Since 2005 Balkan Tango have been preparing accessories from second hand materials. Committed to protecting nature they decided to move towards exclusively environmentally conscious design. Following this decision they started to design fashion accessories from any trash they found fit for bags. They started the line with second hand vinyl LP-s, then they fell in love with used tarpaulin, which was followed by punctured bicycle inner tubes. Finally they made their line of style from inner tubes: simple & practical with a Balkan Tango touch.
Every product of BT is 100% fair-made in Europe, cut and sewn one by one, partly in a Budapest based workshop and a small factory in West-Hungary.
In 2009 they also opened a little shop in the heart of Budapest's center, as a co-opertation with another Hungarian designer - Aquanauta. While BT is developing a retailer network abroad, they always find time to have local actions connected to recycling or bikers' community.
Anyone wearing Balkan Tango's accessories help to protect nature and raises others' environmental awareness.
