Aldo Farías Stands by ‘Chaca’ Critique of América’s New Jersey as Fans Remain Divided

During the July 15 episode of TUDN’s Cuadro A podcast, Farías called the Club América 2025-2026 jersey “chaquita” and “chaca,” criticizing its typography and design. Co-host Andrés Vaca appeared visibly uncomfortable and pressed Farías to clarify what made the kit “chaca.” Reactions among fans split between those praising the nostalgic nod to the 1994 design and others decrying its sponsor layout and “grotesque” lettering. Farías linked the style to marginalized urban subcultures by naming reggaeton figures like El Bogueto, Malilla and Yeri Mua as its likely wearers. With no apology or retraction, debates continue across social media and sports outlets over the influence of media commentary on football fashion and social identity.
