There's a reason this cap is legendary. The wool blend resists the elements and the 100% cotton flannel lining helps keep you warm all winter. The ingenious pull-down earband provides comfort and flexibility. The six-panel construction keeps the cap on your head, where it belongs. And our wide range of sizes guarantees a great fit. No wonder it's lasted more than a century.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Use a soft tape measure to measure around your head where you like your hat to sit. Divide that measurement by 3.14 (π), then round up to the nearest 1/8. This is your Stormy Kromer hat size. If you don't have a tape measure, you can also use a piece of string and measure it against a ruler. Please remember that these hats generally do not stretch over time. If your measurement falls between sizes, or if you prefer a looser fit, we recommend sizing up.

  • The Original Stormy Kromer Cap is designed for cold-weather comfort, but how warm it feels depends on the person and the conditions. Wool provides natural warmth while remaining breathable, making it a great choice for cool to cold weather. If you regularly spend extended time outdoors in extreme cold, consider one of our insulated styles or hats with longer earbands for additional warmth.

  • No. The Original Stormy Kromer Cap is lined with soft cotton flannel, and the sweatband is made from a comfortable polycotton blend. The wool outer shell provides warmth and durability, while the materials against your skin are designed for everyday comfort.

  • Simply slide your thumb between the earband and the cap, then pull the earband down over your ears. There's no need to untie or unfold anything. When you're ready, just pull it back up into place for the classic Stormy Kromer look.

  • For most people, the Original Stormy Kromer Cap's earband covers about one-half to two-thirds of the ear. Because everyone's head shape and ear placement are different, coverage will vary. If you're looking for more coverage or added warmth in extreme cold, Stormy Kromer also offers styles with longer earbands and additional insulation.

  • Dry cleaning is the best way to care for your Original Stormy Kromer Cap. For small spills or stains, spot cleaning is often enough. If your cap gets wet from rain or snow, let it air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight. Never put your wool cap in the dryer, as the heat can cause it to shrink.

    I have had my stormy going on three years now, and I wear it every day of the winter. The only thing that I didnt like was that they only cover the tops of my ears, still leaving me cold on windy days. The fix, I bought the ranchers cap for the days that I should have stayed in. I am on the web ordering my nephew one for christmas, and I figured I would add a comment. This is the best winter hat I have ever had! -Todd

    Just a note to say how good The Stormy Kromer is. I have canser and they said to make sure in winter, I wear a hat. Went looking and found old stormy,who is about 29yrs old now. Works fine but wife says Ineed one not worn so bad,doesn't under stand comfort. Keep up the good work. -Dennis C. Rothgeb Sr.

    Love the cap, but I was a bit surprised by the writing embroidered across the back. I don't like wearing labels, I just wanted a good cap. The fit is great. -DGM

    I have the red original...wear it all the time in cold months. I asked for the hunter orange for XMAS. I took it to Northern Arizona...provided a few folks with the web site. Glad it is made in good ole Michigan...How about a light weight one for summer wear. -Dave

    I bought my Kromer to help keep the U.P. cold off my head. The wind can be blowing hard and the Kromer stays put. This is one of my favorite hats and it is a real treat knowing it is made in America. I'm going to get the Rancher next. Got to love the Kromer! -Frank Klemm

    Sure the girlfriend dropped the "Elmer Fudd" label on me when I picked up my orange Kromer up in Chippewa Falls on a Leinie's tour...but she also wasn't sitting next to me the opening morning of deer season either. She didn't complain when I stacked up some speed beef (venison) that same morning.I wouldn't think about trouncing in to the woods without the venerable .30-30, no way in h*ll would I go out without the Kromer either.Truth, justice, liberty, the American way, and a Stormy Kromer to wash it down with. Made in the USA baby! -Billy In Stoughton

    I got my first Stormy Kromer on the recommendation of a friend at work, he's worn them for years and is a big fan. Now I am a big fan also. What a great cap, well made, classy looking and warm. I live in Minnesota and believe me I can appreciate the value of warm clothing. I have a blue Original and a black Rancher on order which I can hardly wait to receive. Keep up the good work and the great tradition. -Tedd C.

    I finally got my hat in the mail, and I must say, "This is one fine cap." It is warm, practical and stylish to boot. The quality is top notch. Most caps may have a loose string here-or-there, but not the Kromer. The stitching is perfect. Trust me, this is one hat worth buying. (P.S. Please make sure of your size. I had to go through four hats to get one that fit me properly. I am not sure if this was due to a horrible measurement on my part, or if the Kromer runs a little funny. The people at Kromer made sure I got one that fit without having me order new ones over and over. They are very helpful and friendly.) -Matt C.
