Russian style ear flap hats are also known as Ushanka hats or Trooper Hats. A Ushanka is a fur hat with ear flaps that can be tied up to the crown or back of the hat, or tied at the chin to protect the ears from the cold. Our Russian Style Ushanka hats / Trooper hats feature a wide body, flat top, extra long fur ear flaps, and a wide front fur brim. The ear flaps can be worn down for a trendy casual look or tied up at the top or back for a classic Russian style look. Choose a Russian hat from one of many fur types and sheepskin types. Choose the popular Full Fur Russian hat style or the fur with leather/suede style, which we call the Trooper Hat.
The Russian Ushanka in the English-speaking world, it is sometimes referred to as a shapka. However, this usage is not accurate, but is rather a Russian language word meaning simply 'hat'. Ushanka literally translates as 'ear flaps hat'.
Though ushanka hats are a distinctly Russian hat, indeed, the stereotypical Russian is seen to wear one. The wearing of fur hats of similar design is common throughout China, Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. It is possible that Russians adopted this design from Mongols during the Middle Age Mongol invasion of Russia.
Russian hats are often made from rabbit fur and muskrat fur, though other animal fur, such as beaver fur or coyote fur, are not uncommon for Russian hats, with particularly fine examples being made of mink fur, raccoon fur or high-quality sheepskin.
The increasing worldwide demand for Russian style fur hats has prompted us to make it a priority to offer them in a wide variety of designs using a variety of fur, leather, and sheepskin choices.

The Black Beaver Russian Trooper Hat for MenReview
Pete from Sussex England

"Just 5 days for delivery to the UK. The hat is incredibly well made, warm, and comfortable. I was slightly concerned that the weather here wouldn’t be cold enough for beaver fur but it is amazingly warm without the overheating I’ve experienced wearing hats with man made fibres. I whole heartedly recommend this hat and fur hat world..... thanks"

Brown Sheared Beaver Russian Cossack Hat for MenReview
Morning Glory from Racine, WI, USA

"Shortly before Christmas, my 87 year old Father and I were reminiscing about my childhood and I commented about the handsome authentic fur Cossack hat he used to wear. He loved that hat and I didn't understand why he stopped wearing it over 20 years ago. I asked him why and his answer made me laugh - - "It wore out and local stores no longer sell them." The next day, I searched online and found Fur Hat World. The brown Moutan Sheepskin was sold out so I upgraded to Beaver. When he opened his gift on Christmas Day, he lit up with joy and put it on immediately. He marveled at the quality and softness. It is both elegant and manly. As I took his photo, happy childhood memories of family outings with Dad wearing his Coassak hat made me smile. Thanks Fur Hat World!"
Black Fox Full Fur Russian Hat for MenReview
Jasper Nowell from CHICAGO, IL

"The Full Fox Ushanka (Black) is perfect! Quality is excellent and it looks beautiful. One thing to note: My fitted hat size is 7.5”, and the Fur Hat World size of XL is very snug, bordering on tight. It is fine for me, but if you are sensitive to a tight-fitting hat, you may want to go up by one size. Overall, I am extremely happy and will definitely recommend this website to friends."

"Very pleased! I lived in Russia for several years in the 1990s and have many similar hats of various furs. My son whom I adopted from Russia wanted one of his own as a young adult. This hat is as good as any I've seen, tried, or owned. It was delivered as promised and fits well. The price was reasonable."
