The Sailor - Plum

$49.00

Color: Plum

Only a few left in this size.

The level of detail in the ‘Sailor’ Collection Boston Scally cap is unmatched. Designed with a pre-washed cotton twill to give it a slight sun and salt faded appearance, this cap was built to take on everything from land to sea. Each scally cap will have a collector’s edition sailor logo on the inside with a crimson compass embroidery on the back left panel. The underside lining and brim resemble the color of a worn in nautical rope, which gives it just enough contrast.

Available Colors: Plum, Driftwood Grey, Tide Blue and Midnight Sky

Material: Cotton twill

Style: 6-Panel

How to Measure Caps

Wrap a cloth measuring tape around your head just above your eyebrows and ears. Pull the tape comfortably snug, read the length, repeat for good measure and use the largest measurement. A piece of string will work too, then just hold it up to a ruler and measure.

Reviews

Nice color - darker than pictured

"The Plum cap is a great color and I enjoy the sand colored brim as well. Love the 6 panel style that’s somewhere between a flat cap and a baseball hat! I have found that most of the pictures tend to be lighter than the actual colors, so have included pictures. The picture I took is a tiny bit more red than in person. I have a 22 1/2 inch head and it is a little loose (M/L) but the small is too tight on me. I have found that curving the brim a little helps to give a touch more ‘grip’ to help it fit better."

"it ads to my collection. wish Boston Scally more purple color options. a Mardi Gras cap of purple, green & gold would be sweet!"

Blair K. (5/5)

This hat

"This hat comes as pictured, weathered purple. Size M/L is closer to the larger end of the scale. Had to return first one Becuse of inconsistency with sizes between styles. Returns have been fast and simple through email quick responses."

Love this cap!

"Cool, perfect for summer. Love the plum color. I did need to get a stretcher to make it fit perfectly, but that was easy enough. Highly recommend. It won’t be my last Scally cap."

Christopher G. (5/5)

"Great color gently faded! This is my first “sailor” and i love the fit. It fits more like my favorite original peaky."

Philip (5/5)

Really comfortable, great looking hats.

"Great brim. Instantly comforting. Not normally a hat guy but this is pushing me hard in that direction. It’s my second. I have the Micky Ward as well."

Giles T. (5/5)

Great product…. Unfortunately…. complaint is

"These hats are amazing. No complaints on the product at all My is regarding excise taxes and tarrifs added after payment. I know this is not your charges, and I know there is some tax to be expected. But it cost me almost as much as the product cost to be able to receive my packsge from the Post Office. Unfortunately i will not be ordering anymore of your product. Its a shame that the governments can ruin a good thing. I hAve received lots of mercandise from Boston Scally in the past. I think im up to 25 plus hats now. But i have never been charged that much extra. I wish it was different, and I do understand this is totally out of your control As well. The fact is, i just cant afford to get hit with unknown charges. All the best. Keep on making your great hats, I get compliments on them all the time."

The perfect cap

"Easily one of my favorite caps I own. The fade/tone is perfect and the fabric is soft. I like to rough up my hats a bit before wearing them and this hat broke in perfectly and distressed in the right spots. The lid is the perfect size, it just feels like a ha I’ve been wearing for years."
