From the few times they reply to a message, it doesn’t look like the care to fix that problem. Or work with curators to get content on their hats out there. While I don like my scraper, and still wear it. I would currently pass and go with a different company.
Thanks. I did reach out to them. Sent them my review and mentions s try yet need more photo assets. All i got in return was a standard reply saying they would get it to the “right people.”
Thanks for the review. And their site is still lacking model pics. But I’ve looked at the Scrapper (SE Georgia) hat and now I like the look even more. Thanks brother.
They really need to update product images with people wearing the hats. Several have subtle differences on shape. And it would be very beneficial to see what they look like on a person.
Another negative that I saw in another review is that apparently the caps are made in China, rather than in Boston. But it’s a good looking cap and so I’m adding them, including your video, to my new playlist. I may even get one. Great review!
Yes, the hat is made in China. But almost everything is anymore. It’s a Boston based company with a Boston based style. But I’m happy with my hat. And I still wear it almost everyday.
@@dctruckguy I've bought this style of hat at Target before for $12-$15. One of the $12 ones was my favorite hat. Solid build quality, great fit, lasted forever (I still have it somewhere, but it is so dirty now, I can't wear it out). Others were completely junk. In fact I bought the same hat at Target years later to replace my worn out one, and it was junk. So a cheaper price isn't necessarily a good thing. Nor is a premium price point. But I have had much better luck spending a little more for any product than going with the cheap version. If you are uncertain if the style will work for you, by all means get a cheaper one to test it out. See if it's for you. You might find a winner and get a great hat (or any product) at a better price. I have reached out to Boston Scally to see if they wanted to work together to make more reviews and comparison videos. They said they would let the right people know, then I never heard anything again.
It looks like it is just the top few newly added caps. But that's a start. Hopefully they add some shots to each of the hats. Even if it was just one color way of each style.
I haven't made a purchase for the same exact reason. By pics alone they mostly look the same on their website. I've been visiting their site since last year and still haven't made a purchase.
Some of the newer styles have photos of people wearing the hats. While some of the hats are simple the same design with different materials, some are subtle but different cuts. I didn't want one that sat to high on my head or being a more "trucker" style with a high front. I did a lot of digging to find one I knew was a slimmer profile.
I look through their different styles and think how does each style they offer look on the head and which is correct for my face shape and head. What are the actual intentions of each style. Intended use.
I'm considering a purchase and like your review. A coupled of questions: 1) How has the hat held up for about 2 years now and has it stretched? 2) You mentioned you bought the M/L size. Do you remember what your head measured in inches for comparison?
As far as durability, the hat has held up very well. I don't wear it as often these days (trying to not wear hats as often. Though I normally wear them to film as my hair is crazy!). But I has very little signs of fading, and I don't think it stretched to much. I would still wear it to work in an office building to this day. As far as my head measurement. I do not remember it, and I do not have a soft measuring tape with me now to get that for you.
It would appear they do not listen to customers. There are other manufactures out there that do a better job with marketing materials. Best to move on to someone else.
Right! I want to get some for my son for Christmas but he has a ton of hair. I need to see someone else with that much hair wearing one. So annoying! If they accepted returns it wouldn't be too big of a deal but they don't!
@@marisayangello9411 I did have long hair and was still able to comfortably wear the hat. And I do have some wild curly, puffy hair. Not to say that is going to be the case with everyone though.
I wish I could post a picture of the defective cap they sent me. Too late I noticed it was sewn with the wrong size panels on the back, the whole shape of the hat is wrong. “Customer Service” attitude is essential “haha, gotcha”. A real shame since it would be such an easy thing to make right.
That sucks! I’ve heard a lot of stories similar to this. I guess I got really lucky with my hat. It still fits me really well and he held up over time. I don’t wear it as much now…. Letting my crazy curls live their life these days. But I do wear it often.
Love the video Jeff and appreciate all you've covered. I'm on my first Scally and like it the more I wear it. And...no offense in any way; but while watching your video I'm getting a distinct Woody Allen vibe. I suspect your are from the northeast as well? :) Keep on posting!
I am from the Northeast. But I am from PA and not Yonkers NY. I'm also not into under age girls, incest or writing shitty movies putting myself opposite of young women in love scenes.
It seemed like they were trying to fix the issue by adding images of people wearing their hats to new products. But they went back to just product images on white. A few snaps of someone rocking a cap would go a long way to help sell some product.
It appears some of the newer hats they are doing lifestyle images. They really need to shoot a few for all the hats. They are just different enough, to warrant some photos.
Hi. Any way you could measure the depth for me man? I wanna make sure it can make it down to the top of my ears because I have a big dome, hahaha. Thanks 😎✌️
The scrapper is a lighter build. I chose this specifically for that reason so I cold wear it in summer without sweating bullets. They now make a model or two aimed for summer wearing, but the scrapper was just fine for me.
@@jeffgrantMEDIA nice man. I am trying to decide which size. My head is such a weird size and have hard time with hats. My hat now is a M/L but according to the BS sizing chart I would be a small.
@@patrickmulligan3101 if I remover correctly, I was also in their size small. But normally I’m also a m/l. I bought some hat reducers on Amazon thinking I would need them. Turned out the M fit me perfect. No need for the hat reducers aftet all. And the hat fits well with long hair and short.
Oh man…. I thought this was a comment on my newest GREENROOM136 video. I buy totally agree. Boston Scally does have a terrible site. And yes, their shipping is atrocious! My hate shipped from a DC a few miles away from my house and took forever to get to me. Insane.
That is literally every company these days. I’m not defending Boston Scally, I don’t work for them I bought this out with my own money. But every single company you visit the website or order anything you’ll forever be getting a spam emails from them. Best thing to do is create a filter sending directly to spam hit unsubscribe, that way when it doesn’t unsubscribe you never actually have to see them again.

