FAQ
Please refer to this section for commonly asked questions:
1 Q: What happened to the LUCHA CLUB?
A: We loved the Lucha Club rewards program but as we transition to a new platform and online only model the app we were using for the earning and redeeming of points is unfortunately not available anymore.
1 Q: Can I visit Republic of Lucha?
A: We had a GREAT initial 3 year run but as of April 2024 we are an ONLINE ONLY retailer, there is no store to visit. We operate out of a print shop/studio in Pasadena and aim to service the entire world with the same quality we've had since 2021. HOPEFULLY at some point we can return to a physical store and event space but for the time being ROL is ONLINE ONLY.
3 Q: What is the difference between a "Professional" Mask and a "Semi-Professional"?
A: “PROFESSIONAL”: A mask personally commissioned by a Luchador to their personal “mascarero” (mask-maker) that meets 100% of their personal standards to be a match-worn mask. This is an actual match-quality mask individually hand-made by a mascarero for a specific Luchador and directly provided to Republic of Lucha by said luchador. Due to its hand-crafted origin and detail, each Professional mask is completely unique and the only one of its kind in the world.
“SEMI-PRO”: A mask almost identical to a Professional mask except it is made of slightly lighter materials as it is not made for the purpose of withstanding the extreme physicality of a Lucha Libre match. Individually hand-made and commissioned personally by a Luchador to their mascarero for the sole purpose of being sold as a collectible item. All “SEMI-PRO” masks at Republic of Lucha were provided directly The luchador.
4 Q: Do you ship internationally?
A: Yes, we ship to every country in the world. Due to customs and cost, we ship globally through USPS and their partners, so although it might take a little bit longer to arrive, you will not pay $65 for delivery of a t-shirt. PLEASE NOTE FOR INTERNATIONAL ORDERS your country might ask you to pay ADDITIONALLY for customs taxes before or upon delivery. We have no say in this, this varies by country so please be aware of tariffs added by your country of residence.
5 Q: Do you ship to Mexico?
A: Unfortunately no. The decision to not ship to Mexico is due to the fact that most Luchadores depend financially on local sales of their products so we do not want to take business away form them in Mexico, plus shipping from the US to Mexico is exorbitantly expensive, twice or three times what it costs to ship to Europe and with an extremely high rate of lost packages. In 2022 only 50% of our shipments to Mexico actually arrived, compared to 100% of our shipments to Europe, Japan, Canada and Australia reaching their destination without any problem.
6 Q: If I place an order, how long will it take to ship?
A: We manufacture the majority of our merchandise in-store, so we have set days for printing and set days for processing orders. Avg processing time can be 1-2 business days and shipping 2-4 days. Orders are not processed on weekends.
7 Q: I received an email saying my order had "shipped", but the tracking number shows my order has not moved.
A: The e-commerce platform we use marks an item as "shipped" when the shipping label has been created, even if it still has not been sent to the corresponding courier. Depending on the processing date it might still take 2-3 more days for your items to arrive to the courier.
8 Q: Is this REALLY Penta and Fenix's store?
A: 100%, ROL is not a "Lucha Bros" licensee, it is owned by them and every operating, merchandise and event decision comes through them.
9 Q: Are the t-shirts true to size?
A: All our t-shirts are printed using a process called "DTG" which requires the garment to be heat-pressed before and after printing. This might cause the fibers to compress a little bit, but this compression disappears after the first cold-wash of the garment. We use lightweight premium cotton, similar to a Bella Canvas or Next Level shirt.
10 Q: I read that Republic of Lucha does their own printing in-house, can you print a design for me or can I place an order for DTG printing?
A: Yes you can, please e-mail dtg@republicoflucha.com with info about what you'd like for us to print including sample design and quantity and we'll respond at our earliest availability with a quote.
11 Q: I want to reach out personally to Penta and Fenix.
A: Due to their extremely busy itineraries and privacy we do not take any personal requests for meetings, autographs or share their contact information. If you have a professional (verified press or booking) inquiry regarding them you may e-mail info@mayorarce.com with your inquiry.
12 Q: Can I get a COA for my item?
A: We do not advertise, offer or issue any COAs for any of our products.
13 Q: Hablan español en la tienda?
A: Claro que por supuesto que si.
