I have an original in Ottawa that I wear most everyday from Oct thru March, along with a Rancher in Ottawa that I only wear 5 or 6 times a winter. Then there is an original in Indigo for going to town. Build a Midway in Ottawa and I will own a Midway!

I have both an original Stormy Kromer and the Rancher model. The first fits great but has limited warmth and almost no ear coverage. The latter is super warm and has good ear coverage but is oversized and puffy. It looks ridiculous until the temperature is -20, at which point standards change. The midway is the most useful for cold mornings in New Mexico, for which ear coverings are often necessary but the oversize bulk of the Rancher is too much. Same great quality fit and materials as the others.

I have 5 originals, and 2 Ranchers, but this is hands down "the best design" EVER from them! It's the original without the short flawed ear flap system. This one has ear flaps that actually COVERS your whole ear! Not as bulky as a Rancher or as heavy. Great looks, very warm even at -5 below. Best ever. Only complaint: wish it came in some hunting colors? Red/Black or the old Green / Black??? Absolute favorite cap.

Awesome hat, fits well, keeps my Bald Head Warm!!

at first i thought the string bow in the front was silly, but after wearing the hat, on a cold morning day. it was very warm, the ear flaps were very welcome. its a great piece of cold weather gear, sadly as it warmed up in the day i found it far to warm.

Warmest hat I’ve ever had!!!

This hat is awesome! Looks great fits great! Very well made , seems like it’s gonna be with me for the long long haul!

I've always loved the style and functionality of the original Kromer cap, but some times the ear flaps just didn't fit the intensity of the wind. This Midway Cap does the trick for those wintry winds though!

This hat reminds me of my first Kromer where the sides pulled down for your ears.
