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 worn my hat every day for a week now, and I love it. I don't think it is quite warm enough for extended outdoor wear in temperatures much below freezing, but it is great for poping out, running around on errands, and temperatures to just below freezing. Any colder and I think I might need something like the Rancher. My only criticism is that these hats have a high crown. Maybe I have a short head, but if I wear this like I wear a baseball cap it has lots of space above my head, to make it look better I generally wear it further back and tilted up a bit. That said, the extra space is nice for when I want to put the ear band down because there is room to actually put the top 1/3 of my ears in the hat. If S.K. came out with a similar model with a slightly shorter crown, it would be perfect IMO.

    My recent hats are as nice as my ten year old versions, but I do miss the Gortex, especially in Blaze Orange and Camo versions which will obviously be used for hunting.

    This is a replacement for one I have owned for years and I have been EXTREMELY happy with. My new one was a disappointment. The hat is visibly lighter having a combination of materials. 85% wool and 15% nylon. My old one is 80% wool 15% recycled fibers 5% "other fibers. I have worn the old one for many years. It has stood up well and has been very warm on hunts in northern Canada. It is old like me and needs to be retired. The difference in the 2 hats is significant enough so I will not be buying another Kromer. ~Sorry to hear the cap isn't what you expected. You can always return your cap within 90 days of purchase.
