An Ushanka (also known as Trapper hat, Bomber hat, Shapka, Chapka etc.) is a traditional, yet stylish, Russian winter hat with ear flaps, which is extremely warm to handle the frigid Russian winters. It has ear flaps, which can be folded up and tied at the top of the hat, or tied at the chin. Wearing ear flaps down protects ears, bottom of the chin, nape and top of the back of the neck from the cold. The word ushanka translates from Russian as "with ears". Ushi means ears in Russian language.

Winter hats with earflaps are common in the countries of the former USSR, China, North Korea, Eastern Europe and many others.
Ushanka hats are also known as Trapper hats. They are also called Bomber hats, however Trapper and Bomber hats are just remakes and copies of the old fashioned Ushanka hat style from Russia.

Ushankas worn by the Russian and former Soviet soldiers were often made from artificial fur. However officers' Ushanka hats are made from mouton or sheepskin. Rabbit, arctic fox, mink, muskrat and many other types of fur can be used for manufacturing non-military winter hat models.
