Pita Thread Belt

The hilo de pita belt is an emblematic piece of Mexican artisanal tradition, originating from the Altos de Jalisco region. Handmade with natural fiber extracted from the maguey plant, its technique known as "piteado" involves delicately embroidering unique designs such as flowers, geometric patterns, animals, or religious symbols onto leather. Traditionally worn by charros, this belt represents identity, pride, and cultural heritage. Today, each piece is a work of art that transcends borders, carrying the essence of Mexico to the world.
