The company has broadened its product line beyond caps to include broader outdoor and casual apparel, and has launched a Pet Products Collection in 2019 and a Collegiate Cap Collection in 2025 featuring 18 Midwest universities. In January 2026, Stormy Kromer attended a Winter Olympics-related event to support Olympic athlete Jessie Diggins. These developments indicate ongoing product diversification and a continuing public presence within American sporting and regional communities.
