About us

The story of MEXUSMAR began back in 2014. It started as a Facebook page where we shared funny and motivational content—a project born from a group of friends stationed in Okinawa.

We came together to reminisce about our Junior Marine Corps days, starting from our time in the DEP. Trying to make sense of our new way of life serving in the Corps, some of us still struggling with English, found humor in navigating situations in Spanish. Like in Boot Camp, the literal translations in our heads from English to Spanish were often hilarious. These moments were challenging to explain to others but left us laughing. Those memories stuck with us, and we decided to share them—funny, motivational, and sometimes sad—on our page.

As the page grew in popularity, we began connecting with service members from all branches who shared their stories with us. Over time, the demand for merchandise emerged. Initially hesitant, we embraced the idea and created an original brand with a purpose: blending Hispanic traditions, history, and culture with our Warrior heritage as Americans serving our great nation.

MEXUSMAR is more than a brand to us; it’s a community. Our platform aims to support Veterans, often receiving messages from Warriors simply looking for someone to talk to. We listen. Hearing that our content—be it humorous or motivational—helped someone through their day inspires us to continue. We take pride in promoting Veteran-owned businesses and Veteran musicians by showcasing their services, products, or music on our platform free of charge. Over the years, we’ve built countless meaningful connections with Veterans.

One of these partnerships is with Level Zero Heroes Hockey  (LZH) Hockey, led by Alex Martinez. Alex has been a true friend, mentor, and leader, inspiring us to persevere through ups and downs. We’re honored to say that MEXUSMAR Apparel is a proud sponsor and supporter of LZH Hockey, a Veteran hockey team based in Chicago. This team unites Veterans to play competitive hockey, serve their community, and have fun.

Beyond winning championships, LZH Hockey focuses on raising awareness and funds for the SameYou  Foundation and local initiatives like Toys for Tots. SameYou is a global leader advocating for equal access to brain injury recovery. This charity develops better mental health recovery treatments for survivors, raises awareness, and campaigns for improvements in rehabilitation services. Their mission is impressive and deeply honorable. You can support their work by visiting their website. Additionally, LZH Hockey gear is available in our online store, with all proceeds benefiting SameYou.

Thank you for visiting our store. We hope you’ve learned more about us and our vision. If you have any questions, feel free to email us at support@mexusmar.com—we’d love to hear from you.

God bless,
