Frequently Asked Questions

The Waxed Rancher Cap is water-resistant, not waterproof. Its paraffin-treated waxed cotton shell sheds rain and snow in most conditions, but because the seams aren't sealed, it's not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
The Waxed Rancher Cap offers warmth comparable to the Rancher Cap. Instead of Thinsulate™, it uses Lamilite® insulation in the crown along with the same extended, fleece-lined earbands.
Choose the Waxed Rancher Cap if you expect wet conditions. Its paraffin-treated waxed cotton shell sheds rain and wet snow while developing a distinctive weathered look over time. If you prefer the classic look and feel of wool, choose the Rancher Cap.
Yes. The Waxed Rancher Cap's extended earbands fully cover your ears and provide added protection at the back of the neck, making it a great choice for cold, wet, and windy conditions.
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.
Spot clean with cold water whenever possible. If needed, use a gentle castile soap. Avoid hot water, laundry detergent, and dish soap, as they can damage the waxed finish. Over time, you may need to rewax your cap to restore its water resistance. We offer wax tins for that purpose.

Just right when the north wind is blowing on those cold days we have here in Oklahoma. I ranch for a living so it never gets too cold or too hot to shut me down. Failure is not an option, and this hat helps make my job more bearable during the winter. My ranch may have a thread bare look but by gum I wear a Stormy Kromer!!!

I’m very impressed with all of SK’s hats and this one does not disappoint either! Well made and fits great. Craftsmanship is superior. My head is a 7-1/8 measurement and the 7-1/8 fits snug but comfortable and the 7-1/4 is perfect. Great product!

Very nice hat! Great quality and to top it all off, Lamilite insulation! Hands down the best insulation on the market that is rarely used by companies! So glad to see Stormy incorporating it in there product line. Would like to see more options with it. Maybe swap original rancher with laminate, less bulk and a lot warmer than thinsulate. The Stormy crew does a great job and thank you all for your hard work! Merry Christmas!

I was expecting a nice comfortable hat. I received a hat that is quite uncomfortable. The hat band feels like headband is of metal and cardboard. If all SK hats are made this way, it will be my first and last. ---Hi Robert, Thank you for reaching out to SK. We are sorry you aren't happy with the fit of your cap. We are more than happy to accept a return or exchnage on this cap if you'd like. For further instructions, we are here to help via email [email protected] or phone (888) 455-2253 Mon-Fri 8-5. SK----
