‘47

The new design of this store
call this a flagship store is way overstated. Selection has totally gone down. Was there last week and had planned on buying literally one of everything but oh well. Looks like lids or
gets the business

Great selection of hats. Not a ton of basic hats if you are looking for that. The prices are well, really high but this is more like a fine clothing boutique than a hat store. Really clean, really nice, guy that works here is really accommodating but i am pretty sure bored out of his mind. I feel like these hats never fit right, there are a nice style but the xl looks like a diaper on your head and the L feels to tight on the day you buy it. Such is life i guess, i go with the XL and hope i can get it to shrink quick.

Great store with friendly staff and selection. Newly renovated space is welcoming and clean!

The recent renovations are not an improvement. Smaller section and selection for women. The only reason I give 4 stars instead of 3 is because of Jessica. She’s an awesome salesperson and truly gets what customer service is all about. Love the product and Jessica, not a fan of the «upgrades» to this location.

The new store remodel looks awesome! Casby and Jess were not only extremely helpful but very cool too. Always shop here when we are visiting from Florida and will continue to!

I walked into the new store expecting to want everything per usual. The manager was warm and welcoming, she helped me as much as possible. But there was none of the classic 47 apparel. Disappointed

I love this place! The clothes and stuff are so cute and I even though i feel I own every pats and red sox item made, I always manage to find something else. This is also my go to for all my Christmas shopping. Jessica, the manager, is always so helpful and sweet and bends over backwards to help me get what I need. I love this place!

I have had the opportunity to visit the store often and find my favorite Brand merch available. The ’47 staff are great to help in finding exclusive items that you won’t find anywhere else. The store manager, Jessica knows all things ’47 and is a great help! Check it out.

Had a pretty awful experience at this store. I went into the store 2 days ago to buy my girlfriend a t shirt. When I bought it, the girl behind the register gave me a gift receipt, not a real receipt and cut the tag in half. After 2 days I decided a mediocre t shirt for $ 38 was a little much. So I went back to the store and they wouldn’t let me return it.
I could only exchange or get a gift card. I live in Denver (go patriots) so I don’t know when I’ll be back. I asked the girl to see what she could do and she called her manager who I spoke with on the phone.
The manager said she was so sorry for the inconvenience and wanted to assure me they do anything for their customers and will bend over backwards for them. BUT, she could not give me my money back for the product.
All I’m saying is if you want an mediocre product, with awful customer service and at astronomical prices this is the place for you. BUT, if you are a hard working person who values customer service and thinks a company should stand behind their products go and buy them with a company who cares about it’s customers.
I have purchased several shirts, hats, scarves… from this company in the past and will never go back. You have lost a customer for life, and many others after they read this.

It is a neat little store even though I would consider the inventory of what they had a hodge podge of what the brand offers and lots of missing sizes. I really like 47 Brand but, I wish this store offered more selection instead of the boutique selection. The prices seem high for them since LIDS offers better pricing on the hats with their discount program. But, I would for sure come back. The salespeople could use a little coaching as well in being friendly.

My interaction was limited to phone, and a quick purchase. You see, I was eyeballing the «B STRONG» baseball cap available on their website, and it just so happened that the store was in the midst of receiving a delivery when I called. Yippee!
Pre-​order online was limited to 5 per person, but in person it was 3. Fine with me, that was just the number I wanted. And at $ 20 each, it is two dollars less than what they normally charge for their baseball caps. And in the case of the «B Strong» caps, all proceeds are donated to the One Fund. Nice!
Service — both on the phone and in person — was efficient yet friendly enough.

Had an issue with a shirt I bought there a while back. They exchanged it with no questions asked. Maybe they’re little pricy but such service makes up for it.

A very spacious store on Newbury specializing in vintage sports apparel, ’47 has quite a bit to offer. Even so, the selection could afford to be more extensive and the prices are no joke. There’s a sale section towards the back where items are more reasonable, but not surprisingly… most of the stuff will be Larges and beyond.

Limited Selection, ugly styles and expensive prices.

This newb street spot is pretty cool.
One day i stumbled across this store by accident and was quickly impressed and happy i had done so.
If you are looking for sports shirts (local and national) that you can wear and not look like a complete meathead, this is for you.
I will say the the shirts, sweats, hoodies, hats, ect are not cheap, but you get are getting high quality garb.
I mean, sure you can get a nice soft «faded» graphic t of your favorite sports team from old navy or urban outfitters, but thats all it is.
This place has nicer stuff, I’m talking embroidered, embossed, high quality gear, and not just from your local market.

