Checking in with our favorite people living their best Gaucho - Buenos Aires life. This week: @andy_dominguezv

If you think of success not as a destination, but a journey, then Andy Dominguez is having quite the ride. The flyweight boxer turned pro just last summer – and despite this nerve-jangling debut taking place in a COVID-emptied arena, the 23-year-old’s supremely confident disposition pegged him as a star in the making.

ANDY DOMINGUEZ APPEARS IN VOGUE KOREA’S JUNE ISSUE, FEATURING SOO JOO PARK.
PHOTOGRAPHER: DAVID ALEXANDER FLINN; STYLIST: DANIEL GAINES; PRODUCTION & CREATIVE DIRECTION: SOO JOO PARK.
ALSO FEATURING FELLOW BOXERS OKSANA ORLOVA, RO MALABANAN, AND UGO PETER-OBIAGWU.

Born in Mexico, he grew up in the Bronx, where he got into fights in and out of school.  "Other kids would pick on me for being small and I would have no choice but to defend myself," he says.  His mom, fed up with being called into school to collect him, duly took him to a boxing gym near home – "and that’s where it all started," he says.  Inspired by the likes of Oscar de la Hoya, whom Andy met as a 17-year-old, he rose quickly to amateur stardom, winning the New York Golden Gloves tournament a casual three times, and fighting both in Madison Square Garden and on international TV.  "I never thought I would’ve made it this far," he says.  "Boxing saved me."

PRE-FIGHT, ANDY DOMINGUEZ SPORTS THIS BESPOKE GAUCHO - BUENOS AIRES KIT, WEARING IT WELL

Since then, Gaucho - Buenos Aires is helping keep Andy’s pro dreams alive. Following a chance meeting at the storied Mendez Gym in New York, GBA founder Scott Mathis saw so much potential in Andy, he secured him as a brand ambassador and offered to sponsor him outright. So, as well as seeing Andy wearing GBA in his downtime (he’s a fan of "all the sweatsuits" and loves our perfect-every-time fit), you’ll also spot him in the ring sporting a custom kit that only a boxer can carry off with swagger. 

GEARING UP IN GAUCHO'S JAQUARD TRACKSUIT BEFORE THE FIGHT, ANDY DOMINGUEZ FOR GAUCHO - BUENOS AIRES

Asked what motivates him the most – fame? Money? Power? – he replies that his biggest wish is to become a world champion, "so that I can give back to those that have helped me, and have a platform to help and inspire other people." 

Nothing sums up the gaucho ethos more than this brand of humble, quiet power; it’s what truly fuels success, and Andy has gallons ready to burn.

"I love my black Gorriti pullover hoodie. Great for a Sunday around the city or my out-of-town commute, I can wear it anywhere.  But I also want the Alsina zip hoodie in cream, it's perfect to wear under a leather bomber jacket."
