Poor quality of items. Super cheap rings. Not even sterling silver and severely overpriced. Would do wonders to improve into things that last. read more

Pangaea Trading Company - I paid over $70 for some rings here. They assured me they were sterling silver. Needless to say I won't be back. - Women's Clothing Near Me - Cincinnati, Ohio

Pangea is one of my favorite stores in Cincinnati. It has such a cute collection of jewelry, shoes, clothing, and gifts for the new age hippy inside anyone! It is located on Ludlow right in the center of Clifton's super cute gaslight district. Their clothing is very hippy in style. Lots of flowing skirts, peasant tops, and sarongs. They also supply the cheap china flats that have become very popular lately. I used to wear them for musicals in school. They also have lots of reasonably priced jewelry such as necklaces, earings, rings, nose rings, and tongue rings. The rest of the store is filled with lots of various gift and bath and body items. You can find perfumes, soaps, scarves, hats, and wall decorations. Pangea is locally owned and has two locations, this one in Cincinnati and another in Yellow Springs, Ohio. read more

Great selection of women's clothing and accessories. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable about their stock and store policies. Jane H's review about their policy is true, but my wife asked BEFORE she purchased her items and the clerk clearly stated that only store credits were issued. So, don't buy something unless you love it or plan on shopping for a replacement. The jewelry selection is nice and diverse. I think one would have no problem finding something for oneself or as a gift. I do not believe they have anything for guys. That's fine. My wife loves browsing and usually finds one or two things to buy. The prices might be a little higher as the store tends to sell the non-gmo/fair trade/organic etc etc kind of items. So you are helping support small businesses around the world. Good for you and good for Pangea and Toko Baru. read more

I'm not going to lie - I avoided Pangaea Trading Company for the entire past 9 months of living in Clifton because I figured it was some kind of hemp-loving bare-footed hippie shop; so, I have nobody to blame but myself for not experiencing the greatness of this shop sooner! I had a Groupon to redeem at Pangaea and for the 12309128th time in my time living in Clifton, I was on Ludlow walking past the shop as I was running errands. Well, I stopped in after being enticed at the handful of people inside... and I'm so glad I did! Pangaea Trading Company is a quaint clothing and accessory store, most of the items being Bohemian in style. There are flowy tunic shirts, leggins, sun dresses, trousers, hats, skirts, shoes, jewelry, and everything in between. I bought a cotton dress, a light tunic, a handmade brass ring, and a long-sleeved shirt made of 100% organic cotton. For some, the prices may seem a bit steep (because they are) but I'm fine with this for many reasons. Firstly, the fact that there are a variety of items but few of each, reminds me of high-end boutiques found in larger cities. Secondly, because Pangaea is locally-owned, you know where your money is going. Thirdly, the odds of seeing someone in the same outfit as you is very rare when you purchase your items from a small shop such as this! The employees in the store are very kind and were keeping the place in order and tending to everyone there. The shop is intimate without being cramped, and everything is laid out and organized very well. I may not shop here for little things like tank tops or flip flops, but if I'm in the need of a nice summer dress or accessories, I'll look no further! read more

Alexandra did a great job explaining all about the Pangaea Trading Company, but I'd like to add a bit about the store made up of mostly women's clothing, jewelry, and accessories. I will say that although I didn't think of it at the time, I think the "hippy" comments are pretty accurate, especially if you taken into account the other Pangaea location in Yellow Springs. Pangaea's items seemed to be well-priced and relatively inexpensive, at least according to the female friend I was with, although I did see their hats priced as low as $12 but as high as 40 bucks. In addition to the already mentioned jewelry, skirts, sarongs, and China flats, Pangaea also has many handbags, tank tops, and sundresses, while I also saw sunglasses, bracelets, and Keen and Dansko footwear. They even have a "Life is Good" t-shirt section. I also noticed a sale of up to 70-percent off of fall and winter styles, although that may have just been a sign left over from the spring. While I won't be buying anything for myself at this store, I do think that the Pangaea Trading Company is good store and a good fit being right down the road from a university. Like many of the Ludlow Avenue shops, however, finding a parking spot may be the toughest thing. read more

