A Ushanka (also known as Trapper hat, Aviator hat, Shapka, Chapka etc.) is a traditional, yet stylish, Russian Military winter hat with ear and back flaps that can be left tied up or come down to cover your ears and neck. It's extremely warm to handle the frigid Russian winters. Made entirely of soft faux fur. This material is very strong and durable. The hat is lined in quilted cotton. Such hats were first used by Russian troops during WW2 to help them survive cold Russian winters and they're still used by the Russian army today! Direct from the factory. Made in Russia. We have these in three colors such as Black, White and Silver with 5 sizes European size Western size 56 Medium; 58 Large; 60 X-Large; 62 XX-Large; and 64 XXX-Large. If they are too big or come too low just add some fabric or paper towel inside. All hats are shipped with a genuine Military Red Star Emblem (removable). To attach, make tiny hole in the middle of front flap with awl or nail, insert pin, and bend it flat against the back of the visor. We are a direct importer of Russian Merchandise since 1997.
