The Rancher Cap

Looking forward to wearing it next winter

My 5th stormy kromer hat. They perform as advertised. Super warm and stay on your head no matter where you wear them. This is my 2nd ranchers model and by far the warmest one for skiing and hunting in the extreme cold weather. I highly recommend them to anyone who spends time outdoors in cold climates.

Love the style hat and quality construction. Only negative is the sizing of the hats are not true. Had to return the hat and upsize twice to get proper fit. I normally wear a 7 3/8 fitted hat and finally settled on a 7 5/8 to get a proper fit. Stormy needs to correct this issue of sizing. ~~ Good morning, We are sorry to hear you had some issues with sizing. Our styles can fit a little different, especially our Rancher Cap. Due to the extra layer of insulation, some folks do size up. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to reach out, we'd love to chat via email or phone. SK~~

I’ve never had a cap made for cold weather. I live in Louisiana. We’ll be visiting some northern climes in the coming years.

This was the cap I was meant to wear on my Yellowstone in winter trip. I first bought an Original Kromer (Order SO10066561) 1/25/24. Upon field testing I found it didn't adequately protect my ears from wind and cold. I contacted customer service who recommended the Rancher Cap in one size smaller. I placed that order 2/9/24 (SO10068044), but, alas, it didn't arrive before my trip. I've since worn it on a cold, windy day and found it protects my ears well and have got compliments on it. I saw a number of Yellowstone guides wearing Stormy Kromers.

The hat comes in a nice box with the Stormy Kromer logo on it, and the hat inside is wrapped in a classy tissue paper also with the logo on it. The minute you take the hat out of the box you can feel the quality, and of course see it. I used a sewing type measuring tape and measured my noggin as instructed. This I did multiple times and came up with 23 inches. The sizing chart suggested a 7 3/8 and the fit is perfect. Being from the west I wasn't exposed to Stormy Kromer products. But I'm glad I've found them now! The hat looks great in a kind of retro way, it's built old school (like a tank) and it keeps my head toasty warm..and my ears also when needed. I highly recommend this hat and have no doubts it will last for many years. Thank you Stormy Kromer for manufacturing a great high quality product right here in the USA!!!

I bought an original,love wanted 2 ranchers for bow hunting and fishing and firearms deer hunting,so I bought the Ottawa, for bow hunting and winter fishing and blaze orange for firearms deer hunting fit great look good I'll be the talk,of the woods this season,and the game will say look out,for the guy in the orange kromer

Absolutely love this hat, warm, comfortable, love the added neck and ear warmth… quality product

My second Kromer cap was a Charcoal Rancher. Not only does it look good, it’s also practical and beneficial for those cold temps. A friend/co-worker of mine whose name is Frank introduced me to Kromer caps. We used to do maintenance work in minus 10 degree freezers. I told him “Don’t you wish we’d had our Rancher Kromers back then?”
