Clothing in Nantucket

There are many places to buy clothes in Nantucket, while each shop sells different clothes, you can be sure that any shop you go to will be expensive.  Three shops in Nantucket that sell nice clothes, souvenir clothes, and just regular clothes are The Sunken Ship, Murray's Toggery Shop, and Force 5. 

The Sunken Ship mostly is a shop that sells toys for kids, as well as other cool  things, for clothes though they mostly sell souvenir clothes.  These clothes range from shirts that say Nantucket on them, to hats with propellers on them that also say Nantucket.  The Sunken Ship is really a cool shop and has a lot of neat clothes; such as sweatshirts, sweatpants, and shorts, that appeal to all different people.  Also they sell Nantucket themed belts, sandals, and even Nantucket themed cowboy hats.  The Sunken Ship is the place to go for any Nantucket themed clothing.

Force 5 is another great place to buy clothes in Nantucket.  Force 5 is a surf shop that sells cool bathing suits, all types of sandals, nice shirts, and so much more.  They also have a candy shop in the back of the store for kids.  If your going to be out on the beach or near the water at all then Force 5 is a place you have to go to.  As almost everywhere in Nantucket they are a little pricey but they do have most brand name clothes and also sell things such as surf boards and skim boards.  Force 5 is the place to go if your into watersports.

 The best clothing store on the island by far is Murray's Toggery Shop.  Murray's is home to the famous Nantucket Reds and is located on Main Street.  The main Murray's shop has all sorts of nice clothes that can be worn for any special occasion or just if you want to look nice.  The Murray's on Main Street though is rather expensive though, but there is another Murray's Toggery Outlet which is just a few streets down where the prices are much cheaper and they also have a very large selection.  Murray's is the heart of Nantucket clothing and a must stop if your thinking about purchasing any clothing in Nantucket.
