It's been a while since I last reviewed ButterScotch LBC, I think my last review was in 2020. So…read moreI'm long over due for an update. I've still been coming in to the shop about 2 to 5 times a year on average since about 2018. In fact I own all but 1 of their motel anniversary key chains at this point. I still think it's a great store, and Tommy's aesthetic and eye for detail (on the decor and hand-picked items, and colabs) is far above any other men's moto-centric fashion retailers out there. That's what makes this update hard; the main issue I currently encounter with the shop is on the customer service side. I'm likely a bit bias here as I've worked on the service side with multi-billion dollar companies for a couple of decades now and have high expectations, which I even put on myself but I don't believe they're at all unreasonable, considering the cost of the items that are sold at the shop. I'll start with a few months ago; I reached out to the ButterScotch LBC instagram account via DM (which I've done in the past without issue) and ask if they'll be stocking a new item (gloves) from a retailer which I know they've sold in the past/currently, someone reads my message (confirmed via instagram 'read/seen' verifiction) but I get zero response back from them to confirm/deny if they'll be having said item in stock...Fine, no biggie maybe someone forgot to reply, I count it as a miss on there end. Fast forward to today, I stop by at the shop at 1:10PM after about a 40-mile group ride with friends, and I was excited to introduce my riding buddies to the shop. After circling for parking (which is pretty difficult btw) I see the lights all off in the shop and the bars on the front door. Odd because I checked the site and instagram profile, and it says they are open from 1p-5p on Sundays. I also checked the stories to make sure I didn't miss any news updates about closure today, and nada. My assumption is Tommy or one of his workers is running behind on opening the shop. Not a biggie we continue the ride with my friends to BA Moto to meet up for an event and I tell them not to worry I'll DM the shop and see if maybe they're just opening later today. I messaged the shop 20 minutes later and ask if they'd be open later instead or at all today so we could swing by on the way back from our ride, and once again the message is shown as 'read/seen' but no sign of life nor response. So I had to tell my friends that I'm assuming the stores closed for the day, and we can't stop by, total missed opportunity for some new customers. So here's my dilemma, in the past I've corresponded with Tommy directly via instagram DM with zero issues, now I'm not getting any response and I'm not sure if it's because they don't like to use instagram messaging as a means of communication now if they simply don't want my buisness any more (if that's the case it's totally fine) it's just a really odd customer service experience regardless. At this point, I'd give the unqiue clothing/items a 4 out of 5, the shop decor a 4 out of ,5 and then customer service a 2 out of 5 so they land currently at a 3 out of 5 overall for me at the moment. For what it's worth, I do hope to update this to a better review at some point if the situation can ever be clarified for me.

The problem is coming from the most terrible customer service I have ever experienced. I picked up a pair of boots here a little over a year ago, and about 5 months in, the sole of one of Jen started to come apart. No big deal - things happen. I brought the boots in several months ago, probably early January if not earlier for repair. They said no problem, and sent it to their shop and said it would be ready in a couple weeks and that they would call me when I could pick them up. Seemed like a bit of a wait, but ok. A couple months later, I decided to call and see where they were at. "Still not ready, we will let you know." A couple weeks after that, I go into the store. You'll never guess: still not ready. I called almost a month later. Still not ready. At this point, I have had enough and ask for my boots back. They say they will have to make some calls and they will call me back within a day. A week and a half later, and I haven't heard back and now can't even get a hold of them. I paid over $300 for a pair of boots that started falling apart in less than a year, and it has taken 4 months (and counting) to repair them and now I can't even get them back or get a hold of the people at the shop. Absolutely unbelievable.

I explained to her that I was there on a mission to find jeans that fit me well. I was embarrassed to admit I wasn't even 100% my size is and I want to fix that today. Brianna seemed stoked for the task! I explained the kind of cut I think I want and she asked me to look around while she went to work on selecting sizes, styles and different washes for me. Once she had a solid line up for me I started trying them all on. Her and Chelsea came over a few times to check on my progress to see if I wanted any different colors or sizes in what was picked out for me. One of them also mentioned that with the pair I end up picking I get a free hem to help get the length just right for me! I was instantly sold on the curvy flare jeans once I knew I could get them hemmed for my short legs. Once they pinned my pants to be ready for the hemming, I checked out and they let me know when they'd be ready for pick up. A few days later I got a call they were ready and when I went to pick them up I was greeted with a smile by Brianna again!
