Where does your shirt come from? These hand woven shirts are sourced directly by us from the shores of Lake Atitlan, Guatemala. We have been working loyally with our tailor Pedro for over 15 years. His small workshop is happy one that produces traditional indigenous weaves in modern styles of the highest quality.
Highest quality handwoven and sewn long sleeved shirt in several beautiful colours and available in 5 sizes. The round neck collar has a 19cm opening, lined with coconut husk buttons, also sewn into the strongly made cuffs. Handy pocket on the left breast. We source these in the Guatemalan highlands, they are bought from our tailor whose small family business we have supported for over 20 years. We buy from them just once a year, so these shirts are not available elsewhere, and indeed are quite limited: since Covid, it is becoming more difficult to source the woven fabric, as many of the weavers were forced to find other work at that time and lots of them never returned to the trade. These are a beautiful handmade garment that will last and look great for many years.