I'm a dude and I find this store charming. I have women in my life. A wife and two daughters. These is the type of place they like to shop...or get gifts from. They won't buy something and see it on someone else. Plus, they get the hippie-dippie vibe that can only come from shopping on Ludlow Avenue. Some say the prices are high but I've not noticed that. Then again, I don't know prices for women's clothing much at all. A unique shop for something for yourself or someone in your life. read more

This is place is downright trendy/cool/hip/bohemian. Its the perfect place for the modern hippie to build a wardrobe. It is also a quite a pricey little boutique (which is why I am only giving it an A-OK). I went in looking for a pretty dress for my birthday party. They're stocked to the gills with pretty dresses all carrying a $35 or higher price tag. Pangaea has bags, shoes, and accessories; all cute and a little closer to my budget. They're also into earth friendly with some brands focused on carbon footprint. The cashier was really helpful and pleasant (I had another bag with me which she stowed at the counter while I tried on dresses). Then at the counter she asked me all kinds of questions about my birthday plans and my boyfriend (the gift buyer of the said birthday party dress). She was very sweet. I don't go in much because the prices are a bit out of my range. But I window shop more than I'd like. read more

Bad return policy! My granddaughter specifically asked when purchasing what the return policy was, and informed 30 days. Based on that assumption one would think as most stores you would get refund if returned by 30 days....not Pangaea! We returned today and informed after the sales clerk who called the manager that you only get in store credit. Sales clerk informs us the manager was the person we asked on their return policy, and now the manager denies ever talking to us! A professional manager or sales clerk when asked "what is your return policy, the response should have been 30 days in store credit, past 30 no refund". Pangaea you just lost a great new customer who shops a lot - who wants to do business with a manager who lies and has a horrible return policy much different that most stores. Good luck, karma is bad! read more

Great place to shop, especially for jewelry/gifts. They have a unique clothing selection too, but that's on the pricy side. I imagine it would be great to go during a sale! read more

Very nice selection of unique and reasonably priced items. Only reason this is not a 4 or 5-Star review is customer service. Cashier said she couldn't give 2 different gift receipts on 2 items because this was one purchase. I think she either was too lazy or didn't know how to, either way not an excuse. I was in too much of a hurry to argue, but that's bad customer service. I shouldn't have to argue about basic stuff. read more

Pangaea is sandwiched between Graeter's and Sitwells on Ludlow avenue. While you take time to browse the trendiest fashions you can also enjoy a cold milkshake or hot coffee. That's usually what I end up doing atleast. Over the years, Pangaea has dramatically improved their inventory for the fashionable college aged female. In-stock you will find the sexiest and most comfortable honey due undergarments in addition to casual everyday wear and elegant evening dresses. They have an attractive footwear collection as well! One of the most appealing aspects of this clothing store are the reasonable prices and occasional bargains. Pangaea carries a lot of the same labels that chain stores like Urban Outfitters and Anthropologie carry; for example, Tulle and Free People. Check them out for a fun boutique experience! read more

Such a cute little boutique. I've already spent way too much money in there. They have a really diverse selection, great jewelry, and awesome shoes. Every time I go in, I see something I like. Their pricing is really reasonable; not much in the store is over $50, and the girls working behind the counter are always friendly and helpful. I can't walk down Ludlow without at least some quick window-shopping. read more

This place is super cute! They have stuff I can never find anywhere else at reasonable prices. The staff is always nice and helpful. Pangea, Kismet, and Toko Baru are all great places to shop, especially for gifts. read more

I love it here. Over the years that I've been going to this store, I've collected some of my ALL TIME favorite pieces. The staff is always super friendly, and their selection changes just enough to keep it interesting. Highly recommend!! read more

Great place to stop in to find unique boutique dresses and jewelry. They have all the new 'trendy' things. The dresses are really pretty and overall it's the ultimate 'girly' store. The prices are pretty good for a boutique. Great location for an afternoon of shopping at the other boutiques nearby, stop in to the Esquire, or Stillwell's for coffee, tons of Indian restaurants on this street too. read more

