Hats shoes and…read moresocks Jansons Clothing is a whole lot different than the usual touristy type of stores found in the center of Boothbay Harbor. It does carry some t-shirts and trinket type items but most of the inventory is centered around higher quality and practical clothing. The company has been around since 1902 and is perhaps most famous for it's wide selection of warm and quality sweaters. Definitely something people need to survive the winters up here. There are also heaps of shoes and boots, scarves, warm socks, hats, swimwear, sun glasses, watches and of course high quality long underwear. I even saw some life jackets in the store. Definitely a wide variety of different and very useful items. The prices here vary but tend to reflect the higher quality of the merchandise. Jansons isn't a good place to find trinkets and souvenirs but it is a great store to find quality clothing to keep your butt warm during the cold Maine winters.

Cool people doing very…read morecool things I actually found this place through the Historical Society of Boothbay Harbor. They were selling little patches that said Boothbay Harbor Historical Society for some cause or other but ran out of shirts. They told me to buy a shirt and bring the patch to this place to have them sew it on. It started to sound complicated but they said that the people at the Harbor Embroidery were really nice. So I ended up going there and they were extremely nice. They said come back in a hour and the work would be done. Well We came back and all the patches and shirts were united.. I'm not sure I'll ever have the opportunity to use their services again, but it was a pleasure dealing with them.

They go they extra mile to make sure the customization is just what you want, in designs, color choices, and even where to place the embroidery on the item. They are excellent for converting my ideas into reality and finding ways to create the graphics if necessary. The staff is super helpful. They are my go-to source for personalized apparel to give as gifts.

They had an amazing variety of gifts from Maine/Portland, and everything was fairly priced. I ended up buying 11 postcards for just $10.50 -- a steal compared to what I've seen at other gift shops when traveling around. The postcards were also beautiful and very high quality. I can't wait to come here again.

The wonderful owner invited my kid to pet her sweet little dog, chatted us up, recommended some good local things to do, and just generally made us feel like welcomed friends rather than out-of-towners dropping in for the holidays. 10/10 can't wait to go back here and shop some more for nieces and nephews and some vintage for myself the next time we are in the Portland area.

If you are a local or visiting and you only make time for one souvenir/gift shop make it this one…read more Everything they have are made by locals which is great place to support local makers/artists. They have a ton of variety including smaller less expensive items to larger paintings that may cost more. Staff have always been extremely friendly and will greet you with a smile and answer any questions you have. It will always be the store that helped me find one of my favorite local artists Flyn who have since opened their own retail space. Truly the perfect spot to grab yourself or family that item that will remind you of your time in Maine. You will find at least one item you want to purchase if not more. Also you can proudly say that you helped support a local artist/maker. 100% worth your time visiting! As a local I make a point to revisit this place frequently.

The Mangy Moose and I go way back - during my childhood trips to Maine we would frequently stop in…read moreFreeport for the day and visit this store during our shopping adventures. Since we were coming back down south from Wiscasset, we thought it would be a good idea to stop in Freeport and check out some of the shops. Mangy Moose was near the top of our list, so off we went. In essence, Mangy Moose is a gift shop that sells lots of souvenirs and other tchotchkes. You may be thinking that it's like every other souvenir shop in a touristy part of Maine - and I may agree with you to an extent. However, I like the fact that Mangy Moose is large and its selection is beyond what you would find elsewhere; I would argue that you would need to go to several stores to find what MM has under one roof. Clothing, jewelry, signs, books, housewares, holiday stuff, toys - it's all here. Also, the store is arranged nicely with lots of space to roam. Overall, if you're in Freeport I would definitely recommend stopping at Mangy Moose - it's a nice break from the typical outlets you find in the area and you may just leave with a little something.

The jewelry is unbelievable and I could have stayed all day going through the vast selection. I couldn't afford any of the jewelry but it was wonderful to look at and wish for.

I can't recommend Puttin' On the Glitz enough! Just go!

I cannot say enough about this shop. After reading the negative google reviews, I was blown away…read more I have been a repeat customer in this store for over 20 years now and through a change of ownership. I have never once had anything but a positive experience. The current owner is always willing to help, responsive, reasonable and professional. Yes the hats are expensive but it is a high end hat store and the hats are made by craftsman from around the world. If you want a mass produced hat that everyone has then I suggest Macy's or Target. To miss a visit to this store due to the google reviews would be a shame for the fashion lover looking for a quality piece. I also do not understand people not calling the owner to voice their complaints or concerns before becoming a keyboard warrior and falsely accusing an establishment abs trying to harm someone's livelihood based on one experience.
