Arctic circle Soviet Army soldier authentic ushanka
Authentic, rare Soviet Army soldier ushanka, with longer length ear-flaps for extreme cold weather conditions has thick synthetic fur, cotton lining and cotton padding inside, wool material top.
These hats were worn by soldiers of the Soviet Army, who served in cold - northern areas,
usually inside the Arctic Circle. Relatively few people live north of the Arctic Circle due to the Arctic climate. The three largest communities above the Arctic Circle are in Russia: Murmansk (population 325,100), Norilsk (135,000), and Vorkuta (85,000).
These ushanka hats were manufactured and are dated 1980's. Unissued military stock condition.
Please note: In order to obtain a size 61, we stretch a size 60 using a professional machine that ensures the hat does not get damaged. That is why if you order a size 61, the inside will read size 60.
For your convenience an insignia will come unattached to the hat.
