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.

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.

So, I come to Glen Lake in October thinking that I'll spend a couple of weeks, shut the cottage…read moredown, and not see it again until Feb/Mar, right? Ahhh...how easily the most simple plans go awry. In this case, I couldn't tear myself away from off-season Glen Lake and then got trapped here by the weather - it's December and I'm still here, sans appropriate outdoor gear. I did not pack for winter - I packed for fall and now I'm paying for it. We're talking plastic bags over my sneakers just to go outside due to the snow and the pipes freezing in the washing machine after I'd loaded 75% of our clothes in with soap. I'll go ahead and answer that question that is running through your mind even as I type; yes, I AM a complete idiot. What to do? Head into the Sportsman Shop in Glen Arbor. Although quite small, they have a great selection of high quality mens and womens coats, sweaters, shirts, long underwear, socks, foot gear, etc. at very reasonable prices. I've purchased a lovely, well made and much needed pair of boots for myself, some jammies & pants for the fella and we're set to go until the roads are safe to head back to Chicago. Good variety of Woolrich, Columbia, etc. in clothing and sporting gear for fishing and hunting and they even offer chartered fishing trips. Look for significant discounts after Thanksgiving - there are bargains to be had. Very friendly and helpful staff (I went in not knowing the fellas pants size and the incredibly nice saleslady helped me find a pair that fit him perfectly) and open year round to save dumb asses like myself from their ill conceived follies - I highly recommend this incredibly useful store.

I've nicknamed this store my upscale souvenir clothing store because it sets itself apart from your typical souvenir clothing store. They only carry clothing btw. The quality is average to more upscale. J America is my favorite brand especially in sweatshirts at this store. They carry more embroidered Charlevoix clothing which I much prefer versus just the stamped decal cheap style. The prices are reasonable and the service has always been excellent. The only problem I had this recent visit was some of the t-shirts and sweatshirts I liked fit bad and came from a third world country which had strange cuts and very boxy styles. Hubby and I still found plenty of clothing to buy in the store regardless. Other than that I would give it 5 stars. They do carry clothing made in the USA and a few other countries which I don't mind as long as the fit is normal.
