Stormy Kromer hat

[BigP]

Does anyone hunt with a Stormy Kromer wool hat? What do you think?

[wooddamon1]

I sometimes do, but I usually have it on backwards to shoot. Great hat for cold in general.

[K.S.TRAPPER]

I always do, have two of them and wear them all winter long not just hunting. Never have to turn mine around to shoot and I shoot longbows, never been a problem.

 Hands down the most comfortable hat I've ever worn and several friends and family have gone to them after trying mine. I could post bunches of picks but since PB is holding them hostage I can't right now. Sorry!

They are very comfortable and I have two.  I don’t wear them much because they are too warm most of the year and in cold weather they don’t keep the ears warm.

[Steve Jr]

I have a couple they keep your head warm. I also have a classic Bowman hat that is very similar. I wear them to church and  just every day stuff this time of year.This summer I bought a coups cap from Two Tracks it is AWESOME and goes hunting with me , definitely keeps the ears warm. Plenty of options out there.

[joe ashton]

Absolutely love mine.

[Terry Lightle]

Best winter cap out there

Yep, worn that style for years.

[kadbow]

I have one with the short brim that works in cool temps, the classic bowmen hat is much warmer for cold temps in a similar style.

[Stickbow Sniper]

Yes. They look best with trad wool shirt or jacket as opposed to Realtree/Mossy Oak type camo.  They are good for cool weather, not warm or cold weather. I turn mine backwards before shooting but that will depend on your personal style and anchor point.

If you buy a Stormy Kromer I would suggest you get the rancher model.  It has bigger ear flaps and will keep your ears a lot warmer.    I’ve been out moving wood to my boiler this morning.  It’s 7 degrees with a 5 mph wind and my head and ears are warm as can be.

I have a few. The waxed canvas one is nice when it's damp out. The wool ones breathe better and are more comfortable. I can't shoot with them on though.

But.

I have two of the brimless ones and LOVE em. Fit good, low profile, and just warm enough without making your head sweat. It gets my pick for bowhunting

[-Zor]

Yes. But even with the short brim I have to turn it a bit sideways to clear the string.

[Vesty]

Nothing better in my opinion. I have two of the short brim models they used to sell. Why they stopped offering this option I'll never know, but a few complaints sent their way may get their attention.

[Wapiti Chaser]

I have sent in suggestions to bring back the short brim several times ... I did just pick up a pair of Stormy Kromer Grey wool pants for $20 at an antique store that are just like new . Love there stuff and I think the short brim would sell .

[Covey]

I’ve had one for couple years now. You wear one enough, they just kinda form to your head. Awesome, warm hats! I do need to turn mine around to shoot, but that’s not a problem.

[BUCK-EYE]

i bought one a few years ago from the factory in Ironwood. We where on our annual hunt in the U P and made the trip west. I love the it, I wear it for hunting and around the house in the winter.  i have to turn it backwards when shooting.

[Ron LaClair]

I've been wearing Stormy Kromers for years, in fact at one time I sold them in my shop. I've got a big noggin and Kromers go as big as an 8 size.... Great cap

   

[JusAGuy]

Ron are you sportin' a new wooly design there?

I've not seen that one on your site...(or Fred's either for that matter).

[Ron LaClair]

I'm wearing the new Asbell wool bibs and zippered jacket. The jacket also has a hood. The gray wool matches the gray in my Stormy Kromer.

Teresa hasn't got that picture on her website  because she said she hasn't got the jacket ready to go yet.
