Ahoy me hearties! Quite by accident, I say, the man wench and I sailed into port at a charmin little boutique that featured an amazing array of authentic gear for the proper pirate and the pirate wench! Friendly, knowledgeable shop wenches steered us to many styles of pirate garb and tales of the finest craftsmen! Whether you are a diehard pirate or just cruising for a Saturday treat, ring the bell and ask permission to come aboard! Ye shant be disappointed!

Ahoy me lads m ladies! I be Dead Red; The First Mate to Captain Tiger Lee of the South China Sea. A Five-year veteran of the brethren,(an old salt I be,) we have the largest selection of pirate period clothing as well as weapons, custom hat, hand made leather. And much more! These are not cheap costumes...they are made to be washed & worn [sometimes you may have to hang dry] and used at least 12 to 14 times a year without wearing out.

The absolute BEST place to buy pirate garb. I’ve bought several items from them, and they have exceeded my expectations every time. The quality their craftsmanship is great (well worth the price!) and their customer service is friendly and super helpful.I needed a button replaced on my coat (which wasn’t their fault), and Tiger offered to send me a replacement free of charge. Truly a class act and a credit to the pirate community.

My husband and I were searching for a specific souvenir and the treasure map took us to Pirate Fashions. X marked the spot!We were greeted by Dead Red where she let us aboard and she showed us around to all the areas. She was absolutely amazing and made us feel comfortable.The corset collection is outstanding and I highly suggest you check this place out regardless if you’re needing pirate attire or just want the experience.Thanks Dead Red for a memorable experience. We will be back!

As a professional cosplayer it is really hard to find durable costumes that stand the test of time. Pirate fashions has taken that into consideration. The next problem with wearing a costume is that theyre hot, stiff, and uncomfortable. A full formal pirate costume is like a 2nd skin. They get that we live in Florida and it gets hot here. Worth the look and the price.

Custom hat. Definitely not happy that it dosen’t look the same. After finding out that I cannot return it ($160!) I’ll never use them again. I’m so sad about this hat.

I love this place 🤩😍! Ive been following them online for years (Im from Louisiana) through their website and their YouTube channel! I recently visited their physical location for an internship in their sewing department. This place is even better in person than online 🤩! The people are so friendly and inviting and very helpful! The service is top notch!I also love how easy they make it to get into the pirate hobby. They have everything from affordable entry level garb all the way up to fancy garb for a formal pirate ball and anything in between! Not to mention all the accessories like baldrics and belts and props like steel swords, flintlock replicas, and even plastic swords and flintlocks 😊!They have something for almost every level of pirate enthusiast! Are you just dipping your toe into the scene and dont have any cash? Just get a bandanna, and maybe a sash. Want to fully look the part without breaking the bank? Get yourself a shirt and a pair of pants/breeches/slops for a basic deckhand look! Ready to up you game a bit and look more like an officer? Get a vest/waistcoat/weskit! Ready to go all the way to captain status? Get yourself a coat and hat and maybe a baldric, sword and gun!And thats just for the men; women have many options of corsets, blouses, skirts, dresses, and coats/jackets--and even pants, shirts, and vests for lasses who want to dress like a man, but still look feminine! Naturally women have the same entry level to super fancy options to choose from as well 😉!The only issue I might have with the store is the lack of a super premium line; they have an affordable beginner line, and premium line that is certainly worth the price, but personally Id love a super premium line made in linen with armhole gussets and other specifics from historical sewing patterns. This would fill a gap between super expensive hand-stitched historical garments and the machine-stitched offerings of this store. Currently, Im not aware of such a beginner level of garb for historical reenactors/enthusiasts.The other two lines, out of necessity, cater to modern sensibilities, but the option for more hardcore historical reenactors/enthusiasts would definitely be welcome, as well 😉. But if such specifics dont interest you, then you wont even notice the difference 😉! The other two lines are perfect for the overwhelming majority of customers 😁!But this is not enough to dock even a partial star, in my book. Even if it were, everything else about this store, from the environment, to the service, to the wide variety of products, would bump them up past 5 stars to 6 or 7 stars 🤩!My time there was so much fun that I simply cannot wait to return and, hopefully, work with them as an official member of the crew 😁🤩!

Ahoy mates! Fair winds and good tides to ye all. Welcome to Pirate Fashions. The finest pirate shop in all the world. Next time ye dock in port, make sure that ye take time to visit. There be no cheap Halloween costumes here. Come and allow your inner pirate to peruse the finest in pirate wear. So if ye be looking for historically accurate pirate garb and weapons, this be the place. This place is worth the visit. So next time ye be planning to stay in the Tampa Bay area, make time to visit Tiger Lee and his motley crew and they will treat you right.Captain Mystik, Pirate Magician

Review №21

Incredible quality pirate pieces for men and women. Excellent customer service, Tiger Lee made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. He knows his stuff and walked us through how to create a look with a jacket we brought in. He helped my fiance create a gorgeous ensemble. Whats more, he did not try to talk us into anything we didnt want or need, which is always a big plus for me. I could hardly believe the selection available in the store. We had been to the pirate store in St. Augustine, and it unfortunately did not have enough of a selection for what we needed. Pirate Fashions saved the day with its extensive and well-curated stock, making us two very happy and well dressed pirates - from a custom hat, to shirt, pants, silk accessories, leather boots, and even socks! I would absolutely recommend this store. 👍

If youve never been here its worth the visit. We spent an hour and they fitted us for our wedding. Yes a pirate wedding. You need it they have it . Quality clothes, hats and many other things.

