lovely warm hat, perfect. I measured my head and added an inch to be on the safe side and it fits perfectly, would have been tight otherwise!
Arrived sooner than expected and very pleased with my purchase.
My hat is super awesome and totally warm. It is cold here in Vienna and the hat is very elegant and goes well with the formal atmosphere here. The color turned out to be quite light, almost grey, but it is even cooler than the brown. The service at Fur Hat World is excellent. I even had to return for exchange/refund and resent, the mailing was super short and customs were only a problem from my fault. They did everything right, even declaring a low value from their side. Excellent work and great craftsmanship. I got my wife the silver fox with the black mink top, and she love it a lot, but my beaver is softer!!! Great work guys, keep it up!
The most amazing hat, the fur is firm but so soft rich and beautifully soft. I really do not think that there is a fur to match it. Once returned a hat and I once ordered two of the same by mistake. Usually you despair especially over expensive orders. I emailed my mistake regards two of the same and received a reply and a refund immediately. As for the return, fantastic because you just post it as you would a letter. Hence Im back today to purchase another two products. Tom
I purchased the sheared beaver black Cossack hat before coming to Moscow, Russia, where I have spent four months this winter. I think it is perhaps the finest hat I have ever owned, lightweight and yet warm, and the ear flaps are fantastic. Regardless of how cold it gets, this hat is made to take it.
One thing that I would like to say about it though. Russian friends have said Cossack is not the right name for this hat. It is correctly called Pirozhok, and it was a very popular style and even mark of wealth and high status during Soviet times. You don't see them as much nowadays, but nevertheless, I often get compliments about how good it looks.
I own the sheared beaver cossack and I love it. My expertise in hats is limited to "I look horrible in every hat ever made" ....except this one. My expertise in furs is limited to what I've read online, and what I've read on beaver holds true, on this hat anyways...it's softer than anything else I've ever purchased, and warm.
The salesperson I spoke to regarding the size of my head and what size hat to order surprised in a big way as when I ordered based on what they told me, the hat fits perfectly, and I mean perfect.
I love everything about my experience in dealing with customer service and the quality of this hat, as well as the fit and look.
I ordered with one day shipping and the store did everything they could to make it happen, as did UPS...however, there was a hold for a few hours as it went through Kentucky as the package was sent internationally that eventually caused the shipment an additional day...all things considered, an understandable situation beyond the control of the store and UPS....ultimately, the hat only took two days to get here....which was fast...and it was very much worth the wait....I don't bring up the delay of a day during the shipping as a complaint but rather for information to someone else ordering...don't freak out if there's a minor delay, it's an international shipment that has to be cleared to enter ...order your hat you'll be very happy with it trust me
