Description: This design features 5 Boricua "Vejigante" Masks in our Puerto Rican flag colors, in honor of festivals and traditional parties such as "Fiestas de la Calle San Sebastian" or "Sanse". People dress up as "Vejigantes" during carnivals as a tradition from our African, Caribbean and Spanish roots. They represent mischievous devils, throwing water from their cow bladder bottles/bags called "vejigas" just for fun. These costumes are made by artisans in our island and always as colorful as our culture. Because, as Boricuas, we love to wear our colors, you have the freedom to choose your tops and hats colors or styles, as well as explore the variety of matching accessories available for you!
