Solid
A lot heavier and more durable than I expected. Definitely for colder weather.

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.

Nice camouflage hat for night time. Sleep tight. Always carry one in my gear.
It's comfortable but a little on the small side. Still fits my big head so it's not an issue. Currently on deployment and this thing came just in time for hat day. Very good quality hat.
I love this beanie! Super warm, soft and comfortable
