Metamorphosis. This shop has grown right alongside me, over…read morethe past 40 years. It was Raiders back when my mother was a kid ,and for us it has always been the Totem Pole, or the Totem Shop. My daughter calls it the Toto. Kids race to this spot for tiny classic toys, like rubber balls, silly putty, cap guns, toy dolls or ponies, and children's jewelry. They used to sell loads of candy, but have minimized that selection to focus on things like M-22 t-shirts, and North Face jackets. The Sun Bum sunscreen is some of the only you'll find in town, but it smells divine- lightly like a coconut/banana. The swimsuit selection is ample- this year I packed our family of four to come up here but somehow my own bikinis did not make it up. I was quickly able to choose 2 bikinis by Reef, with my size (M) in stock. Joy! In and out in ten minutes. The store also deals in Murdick's Fudge, which is a must-taste by all tourists (I swear by Rocky Road or Maple Nut). Did your sunglasses fly off the boat? They have Panama Jacks for sixteen bucks, polarized. A great spot to buy necessary outdoorsy replacements. Change is difficult, but the new owners have retained the playful spirit of the store while upgrading the merchandise!

(See pic!) I love their Michigan Roots logo with the tree root design- a little different and classier look than the typical "shark free" thing happening right now I thought this store had the best "up north" souvenir(s) gifts that someone would actually use/wear. There are also other lovely things in the store that are not necessarily branded. Example, I really loved the rainbow tote made out of sweatshirt material and should've bought it! But I just realized there's a website on the receipt so maybe it's still mine!

I had been looking for a unique upscaled bag made from men's suits, and I fell in love when I saw Baabaazuzu's creation! Not only was it what I was looking for, it is crafted beautifully. Wonderful seems, lined in satin, enough pockets to store my treasures and lots of double takes at this gorgous piece of art! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

What a great selection of Michigan made, eco-friendly clothing. As a recent transplant to the…read moreTraverse City area I had fun exploring the Leelanau Peninsula while looking for Baabaazuzu. My smart phone wasn't being so smart--hence my GPS failed me, but thankfully I called Baabaazuzu and their staff was super friendly with giving me easy directions to their awesome storefront. Once I got to the official Baabaazuzu factory I was overwhelmed by how many beautiful products they create. I've purchased their famous mittens downstate for many gifts (and myself), but had no idea how expansive their green and as they say ; "upcycled" line truly is. After making my purchase, I was lucky to get a cool tour around the facility. I got to see their huge wool piles, beautiful button collection PLUS designers in action!!! :) I felt like I was on a grownup field trip. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone in the Traverse City area; only 30 minutes away from this interactive shopping experience.

Everything in here was so cute, the quality of all the goods was very high, it felt very Michigan and of Traverse City without being a copycat of anything else. It is fully itself. Everything in here was something that I would wanna wear at any point in my life. We got so many stickers and souvenirs for our friends and family because we loved it. It's the best souvenir store in all of Traverse City. And the cherry on top was Nick. Nick was the most personable and amazing store clerk we have ever met. He was happy to hear our stories, share his own, and give us his feedback. Nick should have a raise. We love Nick. Everything about this store was made better by the fact that Nick was working here- and it was already a great store. 100% recommend, everyone who visits Traverse City should visit this store and Nick should get a raise. Thank you!

The service is top notch and they are excited to discuss each product and who makes it and designs it and where it comes from. If everyone was as passionate about what they sell and what they stand for as these people are, there would be Peace on Earth. Every community needs a place like this... a place that stands for more than just T-shirts and slogans... a place that believes we can all do our part to make where we are a better place.
