“I previously bought the Merlin A Game Hydra in grey which fit great. It was the 58cm version. When I bought this Blue Merlin A Game hydra I purchased the CL because it didn’t give me an option for the 58cm version. I has a smaller head space and is not as comfortable as the 58cm”
“It’s the perfect fit (classic) and such a clean/minimalist style that you can’t go wrong with. Have the black and navy. Getting the charcoal gray and white as my next two.”
“High quality, eye-catching hat. The material is stiffer than most baseball caps, so the hat retains its shape and sits higher up front. The fabric is high quality too. The weather has been cool lately. I hope I like the hat as much as it gets hotter this summer.”
“My first Melin hat is good-to-great.
Fit/Comfort/Style: A+
Customer Service/Ordering: A+
Color: Undecided
When I wore my Melin with a navy blue shirt, the hat appeared lighter navy than the shirt. Perhaps the shirt needs to be washed more, or perhaps I should lose my hyper-sensitivity to matching colors.
Otherwise, I'm very satisfied and will consider more purchases.
See attached photo. And yes, I wear inexpensive George golf shirts with Melin caps. Perhaps that explains the disparity!

“Great for paddle boarding in bay or ocean. Solid construction.
Classic size fits my melon of almost 7-3/4" with 3-4 snaps closed.
If Melin ever makes a sized hat, no snapback, that would change the hat world.
What is idea of Besom pocket, what could fit in there?”
