Review on Winter Wool Hat With Earflap - Stormy Kromer'S Original Kromer Cap For Ultimate Comfort And Style by Tommy Woods

I watched the movie "Rascal" 1969 for the first time the other day. Its set in the 1920's and the main character (A kid) was wearing one of these hats in the last scene of the movie. I thought it looked neat and did some research into vintage cap styles eventually discovering the hat was called a Stormy Kromer! Im from Texas and had never seen this style of cap before. I measured my head and ordered my very own Stormy Kromer in the "red pine" style. $50 is the most Ive ever spent on a hat but Im very happy with the design and build quality.Material - According to the tag, the cap is made of 80%wool, 20%nylon, and has a cotton flanel lining on the inside. The wool was important to me personally because I wanted it to be somewhat warm.Design - The ear flap is sewn to the cap so it will never fall or sag down by accident. The flap isnt very thick or plush so it blocks wind but doesnt block hearing. I could see this being beneficial when hunting. Normally when I hunt I avoid covering my ears but I think this ear flap would be ok. The tightness of the ear flap is adjustable using the lace on the forehead. Its adjustable range is about 1 inch but the cap itself still needs to be the correct size for your noggin.Summary - Over all Im very happy with this cap and cant wait to wear it out. I like it so much Im planning on buying another in a different color. If you're hung up on the price, dont worry.Its worth it. Read below.Bonus: I didnt realize this until after I received the cap.The paperwork attached to the cap says it has a lifetime warranty and will be replaced if the stitching ever wears out. And if you loose the cap they will let you buy a replacement at 50% off! Now the $50 price tag doesnt seem so bad.
