This isn't your average denim! It's actually handcrafted and has a rich past as a traditional Mayan skirt from Guatemala. The hand-embroidery adds a pop of color, and it's skillfully made by artisans at Cuero Malec, with vegetable-tanned leather accents including a hand-braided leather strap. Inside, you'll find different type of handwoven fabric (jaspe), along with a handy slot pocket and zipper pocket. Great for everyday!

Handmade Vintage

This product is made with handmade, upcycled fabric. We believe the minor imperfections associated with vintage fabric are part of the charm and uniqueness of the item. We do our best to take photos that accurately represent the true colors and worn nature of the handwoven fabric, but colors vary across monitors, and photos can’t highlight all aspects of a product.
