    Ah, bummer! I just drove to Leadville from Denver specifically to pick up a Melly for myself. I'll let you know if I am heading back up there for any reason. Would be happy to pick one up for you if I do. I didn't want to wait until April/May either

    Have you tried contacting the mountaineering store in Leadville? I forget its name, even though I know one of the ladies working there (Meagan L, an AT thru hiker, met her husband on the AT, cool story). They carry lots of eclectic stuff, I'd be surprised if they did carry Mellanzana stuff.

    Funny the timing on your post; we've overnighted/climbed Elbert every MLK weekend starting in 2002, excepting 2007 and this year, always breakfasting in Leadville on Saturday, dinner Sunday night, could have stopped by the M factory Sat. morning.

    What size are you looking for? I went there last week and grabbed a few micro hoodies. Might have a mens medium left.

    I'll be back at the end of Aug. Last person I talk to that was in the store said it was rather empty, only 3-4 microgrid hoodies, all XL.

    It doesn't have a pocket. The pocket is one of the main reason people want a Melly.

    Well, maybe Saltysack is OK with no pocket?
    I'm prolly gonna pull the trigger on a men's large. Looks like a good deal for a USA made grid hoodie.

    If someone does not want a pocket there is no real reason to try to get a melly. That is what separates it from the others.

    The answer is it would be inaccessible for hip-belt users. Would be a nice feature for in camp use however.
