George "Stormy" Kromer, tired of losing hats to the winter wind, implored wife Ida to sew earflaps on a wool cap from his semi-pro baseball days. Thus the classic, flaps-up-or-tied-down natty cap was born in 1903. In wool with a bit of nylon; cotton lined. Still handmade in the USA. Dry clean. S, M/L, XL.
