Melin Thermal Eagle Waxed Hat

Waxed cotton canvas meets Melin's most packable shape in the Melin Thermal Eagle Waxed Hat. The unstructured, crushable crown sits low and relaxed, while the waxed finish sheds drizzle and a brushed flannel lining adds warmth. It's a workwear-inspired cap you can stuff in a jacket pocket and pull back out without a second thought.

Why we like it:

The Eagle crushes flat and springs back. Pairing that travel-friendly shape with rugged waxed canvas makes a cap that gets better the more you knock it around.

Features and Functions:

Start with the shape: the Eagle has an unstructured crown and a shallow, low-profile fit that Melin calls its most packable. Melin's Wax'd Thermal fabric is waxed cotton canvas from Halley Stevensons, a long-running British mill, and water beads right off it. A brushed flannel lining keeps the chill out, a Nappa leather strapback handles adjustment, and a hidden besom pocket rides inside.

Fit and Sizing:

Shallow and low-profile with an unstructured, crushable crown, so it sits higher and looser than Melin's deeper shapes. Check Melin's size chart before ordering.

Bottom Line:

Great for travelers and truck-bed types who want a warm, weather-shedding cap that survives being crammed in a bag.
