American Fighter Clothing and Founder Rich Franklin

Rich Franklin, the individual responsible for the American Fighter Clothing line, was born October 5, 1974 in Cincinnati, Ohio to parents, Richard Sr. and Vaila. He attended the University of Cincinnati and obtained a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics before completing his Master's degree in Education. After graduation, Franklin worked as a math teacher at Oak Hills High School in his home town.

Franklin and Jeff Adler, the President of American Fighter, started the Keep it in the Ring movement as a way to build character in young people and teach non-violence. The program offers after school sports, martial arts and life skills programs to students.  Rich Franklin has a big screen credit to his name; he appeared in the 2008 film, "Cyborg Soldier."

American Fighter Clothing for Men

  • A popular American Fighter clothing item for men is the black hoodie. This item features a front zipper and a small tribal logo on the front. A large skull logo is featured on the back of the garment. This item also has two inside pockets for storage.
  • The men's line also includes a cap decorated with a 3-D embroidered American Fighter logo. A caged background is screened onto the cap. "D for Damage" is embroidered onto the side of the cap as well.
  • The classic T-shirt for men offered from this line is black with red lettering. The rating of "D for Damage" is also included on the front of the garment.
  • Fans who want to wear the same style of shirt that Rich Franklin wore in his first UFC fight can buy one and wear it with pride. The shirt is offered in brown with pink lettering. Customers can also choose a tan shirt with a military green logo.
  • Another T-shirt style available from this line is a grey shirt with a black logo on the front. The back of the shirt features the words, "One Time at Fight Camp...." 
  • The American Fighter Constitution Tee is made from 100 cotton with 4 oz. ultra slick material. This shirt has a slimmer fit than a standard T-shirt.

American Fighter Clothing for Women

  • American Fighter's clothing line also includes a women's hoodie. This garment is offered in pink with the words "American Fighter" printed on the front as well as the back. It's a comfortable and   stylish choice in casual wear for ladies.
  • Women can also choose to buy the American Fighter "Hits Like a Girl" T-shirt. This top is made from 100 percent cotton sheer jersey. The style is form fitting and is made to fit more snugly than  a regular T-shirt.
  • Another choice in T-shirts for women offered in this clothing line is the soft cotton T-shirt. This garment is available in black and features a large winged Ace logo on the front, as well as a smaller one on the back. The Ace logo is a tribute to Franklin's nickname, which was given to him to reflect his resemblance to Ace Ventura actor Jim Carrey.
  • For those women who want to own a classic T-shirt, American Fighter offers a pink version with the American Fighter lettering on it. This top is made from heavy weight 100 percent cotton.

The American Fighter clothing line has a style all its own. It is for fans of mixed martial arts, as well as those who want stylish, highly wearable clothes that they put on when working out or spending time with friends. Not everyone who chooses these clothes can be a UFC Middleweight Champion like Rich Franklin, but they can at least look like one when they wear his clothes.
