Cholo (Spanish pronunciation:) is a loosely defined Spanish term that has had various meanings. Its origin is a somewhat derogatory term for people of mixed-blood heritage in the Spanish Empire in Latin America and its successor states as part of castas , the informal ranking of society by heritage.
A cholo might also stereotypically own a lowrider. Another staple of cholo fashion is long hair tied into braids as depicted by actor Danny Trejo. The cholo/a subculture has spread to cities in the United States with large Chicano or Latino populations, including New York City.
