Review on Stay Dry And Cool With Melin A-Game Hydro Performance Snapback Hat - Water-Resistant Baseball Cap For Men & Women by Chris Budenski

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very Picky Hat guy; Future Melin Fanatic

I am a super picky hat guy, I have a small head and on top of that its shaved. Most hats are designed for people with hair so there's a lot of excess airspace above my head typically. This hat while it comes in Small still has the same height profile as a regular hat. So while it fits my head perfect in circumference it still a bit too tall for my head to fill the front of the hat. It could be just how they style their hats since the front of the hat has a pocket on the inside. If my head did fill this space I image I couldn't use the pocket.While I have these gripes so to say, I am actually super happy with it. The side profile of the hat is perfect and while the front is tall for my liking it doesn't come off bad. I did try the Melin Odyssey before the A Game and It was a little too point for my preference but its a good cross between a typical trucker and a baseball cap.As for the quality, its the best I have ever seen. I go through hats every 4-6 months. After a while of washing them from sweat from the South Texas heat or the salt of the beach they break down very quickly. I look forward to seeing how this handles its but I haven't seen anything with this type of fabric and thickness of material and typically the only hat that handles sweat stains are hiking hats that are designed to get wet. Still those tend get wrinkles and begin to lose their form.Overall I am loving the hat, the fit, the quality. Maybe a few months from now I'll come back and append my review with whatever arises but right now I am thinking I will be a life long Melin hat wearer from now on.TLDR;-Amazing quality-Good for small bald heads-A little taller than a typical baseball hat or dad hat-I am gonna buy more
