Caligari Plush Identity
Origin of the name
Created in 2023the name mixes two concepts:
● Plush
Reference to the classic phrase from Escorpión Dorado: “¡Peluche, e!”.
It became a Montiel trademark and a symbol of the team’s humor.
● Caligari
A tribute to the universe of psychological horror, inspired by the classic 1920 film The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.
The combination generates the “horror + comedy” identity that is the soul of the club.
Colors: red, black and gold
Many people believe that Peluche Caligari uses red and black in reference to Flamengo or another red and black club.
But the team itself explains differently:
-
Red + black → represent strength, passion and power
-
Golden → symbolizes nobility, courage and the “demonic royalty” style of the shield’s horns
Uniforms
-
O first uniform (2024) it resembled that of Sport Recife: horizontal stripes in black and red and a gold collar.
It was the first shirt to sell out in the Kings League Mexico. -
Em 2025at the request of Alex and Gabriel, the club added more golden.
The idea was to create something inspired by Spain’s golden shirt (2008/09), but there were technical limitations – so the black and red remained strong on the front.
Alternative uniform
Uniform 2 is blue and yellow and was marked by the final of the Kings Cup Mexico.
