Tell us a bit about your background with martial arts
Ground Game (GG) was created by two friends who are BJJ fans and practitioners, Krzysiek (myself) and Kamil. We've been training and competing for over 10 years. We are both brown belts.
With the online BJJ/MMA marketplace becoming increasingly saturated, what made you want to start Ground Game?
We started GG back in 2010 when there were just a few brands in Europe. It was a time when there was no access to great quality products for a reasonable price. The other factor was the designs, we just didn't see anything that we really liked. When we decided to start with GG we knew we wanted to make great designs with great quality.

What do you feel makesĀ Ground Game different from every other BJJ brand out there right now?
We have over 8 years of experience in the business. There are not many things that can surprise us now š But the main reason why we do this is because we simply love to train and be part of the whole community and when we can add our quality and design into the mix it's something that makes us unique.

Which Gi are you most excited about launching and why?
We're going to launch a limited edition GI this Fall and it's going to be epic! It's a 350 GSM pearl weave with rash guard lining inside. Just wait when we reveal the project as I'm sure it will sweep you off of your feet š

What is Ground Game all about and what does it represent?
We believe that martial arts is a sport for intelligent and funny people. We're looking for that particle in every athlete. We want to show through our designs that's it's not only about tough guys and aggressive postures. Martial arts is about being humble, supportive and playful, hence our slogan – Let's Play! We also believe in customers which we prefer to call our mat buddies. We are a part of the community, we have great relations with many academies and we treat our customers as fellow grapplers not just people who buy our stuff.
