“I have been wearing baseball caps for decades and usually wear the run-of-the-mill $30.00 cap purchased at several different outlets. My "standards" for baseball caps were mediocre at best considering the "BEST" you could buy were manufactured by the same three manufacturing companies. You got, there mediocre, cheap and cheap as S#!* . Melin has RAISED the bar, phenomenally! Each hat is superbly made and stylish and just feels good to wear a hat that doesn't get stained from my brow ! I can't wear anything else !”
“As a cancer survivor, I need coverage. Bought this hat based on the description and they weren’t wrong. This might be the best coverage in and out of the water. Washable from salt water. Resistant to the chlorine. Durable AF. You need coverage? You need this hat. Worth the extra few bucks. I am now a loyal customer. For life.”
“The craftsmanship on these hats is top notch. There's a high attention to detail on all the stitching, fabrics/materials used, etc.
After about a month of use I did have an issue where a sweat stain was becoming permanent on the hat. The rest of the hat still looked great, so I reached out to Melin on the best way to get rid of the stain. They responded immediately (on a Sunday), and had already sent me a replacement hat, which I definitely wasn't expecting. So if you do end up getting a lemon, their great customer service will step in and take care of you.”
“Ruins all other hats for me. My dome goes 7 3/4 pro fit and most hats I find are made for 12 year old boys. This man’s hat is comfortable, stylish, and arrives packaged like a Hermes bag. I’m not only saying to buy one, I’ve given Santa the green light to write me up for a lid every year.”
“Fit, function, craftsmanship and style are all absolutely dialed! I have a slightly taller crown to my head and this hat fits perfect. Took a hot minute to break it in to my unique head shape, but it's been awesome since. Ordering a couple more to rotate.”
“I just ran the Cape Fear 51 Miler by Badwater in North Carolina with my Trenches Icon Heather Ocean hat on the whole time. It's my favorite hat, and it definitely held up for 13 1/2 hours of running with headwinds, 40 miles in the sand, and all types of crazy. Still looks awesome, same as when I ran the Nanny Goat 100 Miler last May in 27 hours. These melin hats, especially Trenches, are my go-to for my gnarliest adventures. Thanks, melin!”
