warfighter Athletic, you are an integral part of this story, for your loyalty, we say thank you.
The pursuit of excellence continues.

Background: 1ST Battalion Royal New Zealand Infantry Regiment - Afghanistan OEF - COMMANDO - Warfighter Athletic Founder
Passions: Physical Fitness, MMA, Outdoor Pursuits, Hunting, Moto X, Inspiring The Next Generation and Building Warfighter Athletic
My Why: "Pursue Excellence", this isn't an empty company moto, it is a lifestyle I have lived since stepping into the Special Operations brotherhood. Through Warfighter Athletic I want to build a culture that inspires our tribe to live this pursuit, to live a life that is worth living, to live a life that is fulfilling, and to seek out the potential that is trapped within.
I will design, develop, manufacture and provide the best Warrior Athlete Clothing System on the planet.
After years of military service, operating in adverse and unpredictable environments, I know that quality gear can be the difference between mission success or failure, and at the extreme end, life or death. The standard needs to be raised and I want Warfighter Athletic to be the ones who raise it.

Favorite Quote: 1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing 2 He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, 3 he refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. 4 Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. 6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Background: 1st Battalion Royal New Zealand Infantry Regiment - Reconnaissance Platoon - Hunter and Outdoorsman Since Birth - Hunting Guide and Conservationist
Passions: Come on? Obviously Hunting, Physical Fitness, Mountaineering ,Outdoor Expeditions, Living Off The Land and a 1940 Lee Enfield .303
My why: I believe being able to live and thrive in the outdoors is the most beneficial confidence booster that a human being can obtain. We are now in a digital age where people would rather worry about materialistic shit as apposed to going out an providing for friends and family with their own two hands. I believe with the help of Warfighter Athletic, we can get more hunters out into the great frontier.
Being an Endurance hunter not only means pushing your mind and body but also means being out in the bush all the time. So, for that I need reliable gear that isn’t going to fail me so its been a pleasure to have a say and test the gear for operation Toa… standby.

Background: 1st Battalion Royal New Zealand Infantry Regiment - Reconnaissance Platoon – NZ Army Physical Training Instructor (PTI) – International CrossFit Competitor – High Performance Coach – Owner of Mount CrossFit and Bay of Plenty Barbell
Passions: My Two Beautiful Dobies (Doberman), Physical Fitness, Coaching and Developing High Performance Athletes, Adventure Sports (rock climbing, mountain biking, snowboarding mainly), Sport Shooting.
My Why: Helping others become the best versions of themselves. I get no better satisfaction than seeing an athlete break through that plateau they have been struggling with, or qualifying for a prestigious competition that only few will achieve, or helping that soldier reach the fitness standards needed to advance in their chosen career.
Training and mindset is the key to a successful athlete or soldier, but the quality of their equipment holds a huge advantage. Warfighter Athletics quest for quality clothing will insure athletes and soldiers can perform to the best of their abilities in the most comfortable and battle ready clothing.
