Awesome video!!! I have been thinking about buying The Rocky Marciano, but it looked blue on the Internet, but now I get to see the hat in your video that it is black the way they described it! The only problems that I’ve come across with the Boston Scally hats is the sizing! I have gotten so far 4 hats from them and they’re all XL, and all 4 are a different size! One is very tight, the other is just right, and the other one is a little loose, and the worst is so big that it’s at least 3 times bigger than what it’s supposed to be! I really hate returning stuff in the mail, so I’ve tried my best with Hat sizers to make them fit. Boston Scally doesn’t even show my Hat size, it goes from a 58CM straight to a 60CM without bothering to stop at 59CM! 🙁

Thank you for the kind words. Sizing can be a bit tough when you are in between BSC sizes. The general rule of thumb is that the heavier weight caps (wool blend) tend to run a bit big and the lighter fabrics (poly blends) tend to run a bit tighter. It is not always the case as even BSC says that there is a +/- 1 CM in sizing, but it generally works out that way. Tighter caps can be stretched a bit, looser caps can be steamed to shrink a bit as well as using sizing tape, but I get the frustration on the fit. For me I tend to prefer a looser fit so I have gone up a size on the styles where I was in between.

I received my Codder caps yesterday. My Saltbox Blue Lobster cap arrived with a crooked seam, and the inside graphic was just the standard BSC logo instead of the special design. Although the graphic isn't a huge deal since it's only visible to me, the seam issue is disappointing, especially since the Lobster hat is now sold out. On a positive note, the Grey Sand Shark and Black Sand Shark caps, which I got for myself and my son, were both perfect. I reached out to BSC last night about the seam issue and am waiting for their response. I'll be doing a video next week probably once I hear back from them.

I love the single panels. I even emailed BSC asking for more lightweight singles. My first 2 caps were the black and the gray Bruiser and I love them. Just recently got into the 8 panels. I had been leery about trying them but after I got my first one, I just kept buying them lol. I have the Triple Crown and the Derby coming which puts me up to about 20 total caps now. I tried one 6 panel, the black/ gray Trainer, I tried to like it, but it never felt right or looked right on my tiny head, so I ended up selling it. I'm not a baseball cap kind of guy. I've never been much of a hat guy, the only time I wore hats was when I was in the military and that's because I had to. Now that I shave my head bald and I'm getting older I need to keep the sun off of my head so BSC is now my go to. I like the reviews, and I'm on the same BSC FB pages as you, so I'll see you there!

Are all your Boston Scally hats size XL or depending on style do you have to go to size ML ? I had to return three trainer style hats in XL got a gift card and going to reorder size ML. What do you think ? An aside Boston Scally issued me the gift card when they saw that I had mailed the hats back. My head size is 59 CM. I have the Original Boston Scally Cap - The Scrapper Newsboy Flat Cap - 6 Panel Cotton Fitted Hat in XL and it fit.

I am purely in XXL now. When I started, I was in XL in single panels as that is where my head size was listed and XXL in 8 panel. As my collection grew, I found that different fabrics tended to fit differently. Heavier weight fabrics tend to fit looser and lighter weight fabrics tended to fit a bit tighter. I went XXL with my first 5 panel and loved the fit and even went XXL with 6 panels and liked the fit even though my head size should have been XL in 6 panel. I have since gone with XXL in single panel as well. If you are in between sizes, I would tend to favor the larger size in lighter fabrics and the smaller size in the heavier weight fabrics. Hope this helps.

Their size guide is really good. I am a 7 3/4 New Era fitted ball cap and have found the XXL a good fit. Each hat style has its own unique size chart so it is best to look at all four size charts (single, 5, 6, and 8 panels) depending on which hat you are looking to get. If you are in between sizes, lighter fabric hats tend to fit snug while the heavier fabrics tend to fit a bit looser.

Thank you! If you like the single panel design, take a look at The Keeper and The Townie series of caps. I have reviewed both in previous videos and The Townie will be a little bit cooler than the Keeper. If you want to experiment with other styles of caps, The Trainer series is probably the best for the hot weather followed by the Cape Codder series and Caddy series. There is also The Birdie in single panel which is similar to The Trainer series, bit there is only one colorway available. Hope this helps.
