I picked up the Melin Odyssey Hydro Cap from RockPorch at TravelCon 2025. It has been an incredible find ever since. I’ve taken it hiking, roadtripping, camping, and to the beach. This ballcap feels much lighter than others I’ve worn. It packs down flat and barely takes any space in your bag, which is perfect for backpacking.
The hydro cap design holds up well when things get sweaty or rainy. It sheds water, dries fast, and never stays soggy. I liked wearing it while hiking, canoeing, and even while fishing by the lake. The fit stays comfortable all day, and you can toss it in your pack or clip it to a bag without thinking twice.
If you’re planning a trip outdoors and want something easy to bring along, the Melin Odyssey Hydro Cap is solid. It does what you need without any fuss. Give it a try if you like ballcaps that go wherever you do.
Water-repellent, buoyant, and breathable, the melin Odyssey Stacked Hydro hat was engineered with a hydrophobic technology on the crown panels designed to bead away water and prevent absorption.
