Product "Japan Monster" Hoody
The Product "Japan Monster" Hoody available Only at The Brooklyn Circus
To all the dudes who think that Nigo and his A Bathing Ape did it first, read on. I applaud the Product crew for making a piece the "Japan Monster" Hoody that pays more homage to The Lucha Libre. (read below)
MEXICO - The land of the wrestling mask. Lucha Libre consists mostly of colorful masked men, a pervasive tradition based on the popularity of such stars as EL SANTO and BLUE DEMON in the 1950's. The mask is not only a costume tradition, it is also a major dramatic device - mask vs. mask matches are the height of lucha rivalries, and wrestlers unmasked usually go through major attitude and career changes (Cien Caras was a popular masked man, the unmasked Caras has since become one of Mexicos foremost villains).
Disclaimer: Bevon pictured below is by no means a wrestler. He does wrestle with his inner demonds, but nothing more. You can speak to him when he approaches you at The Brooklyn Circus, he is harmless. Only harmful to himself, observe him and you'll see.

It's a good thing it doesn't come in white with red lettering.
Its got nothing to do with mexican wrestlers.
The style of the mask indicates its influence by KISS face paint...note the PDCT written in KISS font.
