Siculamente

Palermo


Wear a little Sicilian slang with one of the T-shirts, sweat tops, hats or bags sold at this cool little shop. All bear captions in local dialect, from pithy Sicilian proverbs to cheeky, humorous or political statements. The store's online catalogue provides translations into English and Italian to help your friends decipher exactly what kind of statement you're trying to make.

There's a second branch on Via Maqueda.
