  • The History of the Charro Suit

    3 JUN 2024 · The charro suit is made of long tight pants that are decorated on both sides. The coat is on the shorter side and embroidered. The outfit wouldn't be complete without the wide brimmed Sombrero and a silk tie. This outfit is the same for women, only it is a skirt.  This style of suit can be traced to the Salamanca region of Spain. When the Spanish colonized Mexico, they brought this style of clothing with them. The Spanish made it illegal for indigenous people to ride horses without a Spanish landowner’s permission. When the Spanish did give an indigenous person permission to ride, they were forced to wear clothing that set them apart from the Spanish. These horsemen and their outfits became known as Charros.
