be advised this hat is not for a light american winter of 30-40F at that temperature your head will actually be uncomfortably hot. In my opinion this hat is useful for 10 degrees F and below which is what you should expect from a soviet sheepskin hat. in short this hat is the real deal.

Bought this hat for myself I wear a 7 3/8 us hat size and size 61 was perfect. The quality of this ushanka and the level of customer service is second to None! Order was processed and shipped vary quickly. Excellent customer service and quality product you will not be disappointed!

The delivery was fast and the ushanka is as expected. It is warm and well made. I followed the sizing guide and it suits me well.
There was nevertheless a small flaw in the ushanka that shows that quality control of the product could be improved. But returning it would take money and time so I wear it as it hence four stars only.

The Army officer of the Russian Federation mouton ushanka hat worked very well for me this winter. The hat is very well made. The sizing guide that this website provided was very useful and allowed me to get a perfect fit. I would recommend this product and company.

It looks, fits and feels perfectly. And it's getting lots of use here in Chicago. Very highly recommended!

The first hat I ordered never made it to the UK. Tracking showed it disappeared at Newark (from memory). I contacted Dmitry who advised me to wait until the mandatory delivery time had passed so he could then check its status. There was no trace of the hat, so he sent a second one at no additional charge, this time fully tracked to the UK. It arrived within days. An excellent hat and excellent service.

Exceptional item and delivered in superfast time to the UK for a trip to Finland. Only gripe is that some of the lining has become unstiched,this is a minor issue. Would definitely purchase from this company again.

It's a very excellent hat. Nice fit, great warmth, plenty of coverage, and looks great! Punching a hole for the insignia requires some care, but that's a minor nuisance at worst. All in all a great purchase!

Excellent warm hat. Wish they could offer other products, such as gloves, jackets, and boots (Valenki) -- all useful here in Wisconsin. What other major world military is best equipped for Winter than the one which trains in Siberia?

it fits as described, it's just as i pictured it would be, solid quality, warm, comfy.

Great product. Fits well and very warm.

The quality of the product is very good, though the sizes run a bit small. Luckily, I was told this ahead of time, and ordered two sizes larger than normal. The hat fits perfectly.

This is a very high quality product. The color is slightly darker than in the picture but very nice. There was a slight problem with my order and the customer service was prompt, and 1st class. I measure out at a size 60, but based on recommendations from other reviews ordered a 62 and it fits perfect. Can't wait to wear.

Came within a few days after ordering, fits great and keeps my head warm. People at work love it. My coworkers kept asking where I bought it and they wanted one. Well made and didn't have to stretch it

I ordered item #013 "Army officer of the Russian Federation mouton ushanka hat". I'm very impressed with the quality and fit. After measuring my head at 62 cm Dmitry advised me to recheck because he believes I should be 60 cm. Sure enough he was right! He recommended 2 cm larger so I ordered a 62 and the fit is perfect! I also made a change in the insignia after placing my order. Dmitry was very quick to respond to my e-mails, he explained in detail the color and construction of the hat, took care of the insignia change and followed up with an e-mail saying he was happy to hear I received it and all was well with my order. Very good experience, I would not hesitate to purchase another.

The Army Officer of the Russian Federation mouton ushanka hat is excellent. The fur is very soft and warm. The sizing guide provided by this site worked perfectly. I would recommend this hat and this company ushanka.com

The hat is quite nice and well made. The only problem I have with it is that it's a bit snug and smaller than expected.

Excellent! High quality hat. (Size runs a bit small).

Good transaction. Fast delivery.

Great quality and fit.

Got much help from the re-seller Dmitry and received my ushanka in just a few days. Although I'm from overseas Europe all went very smooth. I would order at ushanka again without any doubt. I recommend this store as being reliable, good service and very helpful.

I originally sent an e-mail to Dmitry interested in a ushanka that was out of stock for the size I was looking for. He responded back that same day explaining that it is reccomended to purchase a hat a few sizes larger, and also provided a very helpful chart showing height compared to average hat size. With this information I was able to purchase my ushanka the same day (Tuesday) and it was delivered that saturday; Two days ahead of its projected delivery rate, not to mention, I live on the other side of the country from where it shipped. The craftsmanship is outstanding, and it is easily one of the nicest hats I have ever placed on my head. Fantastic work!

