Ushanka literally translates as "ear-flaps hat".
Ushanka is a distinctly Russian hat. Ushankas are a common part of the winter uniforms of police forces and militaries in temperate countries, such as Russia and Canada. Fur hats of similar design are common throughout China, Chile, Eastern Europe and North Korea. Ushankas are also seen in North American cities during cold winter months.
I am interesting in history of ushanka, picture of various styles, stories about that winter hat.If anybody has something to share, you are welcome indeed.
