Bottom Line: Fancy coastal clothing brands for the whole family…read more My husband and I went into Island Pursuit at his request because he's a big Vineyard Vines fan. While we never did see any Vineyard Vines clothing (not to say it isn't in there) we did see similar styles and immediately gravitated towards the bright and fun colors of some Southern Tide swim trunks. Aside from men's clothing, Island Pursuit also has styles for women and for kids. Everything seemed to be colorful and fun and in the theme of coastal, nautical and resort ware. Being familiar with many of the brands they carry, like Toad & Co and Tommy Bahama, I know they specialize in higher-end, quality styles.

Appalling experience based on a comment from the sales woman. My sweet FIVE year old daughter was…read morequietly and respectfully browsing the bracelets when the first sales woman commented she was cute. The second rude, disrespectful waste of breath said "she looks like me when I was little, I was fat too". I was speechless and just left the store. I will never return but wanted so badly say to her, you think you're pretty on the outside but you're dead on the inside to say something like that to a child. I'm SO glad we teach our kids to appreciate people for who they are, not what they are.

It's a nice spot to pop in and get a gift for a lady friend or maybe a little something for yourself. The store does skew female, so be aware that there isn't a ton for men. They do have some cool socks for men, but that's all I saw. My girlfriend ended up buying a ring and a dish towel that says "I love you to the fridge and back". This isn't a traditional souvenir store, so don't expect cheap Sarasota items if you're a tourist.

I've purchased shirts in the past for my kids, which were good quality and held up well in the wash. I have three kids ages 7, 4, and 1, so my youngest is in a stroller. The last few visits, we've been spoken to very rudely and followed very closely like we're going to do something bad. It's a very uncomfortable feeling, and I'd rather go to any other shop on the circle. It's also not just one individual it's happened with, but two (an older man and an older woman). We're locals and visit the circle regularly, but I have no desire to go into this store anymore. I feel it's necessary to add that I supervise my children in the stores, and I do not allow them to touch anything or be disrespectful to people or merchandise.

We are back in town and I went to go get a new one to replace the one that got ruined because it's my favorite sweatshirt. I walked up and an old man was cleaning the floors.

They have a website but it's very limited and doesn't have the sweatshirt I was looking to replace. Thanks for saving me the money.

The staff were absolutely great about searching for something new and different to try. It was the best swimsuit shopping experience EVER. I emerged with a new tankini that really flatters, in a style that I never would have tried on my own. My daughter bought a very nice tankini as well, on sale. The prices are boutique level, but they do have some sales (my suit was about $100, my daughter's about half that). A very happy holiday experience and I had a great new suit in which to feel more confident. Highly recommended.
