Tafari Tribe Globe Trade

I can’t wait to actually go inside! It looks amazing from the window. I wish their online store was fleshed-​out, but I understand from the website that this has to do with the fact that their products are handmade, so they probably do not have many SKUs that can be queued as premade.

Shopping and Hanging out at the Tafari Tribe Outpost. We met the family and shared good information with each other. We made some purchases and they hit us off lovely with several gifts in the Afrikan tradition. They also have a beautiful night club next door. Nice experience.

Why have I just now discovered this shop! I almost want to be selfish and keep it to myself. I purchased a kente printed dress for $ 60 which was originally priced for $ 80. The material is great and I feel that the clothing is priced appropriately. This shop has so much from oils, bags, incense, shea butter, and the most beautiful jewelry and body adornments. I loved the friendly staff who were attentive and helpful. I look forward to becoming a regular in this shop.

Almost missed this as I was about to give up and go home. Great staff, go above and beyond to help. came out with this gorgeous dress. got sooooo many compliments. will be going again. Thanks Tafari

Every time I set my eyes on a new item I fell in love. This family, was very welcoming, so much that I received a hug before leaving the store. I spent over an hour hanging out with these amazing folks. My only regret is that I didn’t get their names. Energy rich atmosphere. My new favorite place to shop. Respect #ase

I walked out literally with a piece of art that I can wear. I loved every second that I was in this shop. Walking into this family run black-​owned shop, I was greeted by Stedman and Sandra, the woman who owns the store. She helped me pick out clothing that fit my body type and looked amazing on me. She was honest about what would fit and looked good on me. It was obvious she wasn’t just trying to get me to buy everything.
Eventually her daughter took over helping me and I walked out with not only a gorgeous dress for myself but a dress for my mom that will be her holiday gift. I can’t wait to wear this.
Everything in the store is handmade and designed by this mother and daughter team, and it definitely shows. Each piece is original. I cannot stop raving about this place, I loved it so much. I spent a good half hour talking about the shop, myself, where they were from. It was great.
I don’t care if you’re there to support small businesses, love afrocentric clothing, need some awesome art, or just wander in unawares… you will walk out with something. Pictures of the dresses will follow :)

Everytime I walk into Tafari Tribe w/​my family, we are welcomed with warm hearts and open arms. Your not rushed to buy anything, your offered water and a seat and everyone sits down to speak w you/​as if they’ve known you for years. The ambiance is beautiful, they really care about their appearance and you can tell that they want their store to be a reflection of not just them as store owners, but the people who live in the neighborhood as well. Everything from the placement of the artwork to the setup of the jewelry, clothes etc… While much of the fashions cater to Women, the Men’s clothes they do have in particular the Dashiki’s are VERY NICE. I I bought one to wear at my brothers wedding and my wife bought a dress that was just exquisite! Everybody wanted to know where she got it from, and she directed them right to Sandra, Sahida & Steadman @ Tafari Tribe. I’m also glad they sell a mixture of clothing and jewelry that borrow from many Eastern cultures but in particular, African clothing that has been updated to 2013. Too often African clothing shops sell clothes that are way too big, as if this is still the 90’s. In fact, I have to swing by this week, to see whats new with their Menswear! See you guys soon!

I am overall a fan of Tafari Tribe as a store.
I go there specifically for their African jewelry — namely their banana wood items.
The price for the bracelets ($ 10 – 15 typically) is pretty comparable to other African clothing and jewelry stores and sometimes I find a nice pair of earrings as well.