I had a Russian roommate in college, always wanted a hat like his. Finally came across this website, with its many styles & choices. I selected your ushanka officer's hat. I gave it all 5 stars for its low weight, comfort, construction & a nice look. several weeks ago; everything about it is fine, although here in Michigan, we've had the mildest winter ever; so it hasn't yet experienced our usual below-zero - 20 F, & lower. Further, it shipped within a few days.

I really enjoy this hat. It looks great & is very stylish. You can tell that it is well crafted with high quality material. I hope to be wearing it every winter for many years to come. Great service & was delivered on time in spite of the East Coast blizzard. Looking forward to purchasing the brown mouton army ushanka #002 when it becomes available.

great company to deal with. High quality product.

My son really wanted one of these so we bought it for a Christmas gift and he loved it. We went to to Colorado for Christmas and New Years and he wore it the whole time we were out and about. Wish I had bought one for myself. :)

Great hat. Always wanted one and glad I choose you guys. one happy customer.

I bought one of these hats from ushanka.com a few years back. I've got to tell you, it keeps my head warm through out the winter! you must understand that I HATE TOQUES!!!! I've hated those hats since I was a kid!! As a kid, every winter I always came within a hair's width of losing my ears to frostbite because of my stubborn refusal to wear a toque because I hated those hats and still do. Thanks to my ushanka, I cane brave the cold! I later went back to this site and bought a couple more ushankas so that I'll have some spares!! this site's service is awesome!!!

I'm very pleased with the hat, and I appreciate the extra pin they included. ^_^ I will definitely buy from Ushanka again if I need another warm hat that looks awesome. This one was a tremendous value.

Compré dos sombreros, uno para mi y otro para un amigo y son fantásticos, mucho abrigo y buena calidad del sombrero. Realmente una compra muy buena y quedé muy a gusto.

Gracias Ushanka !!

I bought two hats, one for me and one for a friend and they are awesome, good quality and warm hat. Really a very good buy and very comfortable.

Thanks Ushanka !!

A very nice hat, well made and warm. Wore it once, due to a cold snap, but it seems our winter is over for this year 2/15/15...68 degrees yesterday, Oh well there's next year. KL

Just as described. Thank you!

After a couple of leather Navy Officer Ushankas (from elsewhere) that I wasn't too happy with, I decided to try this site. Ordered my Army Officer Ushanka -size61, which has a woolen top and straight away felt comfortable, should have ordered from here in the first place. It fits well with ears up or down whereas the leather one -size 62, was loose tied up and still too tight with ears down. This one is my current favourite hat, happy at last.

This Winter I'm certainly glad to have the sheepskin ushanka. Fits perfectly and very nice toasty with the flaps down. Stitching thread is very good.

I am very satisfied with my purchase! The Ushanka arrived in a timely fashion and in fine condition. Recommend highly.

The ushanka I ordered kept my head completely warm through freezing sub zero temperatures while I was deployed for over half a year overseas. Thank you so so very much for your product. It was so worth the the money I have ordered another even though my previous product has not warn out the slightest bit. A big salute to Russian authentic winter headgear.

I must say it is a very nice hat. Very warm for the Wisconsin winter.
If anyone knew how to deal with cold weather, it is the Russians.
I am glad I purchased it!

I got the hat in 3 days, and was totally blown away at how awesome it was. Thank you so much!

Valentina, I'm writing to thank you for the great ushanka that I received on Tuesday. The shipping was really fast, and it arrived in great condition. The quality is amazing and it is so warm! I will definitely be buying from you in the future! Thanks again!

Just writing in to say thank you for the incredibly quick shipping and the beautiful, beautiful ushanka. I ordered the lamb fur army hat and couldn't be happier. And the insignia is just remarkable. I'll definitely be coming back to this site in the future (right now I'm eyeing that set of 50 pins). Thanks again and take care,
