Mascara Sagrada

The famous Mayan mask, representing all aspects of the never-ending cycle of life and death, served as an inspiration for this elaborate Mascara Sagrada graphic. Mexican Mob transformed the whole thing into a holy trinity of Mexican skulls : an aztec and mayan inspired version in the middle, followed by a classic, but contemporary Mexican Sugar Skull and finally framed by a magnificent oldschool skull. This design with its stunning print details is certainly one of the most progressive depictions of Mexican skulls ever seen, and is, understandably enough, meanwhile a true Mexican Mob classic.

Mexican Mob T-shirts are made of high quality cotton, which has been produced in the most ecologically correct manner possible. The shirts are outstanding for their high wash resistance and long lasting shape stability. The manufacturing has been made under the umbrella of the Fair Wear Foundation, which stands up for good working conditions and fair wages in the textile industry. But it’s Mexican Mob in Berlin, who is responsible for the final finishing, where a technique called Discharge printing is used to etch the stylish prints in the fabric. With the Discharge process, dark textiles are destained in a complex procedure, during which the cotton returns to its natural colour. The result is a barely tactile print, leading to a super pleasant wearing comfort. This – and the superb printing details – is the reason why Mexican Mob has been able to made a name for itself throughout Europe.
