Each month 4Ocean creates a new bracelet to showcase a particular ocean species which is in danger due to it's poluuted ecosystem.

I stopped in this store today and was not greeted at all. The sales girl was more concerned with her phone than anything else. I had every intention of spending money there but just felt very unwelcome. I will not be back.

Valerie S. was horrible! I can not believe the customer service received at this store! I almost left the merchandise on the counter and left because of her behavior but I really wanted the hat for my son so I did purchase it but I will NEVER be back. Completely unacceptable!

The store is superb but might want to work on staff. My sister was rudely approached when she walked in with a small cup of gelato

Last week, a friend visiting the area was asked to leave the store because she was breastfeeding (covered up, in a dressing room) her five-month-old son while her friend shopped there. She later returned to inform the manager what happened. Turns out, it was the manager who had kicked her out! The manager was unresponsive and indicated that she didn't care that she had shamed this woman - and broken the law!

Good newport wear. Sort of classic meets Caribbean. They have a little bit of everything. Men's and women's clothing and accessories. Price point is very fair. I just needed a printed belt but I will be back . The sales lady was very nice and helpful. Great downtown location to walk to.

If you are male the staff will approach you and offer a free beer while your wife tries stuff on. Thanks! Will return.

I was looking for something different besides the same old styles you find at the mall and department stores and walked into this great men's store in St. Armands Circle in Sarasota, Island Pursuit. They had a great selection and variety of name brands. I bought quite a few shirts from Bugatchi, Quicksilver, Southern Tide, Vineyard Vines, Kuhl. I would highly recommend this store and the staff was very helpful.

A very nice addition to the shops on Thames Street in Newport. Higher end islandy feel clothing. Not outrageous pricing. Excellent selection. A bright, open, airy store. Friendly staff.

I did not know until today that this is a "chain" of sorts. Well, they have stores in Sarasota, FL; Chatham, MA; Saibel, FL and now Newport.

Vineyard vines, LaCoste, Bugatchi, Tommy Bahama, nice stuff.
