We will no longer be getting new inventory on any Spartan Brands or Cristina products. We will sell out of our existing inventory and close out that line.

If you are interested in durags, sleep caps, etc. from Spartan Brands, please hurry. Selection is very limited.

We regret to report that we are discontinuing the Saniyyah product line over the coming weeks. As we sell out of our existing inventory, we will not have more. We do have alternatives for most, if not all of the products. If you have any questions about alternatives, please contact us via email.

Peace,
