This water-repellent, 100% cotton ripstop cap can do it all. It keeps you dry when it's rainy and cool when it's sunny. Our signature pulldown earband will protect your ears from sunburn at midday and falling temps at dusk. The perfect spring and summer companion.

I hike in the woods where bugs and gnats can be a real problem. This hat compliments my hooded bug-repellant wind breaker hood perfectly. The bill provides the shade without making my head hot. When the bug netting is needed, it keeps it out of my face without requiring a bulkier hat.
Somewhat disappointed with this cap. Crown is too tall and falls down on my ears. I prefer shallow crowns but it seems like every cap I buy has a different crown height. Not consistent production standards. Sizing also seems to vary among hats (i.e not all 7-1/4's fit the same). ~ Hi Dave, We're sorry to hear that the Trail cap didn't meet your expectations. We'd like to discuss this further, please feel free to send our CS team an email at [email protected]. SK~
appears to be thin nylon with mesh liner. I am disappointed with it. Not a real StormyKromer in my opinion. ~ Hi Dale, Our Trail Cap is a 100% ripstop with washable wax and the inner lining is a nylon/spandex mesh lining. This cap is geared towards warmer months, as wool can be a little warm for some folks. We're sorry this cap wasn't for you. We are happy to accept an exchange or return as long as the item is new/unworn with tags attached within 90 days of purchase. SK ~
Review of Stormy Kromer Trail Cap My recent purchase of a Stormy Kromer Trail Cap completes a trifecta of perfect hats. Perfect in more ways than one. I now have all 4 seasons covered with three hats. My first Stormy Kromer hat was your Original wool hat, and is my winter go to hat. Next I purchased a Waxed Cotton Cap which I use for Spring and Fall rainy and windy days. Now I have the Summer covered with my light weight Trail Cap. I would like to explain why they are the perfect choice for me. I have two Cochlear Implants, which allow me to hear. Cochlear implants are like hearing aids with a behind-the-ear processor to bring in the sound, but they attach to the side of my head with a round magnet about the size of a quarter. The thickness of the magnets on both sides of my head makes fitting a hat correctly a very precise thing. (The sizing guide and the included measuring tape gave me the perfect size.) The hat’s unique pull-down over the ears flap solves two unique problems I encounter frequently. First is the sound on a windy day makes it impossible to hear outside. I only hear the wind and not someone talking. The ear flap blocks the wind and still allows me to hear people. The second problem is the rain. Even a drop of rain falling on the microphone of the processor can “short it out,” and then I am completely deaf until I can dry out the processor. This has happened several times when I ventured out in the rain without proper protection. And, of course, the visor of the hat blocks the glare from the sun, which has been more of a problem since my cataract surgery. Trifecta of problems: wind, rain, and sun. Solved by a trifecta of perfect hats: Original wool, Waxed Cotton Cap, and Trail Cap. Thank you, Stormy Kromer!
This hat matches the fit and style of my wool Kromer but is lighter and cooler for the summer time heat! It’s pretty light so you hardly even feel it on your head while wearing it !
Excellent workmanship, real light weight, easy to forget u have it on, even inside!
Great hat Very comfortable fits like my wool kromers great for warm temps light colors will be cooler
I am a happy owner of an original Stormy Kromer wool cap. But as I live in Texas, I was looking for a warmer weather alternative. Very happy with the fit and workmanship of my new cap.
Well my son always wanted one of your hats so for his birthday I got him one... he absolutely loves it!!! He is huge into hiking and is in love with it!!
