The Waxed Cotton Cap

Absolutely love this cap! Wear it all the time!

Got my cap, the other five are wool, on a Friday. It rained for the next two days, couldn't have had a better test and it came thru with flying colors. Wondered how long I could wear it before changing to the wool. Had a volunteer outing with the Boys Scouts cleaning up yards for the seniors at 17 degrees in the morning and it worked out fine. I have never recorded a cap , but I will with this one because I wouldn't want to be without a waxed cotton. We now have three generations wearing Stormy Kromer Caps.

I have several SK hats and this one met all expectations. It fits great, is warm, and keeps my head dry during the rainy months in the pacific NW.

i have the dark oak, love it! every hat is like a fingerprint, slightly different, so try several on before taking one home. i am now the proud owner of 4 sk hats with this one being my 1st. if i had to give a complaint about the waxed cotton it would be that it is very hot when doing any physical labor. my advice...put on the hat, crack a beer, go outside, and sit around a campfire when the snow is falling. good times. chad from green bay wi

Just the right amount of warmth for me. Very comfortable, I wear it 9 months of the year. I think it looks and feels better with age.

I have a black and tan waxed cotton. Love them. Super comfortable and breaths very well. Any chance of making this cap in a brimless model? Scott in Duluth

If you are going to have one, the waxed cotton are the ones to pick, they work in all weather. I have the Field Tan, it's a little darker than in the photo, to the good though. I also have the original in red plaid wool that I wear in very cold weather, also outstanding. I have more hats than I will ever need but these two caps from SK get more use than any of the ones that now spend more time with moth balls than on my head, SK makes great hats. I usually wear a 7 3/8 but bought the 7 1/2 as it was more comfortable so, I would make the recommendation to all who buy or order one to get the next size above what they normally purchase for the best fit. Other than that, it's all good. Thanks for an excellent product. Gary in Frederick, Maryland.

There was a guy below who rated this hat one star and said it needed ventalation. Uhmmmm, Ok, this is a waxed hat targeted for keeping one's head dry in the rain, so if it were to have ventilation, it would not be the hat it is targeted to be, and the person wearing it would get wet. If you need a ventilated hat, then it isn't raining, and you may want to choose one of the non waxed summer style ball caps from SK. They do offer summer style hats too! This hat right here is for cooler, wet weather. Just Sayin'.

Best hat I've ever owned! I bought it primarily for hunting upland birds afield, but now wear it all the time!
