In celebration of its partnership with ComplexCon, Espolòn Tequila is unveiling an exclusive three-part capsule collection that merges the worlds of tequila and streetwear through bold creativity and craftsmanship, celebrating Latino Trailblazers in music and design. The “Calavera Collection: Los Mavericks Edition” is headlined by a custom-designed sneaker and brings together renowned sneaker customizer Dexter the Creator and Puerto Rican urban-alt rapper Álvaro Díaz to craft a pair of sneakers that pay tribute to Mexican heritage and modern sneaker culture.
Inspired by Dexter’s great-grandfather, a master shoemaker from Mexico, the sneakers blend old-world artistry with contemporary flair, much like the craftsmanship behind Espolòn Tequila.
The design features unique details like Espolòn’s signature rooster logo, vibrant pink stripes, and a nod to Mexican iconography through black python fabric and custom insoles. Just as Espolòn’s Maestro Tequilero Cirilo Oropeza revolutionized tequila-making with his unconventional methods, Dexter is leaving his own mark on sneaker culture with these game-changing kicks.
Alongside the sneakers, a limited-edition merch capsule collection featuring a hoodie and T-shirt, designed by Dexter and Díaz, celebrates the fusion of modern Mexico and traditional craftsmanship. Available for purchase at ComplexCon before it drops online via Espolòn’s merch store, this capsule embodies Espolòn’s rebellious spirit, pushing boundaries with every stitch, stripe, and sip. It’s a celebration of craftsmanship, heritage, and innovation—a true collision of tequila and streetwear artistry.