thank you for this video! I too wish they would show people wearing the different styles they have.
Thanks for watching!
I'm literally on RUclips to see what these hats look like on people's head because there's no pictures of people wearing them

I agree 100% about the lack of photos.
3 years later... and still very limited photos....
My Scrapper arrives today. Cheers.
Had mine on my head yesterday!
Yea honestly I feel the same way about the pictures of someone wearing the hat as well. Great review man

That would be awesome if you got to model for them for some head shots.
journey_with _jay I’m so damn good looking, they would sell out in minutes!

@@jeffgrantMEDIA Id pay a little more to have them made in Boston. Btw I have 6 so far
@@dctruckguy the price point is about what I would pay for a made in USA hat. Probably up to $50 for the same quality.
@@jeffgrantMEDIA I see irish caps selling for $39 so the Boston scully are a premium price.

Totally agree with your gripe with the website
It seemed like they were trying to fix the issue by adding images of people wearing their hats to new products. But they went back to just product images on white. A few snaps of someone rocking a cap would go a long way to help sell some product.
@@jeffgrantMEDIA thanks for the info. It really helped.
Glad I could help out!
I agree I would like to see it on someone’s head, because people heads are different sizes and shapes.
It appears some of the newer hats they are doing lifestyle images. They really need to shoot a few for all the hats. They are just different enough, to warrant some photos.
Hi. Any way you could measure the depth for me man? I wanna make sure it can make it down to the top of my ears because I have a big dome, hahaha. Thanks 😎✌️
Sorry totally forgot to do this before I left the house this morning. I’ll try and remember to oh when we get home.
Would you recommend year round? Or too warm for summer

Wet it and put it in the dryer..Worked for me.
It fit just fine aftet some wearing in and a little bit sweat.
Tattoos just make that look even cooler
Ummm.... Thank you.?.?.?
Long term review??
I can make that happen.
@@jeffgrantMEDIA I’m here for it. 🤘
@@ArtByAnthonyV notes have been taken. Now to see if the mini me falls asleep at a reasonable hour some time to go film.
Anyone get one of these soaked? Wash it?
I’ve gotten it pretty wet in the rain. It dryer just fine. Never washes it though n
Silly man guy hehe

They do have a terrible web site. Slow and expensive shipping as well.
The site can be slow. But as for shipping. It’s actually pretty average. And it coming form across the world.

Don't subscribe to Boston Scally, they will literally haunt you down and shove advertisements down your throat even if you unsubscribe,
