Maleado Tattoo Crew

Maleado Tattoo Crew is a dedicated tattoo studio rooted in craft and community, offering clients a focused, professional experience in every session. The artists here work across styles that resonate deeply with Mexican tattoo culture — bold traditional work, richly detailed Chicano lettering and portraiture, and expressive blackwork with strong graphic sensibility. The shop carries a grounded, no-nonsense atmosphere where the artistry is allowed to speak for itself, and clients can expect thoughtful consultation and skilled execution from start to finish.

Xochimilco is one of Mexico City's most culturally layered boroughs — a place of ancient chinampas, vibrant street life, and deep Indigenous heritage. That richness shapes the people who walk through the door, many of them looking for tattoos that carry real meaning and visual weight. Getting tattooed here feels connected to something larger than trend — it's part of a living tradition in a neighborhood that has always known how to hold onto its identity.
