Vato Loco

 
 

 

 
 
 


Meet the Vato Loco. "El mas firme de los firmes" (finest of the fine). The "vato mas suave de aquellos" (cooler than the coolest). Este hombre es "a toda madre" (all that and more). Vato Loco dresses in the clothes of the Pachuco. The Zuit Suiter from times gone by. His estilo (style) is that of the Lowrider from the forties. Yes my dear non-Chicano Homie fans...lowriding goes back that far among La Raza. There were homies lowriding back then in cities like Los Angeles, San Jose, and Stockton in California, El Paso and San Antonio in Texas, and even Espanola in New Mexico. This is where the culture of Lowriding was born. And those that gave it birth...looked like the Homie you see before you..El Vato Loco.
