I saw the boutique being spoken of on Facebook, and one of my friends said we should check it out that day, and we did. I fell in love with a lot of the merchandise, which clearly is one of a kind. The owner does not sell many of the same pieces, which I appreciate. The customer service was superb, and the owner is one of the most colorful people I will ever meet in my lifetime. If you are looking for something different and unique, the Dollhouse is the place to go. #HappyShopping

I've bought (amongst other things) a vintage men's cashmere overcoat, a pocket flask, Lucky Tiger…read moreaftershave balm, and a very nice silvertip badger shaving brush from Sixteen Tons. This is a shop that can satisfy the needs of the hipster who needs to dress up his retro a little bit, along with young professionals who want some classic flair. Yes, you can wear a tweed jacket over raw-selvedge denim jeans and make it look good. The shop's got a good selection of both new and old, the buying for vintage clothes is done well, and prices are very reasonable. If you wanna class up your act a little bit without breaking the bank, guys - this is a good place to stop. It's a little bit rockabilly, a little bit Mad Men, and a little bit Animal Collective. Enjoy.

I like this place! The selection is really carefully chosen and the interior decorating is pretty…read moregorgeous. Hampden doesn't really have any other mens clothing stores (except thrift shops) so its a great addition to the neighborhood. Think of it like the sister...er..brother store to Double Dutch. Sixteen Tons also carries other man-gifts like wallets, cologne, belts, ties, hats, etc. The clothing can be quite pricey, depending on the item, but I did recently notice a sale bin! It's difficult for me to get my boyfriend to step into an actual store, or buy something vintage ("If its used, should it be cheaper?"), so its best that I come here alone and bring back what he doesn't want. I always end up asking a bunch of questions when I'm here- usually about sizing. When the owner is in the shop, he is warm and super friendly and helpful. There is another employee who always seems annoyed that I have the nerve to ask about an item; I really can't take that type of attitude. Customer service, man! I'm hesitant to dock Sixteen Tons a star because of this one guy's attitude. The owner has true vision and really caters to his clientele. He has helpful tips (more ties coming in next week!), good suggestions (how about a cool vintage belt for the guy who has everything?) and asks the right questions to really try to understand who you're buying for. He should pass these skills on to his employees!

This review is more about some of the new extras they now have available at the shop. I am a big fan of Baxter Men's products and grooming tools. CSC now has almost all of them in stock at the shop so I no longer need to go online to have them sent to me. I've tried moisturizers, beard cream, pomade, custom combs and the fragrance soap bars! SO if you want to not only look good, but also smell and feel good definitely remember to check out that option!

I had a great experience making my purchase and then my suit had a manufacturer's defect. I brought…read moreit back to the shop and the owner told me that, though it looked like a defect, she had no metric by which to trust I had properly cared for the suit. I explained my level of care, to which she reprimanded "I TELL EVERYONE NOT TO USE THE SWIMSUIT SPINNER." I replied that she had not, in fact, informed me. She then pointed to care instructions taped on the counter which I read carefully and pointed out that they mentioned nothing about the spinner at all - good or bad. She said my only recourse was to call the manufacturer myself. She provided the number and I called from in store. The TYR rep asked me the store name, and when I said Cy's she stated "they are a great customer, why aren't they helping you with this?" I repeated that I didn't understand why myself, but that was the situation. I was then told I needed to provide photos and proof of purchase. When I asked the owner to provide proof of purchase (we easily located my purchase in the system and it was less than 1 year old) she told me she didn't know how to do it. She printed a blurry screenshot and told me that was the best she could do. I then looked at the system and found the place to reprint a receipt. TYR was great - they reviewed the photos, immediately determined it was a defect, and sent me a replacement at no charge. I chose Cy's specifically because it was locally owned and (I thought) stood behind their product. I will never shop there again nor recommend it to a friend. This probably does not matter to them as, in the repeated words of the owner "we outfit dozens of swim teams," but the absence of customer service afforded to me as a customer with a defective item as well as the punitive exclamations were appalling and inexcusable.
