- Fur: 100% sheepskin Top: 70% wool 30% cotton
Made from genuine mouton sheepskin fur, this ushanka hat model is a current issue of the Russian Army forces.
The wool top of this hat acts as water resistant shell. The nature of the fabric is such that it very slowly absorbs moisture, and once wet it becomes almost impenetrable to water. When it gets wet, it does not let moister in, therefore even if it is raining, a Russian Police officer’s head stays dry and warm.
This hat is excellent for keeping the ears and neck warm, blocking out the cold wind and snow, with the ear flaps from the soft mouton.
Quilted padded cotton lining inside.
For your convenience an insignia (Authentic Soviet Army soldier hat insignia) comes unattached to the hat.
Unlike many online offers of Ushanka-style hats (made in china knock-offs), our hats are genuine products made in Russia from the highest quality locally manufactured materials only. Guaranteed!
These high quality winter hats are manufactured to order of, labeled and sold by the Ushanka llc, based in Syracuse, NY, USA
