Is beanie
Warm, cozy, and didn't give me lice. 10/10
You've seen it in .webms on /k/ and un-embeddable mp4s & .webps on r/militaryp*rn, the first and second Chechen Wars were known for the broadcasted brutality of post-soviet Russian military combat that the world typically didn't see.
A conflict full of controversy and plenty of new gear for foamers-at-the-mouth to yearn for 20 years later, one of our favorite pieces is the humble "Chechenka" hat.
Surprisingly hard to properly source in the canonical Flora pattern in the 2020s, It's the perfect complement to any slav gear and it keeps your noggin nice and warm while you've been forced to keep your BRDM-2 engine (and heater) turned off until you move to the next mud-splattered village to hurry up and wait.
The pattern we chose ended up being our own reverse-engineering of the "Flora" pattern deployed on troops during the Chechen wars and may look different (but better) than others on the market! But we believe the spirit and the feel of the original is still there.

Comfy, looks cool, keeps my ears and cabeza moy caliente.
not too tight, fits perfect.
This is a quality piece of headwear. A little snug at first but my god is it warm and comfy. It’s almost too hot for winter. I literally shaved my head a day before this came in and it was getting cold (I live by a harbor). But once I put this Chechenka on my head I started sweating. That’s a damn fine winter hat! Gives my Ushanka a run for its money. In fact, I’ve just been wearing the beanie only. No pants. Not shirt. No undies. Just pure warmth and freedom.
Awesome build and quality. Happy to report it fits mongoliod size skulls well, also pairs well with the KLMK gorka.
A lot heavier and more durable than I expected. Definitely for colder weather.
