Bandera de México

/de PE-los/

Excellent, top-notch, first-rate quality in Mexico. When something is 'de pelos,' it's performing at its absolute best — the food was perfect, the person looked amazing, the event went flawlessly. A solid, enthusiastic compliment with no irony attached.

Example

"The food was excellent."

"He looked great today — really put-together."
