High dollar hat

I remember seeing the advertisements on social media for melin hats. Price was crazy, no way! Until I tried one on at my local surf shop. That was a couple of years ago now. That same hat looks like I just bought it. It's white. I give it a good scrubbing every couple of months. It's a hydro, it can handle the wet. I h…

Hat is great! Customer Service is even better...

Had forgotten my melin at home as we headed out to vacation. Went to the melin store in Poipu, Kauai, and had the opportunity to choose from a variety of hats. I have two of these same hats at home, so I got another color I loved. Given the hat's quality, the customer service at the Poipu storefront was just as good, i…

melin Odysea Stacked Hydro — GearJunkie review

But this spring, GearJunkie Affiliate Managing Editor Billy Brown hit me up to test some hats — I’m assuming because he noticed I was always wearing one on our weekly video conferences. It was a brand called melin. He told me to hop on the site and pick a few out.

melin Odysea Stacked Hydro — GearJunkie review

Excuse the French, but GTFOH was my initial thought when I saw the hats’ prices. They wanted dang near $100 for a baseball hat. That was absurd. But I had a job to do, and told Billy what I wanted. I planned on ripping melin a new one.

What's better for a beach trip: the melin A-Game Icon Hydro or a regular baseball cap?

For a beach trip, the melin A-Game Icon Hydro is a much better option. Its hydrophobic technology means it won't get soaked and heavy from sea spray or sweat, and it actually floats if it falls in the water. A regular cap would likely just get waterlogged and uncomfortable.

Is the melin A-Game Icon Hydro good for someone who sweats a lot during workouts?

Yes, the melin A-Game Icon Hydro is designed with performance in mind, which includes managing sweat. The breathable materials and hydrophobic technology help keep moisture at bay, and the antimicrobial sweatband (a common melin feature) prevents odor and discomfort, making it a good choice for workouts.

Anyone have experience with melin hats in really hot, humid weather? Do they breathe well?

I've worn my melin HYDRO cap on some pretty hot and humid days, and they do a decent job of breathing. The materials are designed to wick moisture, and the perforated panels on some models really help with airflow. They feel much better than a standard cotton cap when you're sweating.

Thinking about getting a melin hat, but are they worth the price compared to cheaper brands?

From what I've seen and heard, melin hats are generally considered worth the investment if you value premium quality and performance. People often mention that the durability, comfort, and unique features like water repellency and floatability justify the higher price point compared to mass-market brands.
