Special Santos Laguna Día de Muertos Kit Font Revealed
, by Phan Tich Giay
Liga MX side Santos Laguna paid homage to the traditional Mexican holiday Día de Muertos with a special commemorative kit font, worn on their 26-27 Charly home shirts during their league encounter against Club Necaxa.
Rather than launching a completely separate fourth kit, the club decorated their signature green-and-white hooped jerseys with bespoke typography on the back. The custom numbers feature intricate folk-art motifs closely tied to the Day of the Dead, including decorative sugar skulls (calaveras), cempasúchil flowers, delicate birds, and traditional patterned borders colored in matching shades of dark and light green.
The special edition numbering follows a growing trend in Liga MX of clubs celebrating the cultural holiday through customized matchday typography. While Santos Laguna previously debuted full Día de Muertos-themed kits alongside Charly in 2020, this year's subtle yet detailed tribute added a festive touch to their standard home strip.
