Print's Comeback: Women's Sports Mag Defies Digital
12 May
Summary
- Snatch magazine revives print in a booming women's sports era.
- It features diverse voices and celebrates women's sports culture.
- Launched in December 2025, it sold out its first run.
In a digital world, "Snatch" magazine is making a case for print, focusing on women's sports. Founded by Sophia Mitropoulos, the publication embraces an analog approach, offering a curated experience for readers. The magazine, named after a weightlifting move, was reborn from a previous zine and released its first professionally printed issue in December 2025.
The inaugural issue of "Snatch," which debuted in December 2025, quickly sold all 300 copies, recouping its initial $10,000 investment. The magazine features 36 contributors, offering a diverse range of content from personal essays to photo series, and caters to an audience seeking anti-algorithm experiences.
"Snatch" has become a platform for women and LGBTQ+ individuals who feel underrepresented in sports media. As of May 2026, Mitropoulos continues to grow the "Snatch" brand beyond the magazine, exploring new merchandise and aiming for broader retail distribution, while also planning future issues.
