Tecun is named after Tecún Umán, the last ruler of the K’iche’ Maya and a symbol of courage, leadership, and ancestral strength. Often depicted with quetzal feathers and guided by his quetzal bird spirit, Tecun represents honor, resilience, and a deep connection to the natural and spiritual world.

The belt’s palette of white, brown, turquoise, yellow, and burgundy brings that story to life. Earthy tones ground the design in tradition, while turquoise and yellow echo the quetzal’s feathers - symbols of freedom, vitality, and spiritual guidance. The crisp white base creates balance, allowing each color to stand out in harmony.

Handwoven on a traditional Guatemalan backstrap loom and paired with premium vegetable-tanned leather, each Tecun belt is one of a kind. Designed to soften and shape to your waist over time, it’s made for everyday wear and lasting stories.
