The '''Border Bros.'''<ref>"''Well said, little Border Bro! Anyway, we'll be nice and let you practice first. Sound good?''" - Border Jump explanation, ''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''</ref> are the [[Hammer Bro]]s. that guard the [[Stardust Fields|Beanbean Borderlands]] in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]''. In order to pass into the Beanbean territory, [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] must complete their game of [[Border Jump]], which is basically [[jump]]ing across a rope.

The player must avoid hitting the rope three times with either character or he or she must restart the challenge. After beating them, Mario and Luigi have the option to come back and challenge them again, but the game is harder every time the brothers beat it. Replaying Border Jump earns them more [[Bean|Hee Bean]]s.

One of them wears a red flag atop his helmet while the other wears a blue one; although the Border Bros.' names are unknown, it is confirmed that the one clad in the blue-flagged helmet is the younger of them. Also, the Border Bros. seem to have known Mario and Luigi from somewhere before their encounter at the Beanbean Borderlands.

*During the Border Bros.' first tutorial of Border Jump, if Mario jumps when they command Luigi to jump, a Border Bro will tell Mario to "give the 'Jumpman' thing a rest". This is one of the many contemporary ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' references to "Jumpman", Mario's original name used in the Japanese version of ''[[Donkey Kong (game)|Donkey Kong]]''.

*The Border Brothers, along with the [[Hammerhead Bros.]], and the [[Starshade Brothers]] are some of the very few characters from the [[Beanbean Kingdom]] that actually know Luigi's name. Most others just call him "Green Mario Guy" or something similar.
