Absolutely love this place. They have the coolest stuff and I always say that this is my favorite place to shop in town. Take your friends and don’t forget to buy one of the awesome patches they make, too!

One of my favorite hidden gems in Carbondale!! So many cool vintage items, clothes, records, local art, accessories!! I believe everything in the store is hand picked by the owner and for the quality of items everything is super reasonably priced and well organized! I love this store and I've introduced many friends here. Usually the same gal is working up front, usually working on art and listening to a record and she's always friendly and ready to answer any questions.

Driving through IL and stopped in town to grab coffee and spotted the shop... literally spent hours here. Every piece is worth combing through and the person working was so sweet!

If you are willing to take some time and look Tropicana has so many amazing pieces, many in really good condition. If you are looking for authentic vintage jackets, vests, jeans, and tees this place is awesome. ?

The owner named Tom if he didn’t had what you want leave your info and he will help. Also enjoy few great stories about this area too. Also Martha the lady that works there she makes awesome patches. Give it a shot totally worth it

Very small shop but plenty of cool vintage clothes. The lady at the counter was extremely polite and helpful.

This place is a constant disappointment. It doesn't have to be, they have some great stock and a decent location, but the place is a dump and a flea factory. Nothing is sorted, it all just lies there in piles, floor to ceiling. Their operating hours are a mystery, the store is usually closed during normal business hours, and maybe open one random day a week, if that.
The prices they charge are outrageously expensive for old used clothing that's been laying around in piles of other old used clothes in a vermin zoo. Expect to drop $30 for a "vintage" Hawaiian shirt with "faded glory" on the tag. Seriously.
These guys need to get rid of the surplus stock and make this place look like a funky vintage boutique.
Until then... avoid this place!