As a brand, I really like ’47. They have really unique, mostly vintage inspired sports apparel. If you’re looking for shirts or hats for your favorite Boston sports team that are unique and slightly more stylish than something with a big Nike swoosh, this is your place.
The disappointing aspects about this store are the mediocre assortment and then the pricing (more a brand aspect than a knock on the store). I expected that the Newbury ’47 store would have an amazing selection, but Lids actually had a better assortment of ’47 brand Red Sox hats. They had a good number of Red Sox t-​shirts, but other teams were much more limited. They don’t seem to use the space all that well. Take away the merchandise, and it doesn’t feel like a vintage sports store. If you’re going to build a store on Newbury, go all out and build your brand equity!
On the pricing element, expect to pay $ 40 for a t-​shirt. It’s not awful, given that many have sewn on lettering or other unique elements, but it’s definitely some of the most expensive sports apparel you’ll find. But you’ll stand out as the semi-​stylish guy amidst a crowd at Fenway!

I like their clothing but I will never order from their website again! I got my shirt and it was a little big so I called and ask about the return policy I was told I would have to pay 5 $ ok a little irritated I know its not a lot but I just said 40 for a t-​shirt plus the shipping. so I went to the post office they told me 9 $.not what banner 47 told me so I called and they said ”ohhh ya you got to pay to ship it to us then pay AGAIN to ship it back to you… iv never heard such a thing… so if I ship it back its going to be the most expensive t-​shirt I have ever bought
Ridiculous…

This place has great apparel and a solid selection. I have to agree that the prices are a little high for what they’re selling, but it iis newbury. I think the staff could be a little more friendly too. I’m not saying I want a sales rep up in my face, but a smile and a pleasant attitude should be a minimum

I was pretty excited about ’47 when I walked by it for the first time. Right near my apartment, a cool looking vintage sports apparel store. I finally made it in there on the day after Thanksgiving, in hopes of finding some retro Celtics t-​shirt to give my Dad for the coming holiday. They had plenty, but all at a minimum $ 40 apiece. Now I am not a cheapskate, and the quality seemed decent, I just sort of have a personal threshold of not paying more than $ 30 for a t-​shirt, and even at $ 30, it has to be a damn good t-​shirt.
ANYWAYS…
I shifted gears to find some Miami gear for my alum girlfriend and was directed to a lonesome, solitary women’s sweatshirt (size small), hidden back in the corner. Perfect. Wait…$ 120? I checked the pockets to see if it came with a pair of $ 20 bills, but it didn’t. I was the only one in the store, and apparently there was a generous day-​after-​Thanksgiving sale and I could take it for the low low price of $ 80. I decided to pass for now, as the sales girl (who was pleasant and friendly) assured me that it hasn’t moved and likely wouldn’t move anytime soon. As I left, I thought that I’d think it over, and come back in a couple of weeks, and see what the price was then.
I popped in today, and it was back at $ 120, no sale. Again, the only person in the store. I’ve never seen anyone else in there. Come to think of it, I walk by frequently and have never seen anyone coming or going from the store. My thought at this point was that I could at least get it for the $ 80 sale price I had seen it at before, and perhaps even for a few bucks less. We are talking a sweatshirt marked up probably 400%, in an independently owned, oft-​empty, store, that was offering this item at a 30% discount a couple of weeks before… in my experience, this is a negotiation situation.
The sales girl, again friendly up until this point, bristled at my suggestion of a negotiation, when I asked if we could at least do it for the previously offered $ 80, actually saying «This isn’t a negotiation», before walking away. I pointed out that she herself said it wasn’t going to sell, thinking this might make the case for taking an $ 80 cash sale and selling something that day. No go.
LOOOOOONG story short, the merchandise here is probably an A-​, and they do have some nice stuff, but they are really pushing it hard on the prices, and could probably come down to earth quite a bit (and still make a healthy profit too). I know it is Newbury Street, but I think they are not being realistic with the price points, and would attract a much greater clip of business at a slightly lower per item price. And if you are going to try and push massively marked up merchandise in this economy, you should at least be open to moving merchandise at a slight discount, as long as it leaves you a healthy margin and allows you to make money.
