Thanks for the memories!

It is time for me to face the music and shut the doors of Knús Eco-friendly Tango Clothing. It has been an exciting journey and I thank you all, customers and interested parties, for sharing the experience and helping to make it a reality. Various factors have led me to make this decision - difficulty in getting consistent supplies in small quantities plus the high cost of shipping and traveling and local taxes made it not really economically feasible. I have learned a lot - about starting and running a business, about clothing design and fabrics, about the clothing industry and where it stands concerning environmental issues. I have traveled to many tango festivals and events and had a great deal of fun! So no regrets. And hopefully, I have managed to spread a little bit of enlightenment about our purchasing choices and creating a sustainable world.

 On to other projects!

 And remember...the rest of my stock is 50% off!

 ps...there is a chance that I will create a second line of Knús men's trousers in linen if there is enough interest. Please enquire if you'd like to receive updates about this.

Summer Sale!

Here it is June already, and you haven't heard a peep from me in the last few months. Yes, I admit I haven't been properly nurturing the Knús project lately...I've actually gone and gotten myself a day job - yay! But that leaves so little time and energy on the side. So...I thought why not stir up some activity here and have a sale! Really, it's a much better idea to have these awesome organic and eco-friendly items on your back enhancing your tango experience and not sitting here on a shelf in my spare bedroom doing nothing. So here it is, the first Knús eco-friendly tango sale! 30% off while supplies last! Also, I want to take this opportunity to thank the men for the especially great reception to the tango marathon trousers. They have been so popular, but the downside is that I have very few pieces left! This is in part because of the difficulty in obtaining the high-quality fabrics. It seems like every time I order a fabric that I really like, it runs out at the distrubutor or becomes discontinued by the manufacturer. Not sure what the future of this will be, but I do know that I don't want to compromise on quality and the original Knús vision. Stay tuned!
