Join us for an exclusive behind-the-scenes experience at Stormy Kromer, where tradition meets innovation in American-made apparel. We'll kick off with a guided tour of the facility, followed by a fireside-style chat with Gina Thorsen, President and CEO, as she shares the company’s rich history, values, and journey to becoming a beloved heritage brand.

You’ll also hear firsthand from team members across key areas—including Sewing & Design Production, Manufacturing Support, Purchasing, Sales, and Marketing—to gain a deeper understanding of the craftsmanship and collaboration that power Stormy Kromer.

After the tour and discussion, enjoy time to shop at the Stormy Kromer Store, featuring the full line of iconic caps, apparel, and accessories. Be sure to check out the amazing deals on discontinued items and factory seconds (pro tip: most people can’t even find the flaws!).

Whether you're passionate about manufacturing, leadership, or simply love a great story of craftsmanship and community, this is a must-attend event.

We can't wait to see you there!
