Luche Libre is a Mexican wrestling style characterized by the colorful masks the participants wear. The first Lucha Libre mask was worn as a gimmick in order to excite the audience and develop an alternate persona for the wrestler. Since then, the sport has become defined by the characters and colors the wrestlers’ masks exhibit.
We couldn’t help but include some colorful Lucha Libre masks in our boys graphic tees.
Please share with us in the comments below: what color would your Lucha Libre mask be?
