Yes but it was 50 degrees out for most of the week of hunting. Took it off. Too warm.

Yep. Have 2 - an orange and a gray. Leaving for Pa in about 30 mins. Supposed to be 1-3" snow for the next 3-4-5 days and lows in the teens. Or perfect SK weather!

Not yet in Alabama but Monday I will be hunting in Ohio. Cold weather predicted so I will be sporting mine. Its a spanking new one as well. I sent the company a email last year reporting that my blaze orange Kromer faded Badly. On its own it faded. Just like the color evaporated. They sent me another one complementary. I’m guessing this one will do the same thing.

Which one? Have four now. Added a waxed blaze orange one this season. Also have an orange wool, a green with brown flaps, and a rancher. Wore the shabby green one for the opener, as my head is what moves the most on stand, and I don’t want to wave a bright flag. Doesn’t often get cold enough for that rancher, but when it is, it's the beans. I have a hard time keeping any knit hat on my old, fat head….

I carry mine in my pack and switch to it after I get where I'm going. It's an old wool, chocolate brown one with "zebra" looking fur inside the fold down ear flap. I hesitate to ascertain it's age. It was given to me by a dear friend a few years ago. It's a great hat.

Over the last 2 weeks of elk sesason, it wasn't all that cold (15 at the coldest and that for only 1 night), but the wind was brutal. I wore it constantly.

I have 2 of them. A waxed cotton wool lined for around the hood and a blaze orange with the fold down ear flaps for hunting.

I've got two of them and can't find either, or any of my other hunting clothes. I just moved and everything is packed in boxes and I haven't unearthed the correct boxes yet.... And the freakin' boxes ARE marked....  My stuff is scattered from Hell to breakfast....

I pretty much live in mine. I adopted it during chemo when I had no hair. Two years on, and it still does a great job of regulating my body temp. ![[Linked Image from genesis9.angzva.com]](https://genesis9.angzva.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/20211225_193928-scaled.jpg)

I only have four of them. Most recent is the waxed version that I wore last week during a drizzly day and walk with the dog. Will wear the basic black one tomorrow as temps here are now in the teens with wind chills down in the single digits.

Mine comes down right to my ears. That's great except....it keeps hitting the up volume button my hearing aids. They keep getting louder.
