Lowriders and Loyalty
In the heart of San Diego’s Mexican community, the culture of lowriding and Padres fandom come together in a vibrant display of passion and pride. These dedicated Padres fans express their love for the team not only through their jerseys and memorabilia but through the art of lowriding.
For these fans, their customized cars are rolling canvases, proudly displaying their heritage, creativity, and unwavering support for the team. Each lowrider reflects a unique story, where family, culture, and fandom are intertwined, often passed down through generations like a sacred tradition. As they cruise through the streets, their cars serve as both artistic statements and moving tributes, blending the rich history of lowrider culture with the pride of being lifelong Padres fans.
This photo series captures the intersection of sport, culture, and identity, showing how deeply the Padres are woven into the fabric of the Mexican community in San Diego.