Experts in turning a landlubber into a pirate ☠ no one, and I mean no one has the variety or the quality of pirate fashion. They make a lot right on the premises and the weapons are awesome whether you want firing or non firing. The best swords, and tricorns. You got to go the store.

Just a great experience! The entire staff is awesome, very helpful and very engaging. This is a must stop for me on every trip down... if your not a pirate, they can recruit you into the ranks... but if you are a decided landlubber... then stay ashore and dont ruin the fun!

Pirate Fashions is simply the best pirate clothing shop we have found. My husband and I travel extensively and we often check out shops in other cities. Absolutely nothing comes close to the authenticity of the clothing, size of the store, selection of clothing, and having staff who really know how to put an outfit together. Tiger and Dead Red (sales staff) are just awesome people.If you are looking for a cheap pirate costume, buy online. If you looking for authentic, well priced, beautiful pirate (and period) clothing, this is the place! Audrey

What an amazing place! To enter, you must ring the bell and ask permission to come aboard. You are welcomed by people who actually wear the products they sell. Everything is high quality, and the staff know the products inside and out. The atmosphere of the store makes you almost feel like you are aboard a ship by the kind of background sound. I will say that the items are a bit costly, but the quality cannot be matched. A fun place to visit even if you are just looking around!

Review №45

This is a very good Pirate store. They have an excellent selection of both mens and womens pirate garb, gear, and supplies. Their leather products are made in house and are of good quality and cost competitive with lesser quality stuff I found online.After ordering some stuff from them online, I was able to finally go to their store. On a trip to Disney, we drove the extra distance to Tampa to go to the store. The staff their is VERY helpful. They spent about 2 hours working through some outfits for my wife and I and are very knowledgeable about how the gear works and fits to together. Its also very entertaining just entering the store (its worth a visit just to enter).Looking forward to my next trip to the store the next time I am near Tampa.

I went to this store wanting a high quality pirate costume for Halloween, and I wasnt disappointed. The customer service was the best, and the quality of product was excellent. Not only did they help me put together what I think is a really awesome pirate outfit, they also taught me how to put everything on correctly. I could of easily made three or four completely different pirate outfits, and been thrilled with them, if I wanted.The gun and leather selection was great as well. The just for show guns look amazing, and are made of accurate materials. The pistol I got is solid metal and very well decorated, great heavy feel on the holster and belt they set me up with.I will assuredly go back to this store for more.

I do not recommend doing business with Pirate fashions. There are far better options to purchase better quality products at half the price online. Not to mention, they are very rude and unreasonable. I would suggest looking elsewhere.

Review №59

I have purchased several items from Pirate Fashions including a pair of slops--loose breeches. After washing the slops a couple times, I found that the crotch seam was unraveling and returned to Pirate Fashions to see about repairs.Rather than simply have the slops re-sewn, they made me an entire new pair at no cost whatsoever.I find them knowledgeable, friendly and eager to provide good quality items, whether a garment or a fully-functional reproduction of a black-power firearm. I recommend them most highly to anyone who wants good quality pirate gear, black-powder firearms, swords, knives, leather-goods or simply a book on the history of piracy.

We started shopping for our Gasparilla costumes last year and had the best personal experience. The gentleman dressed up my husband to match my outfit and turned out gorgeous. We were not pressured to buy and they recommend to start with the basics since the cost can add up quick. So thats what we did and this year we added a different color and bought more accessories. We are so hooked now. Prices are reasonable for what you get. The quality is outstanding. I highly recommend this place.

Loved this place from the minute I discovered it online. Ive never actually been to the shop itself, but Ive started piecing together my first real pirate outfit with products from the website, and I couldnt be happier. So far all I have bought are a shirt, bandana, sash, and pistol, and the quality on each one is great. Im planning to wear my completed outfit to Gasparilla. Cant wait to buy more stuff from this place. Unfortunately the website has been down for a while. Hopefully it gets fixed or Ill just have to go the shop and finally see it for my self. Sounds good to me. Swift sailing me hardys.

Just went to Pirate Fashions with my lady to get decked out for Gasparilla! This place is amazing and the service we received was top notch. Tiger spent over an hour with us and helped make our outfits look authentic and ensured they fit well. He even spent the time to teach me (a couple times) how to work a corset. I see other reviews mentioning price, yes it is expensive but you are paying for top notch stuff. This isnt cheap Halloween stuff. You arent gonna go to Tiffanys and ask for a cubic zirconia so dont expect to go to PF for a cheap costume! I cant wait to go back to add more to my costume!

WARNING BEFORE YOU PURCHASE ANYTHING HERE! keep in mind a pirate outfit will cost you between $500-$1,000. I thought the outfits were great and I was ok with spending $500. The problem was I bought their $100 boots and they lasted me 3 hours before they fell completely apart. In three hours it looked as if I wore them for 10 years. All cracked. Im guessing they had these in storage for years. Call and told them about it and their words were, well you did buy our cheapest set of boots really $100 boots should last for 3 hours? Thanks Pirate fashions for horrible customer service.

Pirate Fashions is like stepping into an 18th century tailor shop. Excellent quality and service. The quality of the clothes is original and to the time period. We came in to the shop the day before Gasparilla and were well treated, despite the large crowd of other customers. We would highly recommend a visit to the shop just for the experience when you are in Tampa. The shop is definitely the place to buy clothing for Gasparilla. Travel safe.
