About

Contrabando is a brand dedicated to sparking curiosity about the natural world by weaving together culture, community, and scientific exploration. 

Rooted in Latino & Indigenous perspectives, it challenges cultural erasure through nature-focused clothing and products, encouraging our community to connect with their heritage and environment. 

The name draws inspiration from culturally significant plants and fungi banned in the U.S., reclaiming them as symbols of resilience.

Beyond products, Contrabando fosters community through events, collaborations, and education, ensuring cultural legacies endure while reshaping dominant narratives.
