Hecho en Bakersfield Sugar Skull Tee – 2026 Día de los Muertos Edition

$35.00

Size Guide

Somewhere between local pride, surf-shop daydreams, and Bakersfield mythmaking, this one showed up.

The 2026 Día de los Muertos / Hecho en Bakersfield Sugar Skull Tee blends classic sugar skull imagery with Kern River Surf Co attitude. On the front pocket area, the design features a clean sugar skull with KRSCo sunset eyes and Kern River Surf Co arched above it. On the back, the artwork goes bigger with Hecho en Bakersfield wrapped around the skull for a bold statement that keeps the hometown message loud and clear.

This design leans into the spirit of remembrance, celebration, color, and identity—while still staying true to the slightly sideways, Central Valley surf-and-lore energy that defines Kern River Surf Co. The skull is decorated with floral elements and sunset eyes that tie it back to the KRSCo look, making it feel equally at home at a fall gathering, a local event, or just out and about repping Bakersfield in your own way.

It’s a shirt for locals, former locals, Bakersfield loyalists, and anybody who understands that “Hecho en Bakersfield” is less a label and more a condition.
