Bordères-sur-l'Échez emblem has the " Cabilat ", a kind of catfish that lived in Echez. Until a few years it was the emblem of the village rugby team.
In the traditions, there are the " Conscripts ". It is the youth of the village between 18 and 20 years preparing the village festival. Before, this allowed them during the serenade aboard a float decorated by them (two weeks before the village festival, they were around the village with all the people and in exchange for candy, small plastic flowers or cigarettes, villagers gave their room ) to collect money so they could leave for military service with a small nest egg. Today the money is used for all expenses. Similarly for Easter, there was " the paschal lamb." Always the same conscripts bought a lamb to a village farmer, were going to bless the Mass and then in a decorated chariot passed among inhabitants of the village center, which in return gave them eggs. In the evening they met, ate lamb and made an omelet. Unfortunately today it has been lost.
