- The Melanzana Micro Grid hoodie is nearly impossible to get, but the Burgeon Highlander hoodie is available right now. Is it worth your dollars? Yes. Yes, it is.
Why do I hate the Melly? I hate it because you either have to make an appointment and go to the store in Colorado, or buy it at a ridiculous markup on Ebay. It's just not available for most people.
The Burgeon Highlander hoodie, on the other hand, is available to order from their website. They have great customer service. And they make their garments at the store in Lincoln, NH. You can go see them sew the hoodie if you visit this part of the world.
I am not affiliated with Burgeon, but I do love their products, and I love supporting local companies. Check them out here: tinyurl.com/Hi...
