Melin Mill Visions
Really liking the color choices and new designs of these Melin Mill Vision hats. Fortunately or unfortunately, they cost $150 since they are made of premium materials. And for that, I am passing on these great looking hats.

Melin’s Need for Speed
Melin is at it again, this time tapping into the Top Gun motif. Their latest hat features the need for speed.
I’m really on the fence with this one. Firstly, I don’t need another Melin hat. Secondly, the logo has the Top Gun feels, but I’m just not totally feeling the MELIN name. Or maybe it’s the checkered flags? I like the blue color and the dot camo design, but that logo needs some tweaks. Or maybe offer a similar hat just without the logo similar to this camo Compass Hydro?
Making a Melin Collection
And… we’re off! A collection of Melin hats is now building, starting with this Odysea Hydro from the Yellow Jacket collection. Since this is a collaboration, the cost of the hat is $10 higher, but Hawaii residents are in luck.
If you shop at a Melin store in Waikiki, Maui, or Kauai, Hawaii residents get a kamaaina discount of 10%. Looks like I’ll be frequenting Waikiki a little more often now…
Melin Supports Hawaii
Melin definitely has some love for Hawaii. On a bigger scale, they’re supporting relief efforts from recent flooding with direct donations and also proceeds of sales from the Islands Collection.
On a smaller, personal scale, the local Melin stores offer kamaaina discounts of 10%. Since prices online and in-store are the same, this is a solid discount if you can make it to one of the locations in Waikiki, Maui, or Kauai.
Melin Limited Islands Collection
Melin has publicly released their Islands Collection hats in the sand camo color way. This limited edition collection is in support of Hawaii communities affected by the recent erratic Kona Low weather conditions that led to flooding across the state. A portion of each sale from the Islands Collection will go to the Lahui Foundation and Hawai’i Foodbank.
With the Limited lines, once the inventory is gone, that’s it. Usually, there won’t be any restocks or reprints so get yours today!
I Am a Melon Head
…and maybe a future Melin head. After hearing the Pickleball Studio mention their love of hats by Melin, I went online to research. They sure have a lot of variations, models, and design combinations – almost overwhelmingly too many.
I literally stopped looking through their web site after seeing all the products. It would be easier if I could see their hats in real life to help figure out which shape would work best for my melon. Then this melon head wondered where Melin was sold. I used the Melin store locator and found a bunch of vendors in Hawaii, including a brand store in Waikiki. Even HIC and Nordstrom sells some Melin products, so I’ll be making a visit to see what makes Melins so good.
Liking these color designs but $80+.
