Our Story
Does any of this sound familiar?
- “I want to wear something unique that tells a story, but everything I find is the same.”
- “I want to stand out, but I’m tired of wearing the same boring accessories everyone else wears.”
- “I want to invest in something meaningful, but I don’t know where to find it.”
If so, you’ve come to the right place.
We’re Jack and Turner, founders of Antigua Threads, and we’re here to help you do more than just dress well—we’re here to help you wear something extraordinary.
After spending years admiring the craftsmanship and culture in Antigua, Guatemala, we learned what it takes to create something truly special. Our belts aren’t just accessories; they’re handcrafted pieces of art, woven using a 3,000-year-old Mayan technique passed down through generations.
Imagine:
- Wearing a belt that not only looks incredible but has a story behind it, one that others can’t help but ask about
- Having people stop you on the street to tell you how unique and interesting your belt is
- Owning a piece that not only elevates your wardrobe but also empowers skilled artisans and preserves ancient traditions
We’re here to help you stand out. When you wear an Antigua Threads belt, you’re not just accessorizing—you’re making a statement. You’re investing in a piece that combines culture, history, and style. And when you feel good about what you wear, everything around you changes—whether it’s your confidence, your relationships, or your career.
Are you ready to make it happen?

Check out what some of our customers are saying:
"I ordered my first Antigua Threads belt and couldn't be happier. Awesome quality, and the authentic Guatemalan design looks great. I was lucky enough to get it same-day in Austin and wore it out to dinner on the spot. I look forward to rocking it on a daily basis. I am super excited to have a new go-to belt that looks unique, tells an amazing story, and supports an even better cause!"

"I love my Antigua Threads belt! I get more compliments on it than I can count. The colors are vibrant yet have a relaxed and vintage feel. It also feels great that my belt purchase is giving back to the people of Guatemala!"
Jacob, Washington, DC
"Just what the doctor ordered. I bought this belt a few weeks ago and haven't taken it off since. The leather is great and super soft in your hands. Quality is perfect. I accidentally ordered a size too small and they couldn't have been more helpful exchanging for a bigger belt."
Attison, Austin, TX
"I love my new belt. The multi-color pattern makes it go with everything. I got a ton of love while courtside at the Hornets game. The belt is lightweight, elegant, and the perfect accessory for summer. Not only was the belt delivered in a timely manner, but the customer service was top-tier once I asked about sizing. It is safe to say I will be a recurring customer!"
