Stretch Armstrong

Stretch Armstrong is full of corn syrup. Kenner released him in 1976: a blond wrestler in black trunks whose latex skin and gel filling let you pull his arms to roughly four times their length before he slowly crept back into shape.

Every child eventually tested the limit, and a punctured Stretch leaked sticky syrup everywhere — which is the detail most people remember about him.

Shop officially licensed Stretch Armstrong t-shirts featuring the badge and the Vitruvian Stretch artwork. Plus sizes run up to 5XL on the core colours - black, navy, charcoal, white, red and athletic grey. The more unusual the colourway, the shallower the size run the vendor stocks.
