The Arturo
Description
The textile is meticulously handwoven using a tradition Guatemala backstrap loom. This is then fastened onto premium vegetable tanned leather that is hand-tied using a fine leather lace around the border of the belt. All of our belts only wear better over time as the natural fit forms to all waist sizes for both men and women.
Behind the Name:
Arturo, rooted in Spanish origin and known in ancient tales as the individual who is as strong as a bear. It is said that the Arturo was the one most noble and courageous, leading with dignity and without fear.Lifetime Guarantee
