Cafecitos de Spokane
(4 items)Something’s brewing in the Inland Northwest. The Spokane Indians Baseball Team are excited to join Minor League Baseball's "Copa de la Diversión™" or "Fun Cup™" for the first time during the 2024 season with a brand-new identity – the ‘Cafecitos de Spokane’.
While “cafecito” translates literally to “little coffee,” it can also be used to describe the shared conversation over coffee between friends, or “coffee talk.” Cafecitos de Spokane not only celebrates the connection of robust coffee scenes in the Inland Northwest and Latin America, but also brings together an unlikely combo of two Spokane community pillars – coffee and baseball.
The primary logo for the Cafecitos, developed by the team’s branding partner Brandiose, is a grinning coffee cup adorned with a Panama-style hat, representative of the drink’s popularity in Latin America and the Inland Northwest. The uniform also features nods to the diverse cultures of Latin America with its vibrant colors and guayabera-inspired details. (A guayabera is a traditional piece of formal menswear with a deep connection to Mexican, Latin American, and Caribbean cultures).
A portion of each sale of Cafecitos merchandise will be donated to Unión Fútbol Club, a local youth soccer organization that provides free development opportunities in the Spokane Hispanic community.
