Chipotle’s Costume Collection’s Origin Story
One of the great modern traditions of Halloween is social media users creating their own unique costume ideas, featuring the iconic Spirit Halloween costume bag. Two years ago, Chipotle hopped on the viral trend and posted a fictional “Chipotle Fork” bodysuit (see here). The brand followed up with a “Chipotle Napkin” costume concept (see here), resulting in over 700,000 fan engagements. Now, Chipotle and Spirit Halloween are teaming up to reawaken      these two memorable memes and bring them to life along with three entirely new looks for Halloween. The first official Chipotle costumes are sold individually and range in size from adult small to XL. Each bodysuit retails for $39.99 in the U.S. and Canada.

“Our popular Halloween tradition, Boorito, began with a burrito-themed costume contest and now we’re taking it to the next level with the launch of our first-ever costume collection in collaboration with Spirit Halloween,” said Chris Brandt, Chief Brand Officer at Chipotle. “In addition to these bodysuits, we will be treating fans to a scarily great offer next month.”

Starting September 6, the five-costume collection will be available exclusively on www.spirithalloween.com for customers in the U.S. and Canada and at select Spirit Halloween retail locations in Chicago, Denver, Egg Harbor Township, N.J., Los Angeles, and New York, while supplies last.

“We’re no strangers to memes at Spirit Halloween. Year after year, we are blown away by the passion and creativity we see from fans sharing their take on popular Spirit Halloween memes – and we’re beyond thrilled to be teaming up with Chipotle to bring some of those creations to life,” added Kym Sarkos, Executive Vice President at Spirit Halloween.

Fans’ Obsession with Chipotle’s Meme Products
This isn’t the first time Chipotle has turned online conversation into a real product. In August 2022, the brand introduced a limited-edition lemonade-scented soy candle designed to look like a Chipotle water cup. Some Chipotle fans have been known to “accidentally” fill their complimentary water cups with lemonade at the restaurant’s beverage stations. In response to many fan social posts on the topic, Chipotle has acknowledged these “accidents” in a series of tweets over the years (examples here, here, and here) and even published a description of the Chipotle water cup candle on X in December of 2019.
