Cruz Azul Unveil Special 'Día de Muertos' Kit Font
Cruz Azul have revealed a special-edition kit font and numbering to celebrate Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead). The commemorative design has been created ahead of their Liga MX Apertura match against León, paying tribute to one of Mexico's most iconic traditions.
Applied in white on their blue Pirma 26-27 home kit, the typography incorporates intricate cultural symbols. Key elements include a colorful calavera (sugar skull) adorned in red and blue with cross motifs inside the eye sockets referencing the club's emblem, alongside a lit candle and scattered orange cempasúchil (marigold) petals.
The special numbers are being offered to fans as custom heat-press prints available at Tienda La Noria and at the club's stadium store on matchday. Cruz Azul follow fellow Liga MX side Pumas, who also unveiled festive Día de Muertos back printing for the same round of matches.
