We’re Lauren and Nicole: two women, busy moms from Oakdale and Sayville, who met at work, instantly clicked, and bonded over our love of hard work, grit, and finding purpose in the chaos.

Out of countless daily conversations, Island Grind was born—an apparel brand rooted in hustle, heart, and hometown pride.

What started as a friendship quickly grew into a mission: to create something that represents everyone out there grinding—parents, athletes, students, business owners, patriots, and everyday warriors.

Yes, it’s a clothing line—but it’s more than that. Island Grind is a movement. It’s about community, mindset, and culture. We’re building something Long Islanders can feel proud to wear—and rep—wherever the grind takes them.
