Visiting the "Casco Viejo" at Bilbao, Spain, you'll find several stores selling traditional clothes and Basque emblems like the Lauburu or Basque Cross; the Ikurriņa flag; the abarketas or espadrilles. In small towns on market days you can see a lot of old and young people dressed in traditional clothes.
By the way, my name: Mirentxu is Basque and means "Little Mary"!!! and no...I don't speak Basque...just a few words like Agur! (Goodbye)
