Story

I Stegyawden, a Tsimshian Indian name meaning ‘painted goat,’ is a mountain on the Skeena River near Hazelton, British Columbia. The mighty Skeena itself is known to its first travellers, the Tsimshian Indians, as K’sian, meaning ‘juice from the clouds’.

Many stories and legends are told of Stegyawden and K’sian. One in particular refers to the legendary village of Temleham, located at the base of Stegyawden on the banks of K’sian. Its people were so powerful and influential, and the surroundings were so majestic, spiritual, and beautiful that the village of Temleham became known to all Indian Nations as a significant and proper place to meet. Chiefs from all West Coast Indian Nations would travel many perilous miles to congregate at Temleham.

Tlingit, Haida, Tsimshian, Bella Coola, Kwakiult, and Nuu Cha Nulth - all would attend. Many elaborate and impressive feasts were held. Friendships and alliances developed, and differences were settled.

Temleham was appropriate. It was the location the ancients had chosen and created to serve as a place of peace for all nations.

In the swirling mists of the mighty K’sian, one can, even today, sense the presence of those wise chiefs. Their spirit and wisdom live on, and their beautiful West Coast of Canada remains a majestic and spiritual meeting place, a proper setting for A Meeting of Chiefs.

Color is awesome but material isn’t.
Size: 34W x 32L, Color: Blue, Size: 34W x 32L, Color: Blue
The color is pretty much as advertised. I wear a 33 so I order up a size and they were both too long and too big. Instead of returning them I washed them and put them in the dryer. The length after washing turned out perfect but the waist is still a little too big. It should also be noted that the quality of the material isn’t the best. After washing them this is how the pockets will look. You have to iron them each time to get them flat again. I would buy again because of the variety of colors but only at a cheaper price.

I’m happy with the jeans
Size: 40, Color: Pink
I am very satisfied with this purchase. A lot of compliments too. They fit well, stretch to the material but the skinny fit look. The quality so far is great.
