NEW YORK, NY - Espolòn Tequila has partnered with premier streetwear marketplace, Stadium Goods, and globally recognized Mexican artist, Saner, to drop a limited-edition line of apparel in celebration of Día de los Muertos or Day of the Dead.

Dubbed the “Calavera Collection,” the fashion line includes custom-made wearable pieces that pay homage to popular Mexican symbols including calaveras – or candy skulls – and marigolds, with each design inspired by one of Espolòn’s four award-winning tequilas.
The line was created to honor the Mexican tradition of Día de los Muertos or Day of the Dead, a holiday in which the souls of deceased relatives are honored through stories, food, drink and celebration.

“Dias de los Muertos is a holiday with such rich tradition, and I really wanted the artwork for this collection to bring a piece of Mexico to the US,” said world-renowned artist, Saner.
“The four designs mix together prehispanic art techniques and feature traditional Mexican symbolism for a streetwear collection that celebrates culture with a modern edge.”

“The spirit of collaboration has always been a core value of Stadium Goods, from our apparel to the vibe we create in our retail stores, and partnering with Saner and Espolòn is a beautiful extension of that,” says Matthew Gomes, Stadium Goods senior director of retail.

“We’re honored to have Saner use our pieces as his literal canvas, and delighted to have Espolòn co-host such a unique way of sharing it with the world.”
