I visited during the colder months and was impressed by how much well-chosen winter gear they had--cozy layers, warm accessories, and practical pieces that still look stylish. I ended up leaving with a warm winter hat!

Wow, hard to believe no one has reviewed Howl yet…read more We visited Bayfield over Labor Day, staying at a B&B down the road. Before leaving Minneapolis, we booked a half-day yacht cruise for Saturday morning, which turned out to be lovely. The reason I mention the cruise is that our captain also owns Howl (as well as the Howl Adventure Center just south of town). We stopped into the retail store the following morning as we dodged raindrops, enjoying a chat with the captain and his family. I would characterize the clothing and equipment on the shelf here (as well as the Adventure Center) as "upper end" although insufficient to completely supply many an outdoor trek. That said, the equipment on sale was interesting, reasonably priced, not overly "touristy" (although there were some items geared to the visiting tourist). As an aging backpacker, it was very difficult to not pick up a few items, but I've vowed not to buy more "stuff" until I get my knees replaced! I did succumb to a few bicycling accessories at the Adventure Center, however! Howl Clothing is right downtown, just a block away from the docks and right across the street from the Bayfield Inn. It's worth stopping in to browse, and we will use their sailing services when next we visit during the summer.

My kids are very cute and were welcomed everywhere we went, except here. The guy got annoyed at my four year old daughter because she was playing hide and seek and made a rude comment about running not being allowed in the store. That doesn't even touch on the fact that the products are of awful quality and overpriced. If I didn't know better, I'd have thought I was in a Hollywood boulevard shop getting hustled. It's especially odd to see tons of MAGA branded merchandise when there doesn't seem to be a single item made in the USA. Get a grip and stop being hypocritical edge lords. I'll gladly pay extra for quality goods at another store in town instead of buying some garbage from there that will fall apart after a couple of uses and probably give me or my family lead poisoning.

In the store and on the receipt it says, "No refunds"…read more Their items are pretty spendy and sales rep wasn't sure at all about the prices of sale items, though she was pretty nice. Beware of their perfume oils. They are terribly misrepresented. The sample oil was a roll on, so I bought one and when I opened it at the hotel, I took off the cover and there was a flat top impossible to get off. It was supposed to be a roll on! Dissapointed, I got the flat top back on and the cover on. There was oil all over my hands. I put it back in its original box. I couldn't get a refund, so I put it back in my luggage. It got all over the box and other stuff in luggage. I live in St Paul and can't do much about it.
