    HJM, in spain there's not a traditional way of clothing for the entire country. Every region has it's own traditional clothing, and they are quite different from each other.... I'm no expert in clothing, so I guess i'll let other spaniards answer you about that, but I guess that's quite expensive stuff (if you want a real one)

    if you want something typical of the south...buy an "abanico", i tried to use the babelfish but it says fan.... [​IMG]


    and if you want something more typical and expensive, buy a head of bull or a guitar :D

    Hand Dictionary says fan too :)

    Btw, typical clothing, and great quality you can get from here are boots. We have a great manufacture of boots, as well in the south as in my region (not far from Madrid). Pure leather of high quality (no jokes on S&M :)).

    Something like this

    And I always think of Sherco, Montesa and Gas-Gas motorcycles, but they may not be suitable gifts for the average person :D

    Raga!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

    One mantilla. Very Spanish and very stylish. But that thing usually brings consequences with itself... :)

    the biggest problem is its price. A good quality mantilla (not a shitty one), costs from 300 to 600 Euros. There are less quality ones, but imho, it's not worthy

    Maybe 'cause you spent your time to get to know people while they learnt their stuff about Spain.

    It's something like a veil, but lays in the back of the head, not covering the face. And sorry, my mistake, it isn't that expensive. I first thought in mantones, some sort of cape made in silk :)

    This is a mantilla
