- WHY IS IT EXPENSIVE?
A Stunning Rain Hat.
Exaggerated brim, adjustable crown, and statement straps.
You will be stopped on the street at least three times wearing this. And then you'll get to let people know this isn't just a fashion statement - it's incredibly eco-friendly.
All hats are unique and may not be the exact piece of the pattern that is shown in images. But it will of course be created from the exact pool pattern indicated. This is the nature of One Of A Kind (OOAK) production.
One (wo)man's trash is another (wo)man's couture.
We've been collecting used pools to give our beautiful material a second life. In partnership with Studio Howard & Portland Garment Factory we've created the most beautiful waterproof accessories for everyday life.
Some companies claim that their inflatable pools are recyclable (or even compostable), but that is not actually so great. Most plastics never end up being recycled, and those that are still create quite a bit of waste in the process. So we've been taking back pools our customers no longer want to keep them out of landfills, with the dream of one day turning them into something beautiful to continue their use.
It takes a lot to keep materials out of the landfill. That's why so few people do it.
First, we have to ship the pools back to HQ. Then we have to store them. Then we have to get them to PGF. Then we have to deconstruct the pools and clean them thoroughly. And then we sew them into something entirely new.
And it's completely worth it. Thank you for valuing it.

From Pool to OOAK
Pool
Your Mylle OOAK item starts as a pool - what you know and love us for.
Concepting
Then we worked with Studio Howard to bring the idea from dream to pattern & production plan.
Deconstruction
Then the pools are sent to PGF to deconstruct - no small task.
Cleaning
It takes teamwork to make sure there is no outdoor residue on the large swaths of material.
Cut & Sew
Now we're back to where more products start and the team at PGF begins to to cut and sew our material.
Et Voila
And now you have a gorgeous Mylle One Of A Kind Piece. Easy.
