THE STORY

BeerGut Tactical is more than just a small business — it’s a family mission born from grit, creativity, and pride. Founded by a Marine Corps Veteran, our shop is run by family, fueled by passion, and powered by the idea that great things come from hard work (and lots of caffeine).

We make everything in-house. From the first sketch to the final shipment. Every shirt, hoodie, decal, tumbler, and 3D-printed item starts as an idea in our heads and ends as a finished product made by our hands. We design it, print it, press it, and pack it . All right here. Nothing mass-produced, nothing outsourced. Just honest, handcrafted work made with purpose and pride.

Our style is a mix of American patriotism and anime culture — two worlds we love and want to bring together. Whether you’re a proud patriot, an anime fan, or just someone who loves bold, unique gear, you’ll find something that fits your vibe.

We also take on custom orders for small events, local schools, and businesses that want something personal and one-of-a-kind. From simple designs to complex ideas, we treat every order with care and attention to detail — no matter the size.

At BeerGut Tactical, we keep things laid-back, real, and personal. We’re not a corporate brand — we’re a family that believes in quality, creativity, and community. We joke, we hustle, and we take pride in what we do. So whether you’re repping your favorite anime character or showing off your patriotic pride — just know one thing:
No matter how petite or thicc, we got your six.

For as long as I can remember, I have always loved designing and creating things with my own hands. Growing up I would paint and draw on everything I could, just to make it different and unique. Drawing my own cartoon characters. Taking sharpies to my hotwheels to give it a new paint job. Painting my old cassette player to customize it….yea..I’m old. All through my school years, art was a huge part of my life. Any chance I had to get my hands on something and turn something plain into something amazing, I did. Immediately after high school, I joined the United States Marine Corps. While stationed with 2nd Amphibious Assault Battalion…YATYAS!.. I was lucky to be in a platoon with a great leader that I admired highly and had the same passion of art. That’s where I learned and fell in love with the art of tattooing. He taught me a lot about tattooing, and even spent time tattooing each other. I then spent most of my career being a good Marine and getting drunk and doing barracks tattoos whenever we weren’t running my fatass into the ground or drowning in diesel polluted lakes. After my...memorable..career, I decided to finish my contract and come back home. I continued to draw, paint, tattoo and customize everything I can. Till this day, where I currently work as a small engine mechanic. So when I’m not working, trying to lift heavy shit at the gym, or with family, I’m in a small room still slinging ink, paper, and now...shirts! Never once did I think I’d be doing something like this. Yet, here we are, and I am still excited to see where this leads.

Watching a lot of tacticool videos online, we would see all these “operators” with their technical overhand grips on their rifles and fancy transitions, were mostly sporting an athletic body type. After working at a gun store throughout the pandemic, I noticed a lot a guys (and gals) with beer guts, were buying and hoarding all the firearms and ammunition they could. I almost never saw a customer that didn’t have a big ol’ barrel under their shirt. And it hit me... these people needed a voice. I then explained my concern to Eddie and he agreed that we should do something. BeerGut Tactical was born! You no longer have to sit by while all the dudes with washboard abs take in all the glory of the tacticool lifestyle, because our specially designed threads will make an excellent cover for that natural body armor of yours!