I love this place. I live in Gaslight, so it's super convenient. They pack so much stuff into the tiny store without it feeling cramped. My BF has purchased a moonstone ring and necklace from here and they are beautiful-I get compliments all the time. They also have very reasonable prices on earrings-my daughter is constantly losing her earrings, so I love that you can by earrings by the pair or individually and they are very reasonable! The first time I went in, I was shocked at how sweet the girl working the register was. I told her I was looking for a bracelet or ring to give my daughter who was a "fidgeter" due to her ADHD, and she helped me find the perfect bracelet, all while being very chatty and kind. She even boxed up the gift nicely. My daughter was so excited. read more

Love the items they sell!!! Love it! Atmosphere is wonderful except for the new stuffy help that worked the day I went in. I got the same vibe as I did at Toko Baru (unhelpful rude!!) However I had a great experience at Toko Kidz. And I will shop Pangaea again as they have items I can't find anywhere else. Hope she gets better- friendlier sales people. read more

I've been to both locations, the one in Yellow Springs and the one in Cincinnati, but have done much more shopping at the Ludlow one. For a boutique, it can be surprisingly affordable! I find the Yellow Springs one is much more hippie, boho styles and the one in Cinci has some more sophisticated fashions and accessories. If you go into the clearance in the back, the prices are totally reasonable, cheap even! And it's not a wimpy clearance either, good selection. They have super cute hats, also. Only small complaint is that they carry some brands like Volcom, things you could just go buy at the mall. read more

fabulous options with an amazing staff who is always more than happy to help you style an outfit. There are also always some amazing little displays put together and I usually end up buying the whole ensemble because it's so well styled! My favorite store in the city read more

I tried to return something at Pangaea and Toko Baru, the sister store, in Clifton and was informed they only offer store credit for ALL returns, regardless of whether the item is full price, on sale, worn, tag on or off, whether you have the receipt, ect. The items I wanted to return were both full price, un worn, with the tags, and I had the receipts. In Pangaea, the employee pointed to a small curvy-font sign that spelled out their policy of "no returns within 30 days of purchase of unworn items with tags on...." although saying no refund within 30 days of purchase is pointless since you don't get a refund after 30 days either. IMO its a big burden to put on the average consumer to search for signs of an unordinary return policy (or any other store policy that a consumer might not expect) before making a purchase. I find it unfair that just because I didn't try on a sweater before I purchased it, I'm punished by being locked in to a purchase at their store. read more

I'm normally one to support small local businesses but after my recent experience at this store I don't think I'll be shopping here any time soon. I live a walking distance away and it's right by the UC shuttle stop so I normally go in to check out their shop every week since they seem to change their inventory a lot and since their store is so close to me. These past two weeks I've been stopping by more frequently because I had a formal coming up so I wanted to see what their dress/shoe selections were like, but I noticed that whenever I'd walk in the person behind the counter would be eyeing me down like a hawk. I didn't think anything of it at first, but it happened every single time I went in. So yesterday I finally went back into the store and bought a pair of earrings, and that's when they told me "we're aware that you have a history of stealing from our store. We're not going to get the cops involved but if it happens again you'll be persecuted" and all of that. I was completely taken aback by this assumption. I have NEVER stolen anything in my life. I love to shop locally and any time I've gone into that store I've either walked away empty handed or paid for everything I wanted to get. I asked them why they thought this, what their evidence was, and told them that they were mistaken, and all they could come up with was "we saw you rip the tag off a bra one day when we were busy and know you walked out with it." When they said that to me I had to get defensive. I asked when they thought this happened and if they had video footage of this incident, because I honestly have never done anything of the sort. Not to mention, their bras are a cluttered mess in the back of the shop and I remember a few times when I would want to try a particular one on that I'd have to mess around with the tags to untangle them just so I WOULDN'T RIP THEM OFF ACCIDENTALLY when trying to pull out the one I wanted to try. They were rude and completely unprofessional regarding this entire situation and were completely set on their incorrect assumption that I had stolen from them.Not to mention, they never once confronted me about this until yesterday. Instead they let me receive these judgmental looks week after week until I finally found something I wanted to buy. They obviously don't care enough about what they sell there since nobody stopped me walking out if they thought that I had anything. Completely unbelievable and unprofessional. read more
