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.

    My son who recently moved to the North East, gave me this cap for Christmas. The original size was too small so I made an exchange. The up size fit well but snugly. I loved the materials, construction and design of the cap. It is a great piece of equipment. It does help keep the noggin warm when cold outside. I would recommend one to a friend. If I were altering the design at all, I would make it adjustable at least in measure. It is a great little cap. 4Certain Little Rock, AR

    We had 12 inches of snow, overnight, snd temps in the 20s. I kept very warm wearing my new cap when I went outside this morning. It was my 3rd cap purchase. I highly recommend moth the original and Ranch style caps that I have worn for years, including gor hunting.

    Looks very nice, but I should have taken their advice and ordered one size up from my usual hat size. I had to return it for exchange, but Im looking forward to wearing it.

    I have been wearing Stormy Kromer for over 10 year. I have to say the first hat I bought was great. I just recieved my new hattoday. My first impression is that it looks and feels cheap. This new hat is much thinner and lighter than my first. overall I am very disappointed and would gladly pay more to get back the same quality hat I bought years ago. ~ Hi David, We're sorry to hear you aren't happy with your purchase.

    Out here in So Cal this cap will be warm enough. Got the Adirondack Plaid which is a nice subtle color. Re: sizing. I'm normally a 7 1/2" to 7 5/8" so first ordered a 7 1/2" per customer reviews and way too snug. Even the second order of 7 5/8' is a bit tight, but sticking with it. You don't want a hat worn for warmth to be blowing off in a stiff breeze. Two hats are a small sample size but I'd say order large...and btw, loosening the tie string did not make the hat relax at all for me, as some have written.
