Dutch Cold Weather Desert Ushanka

I guessed wrong, way too small for me but the grandson thinks it's the cat's meow.

Like I said my son is all about it and plans to wear it this deer season

As described, fit a bit tight

The inner ear flaps cover the top of the ears and are surprisingly warm

The visor is effective

This hat is effective in cold (well not as cold as America’s wind tunnel🥶) windy weather

Theo Von, (an American comedian) has stated possibly MANY times that the Dutch people are extremely aerodynamic. Their road infrastructure and culture depends on bicycles for transportation. Aerodynamics are important for cycling in order to make a commute less tiring and time consuming.

I am not “skinny” nor am I a “long boi.” I actually look very feminine and have an extremely small head. The smallest size left a mark and cut off circulation to my head. Hats tend to not fit my head because of how small it is, so I chose the smallest size available without measuring, and assuming it would fit me.

This Ushanka was put through extreme abuse and still looks good as new. No seams were stretched or torn. I would like to clarify that this hat was not physically assaulted or verbally degraded. Hat stretching te qu'iniques were used. Ex. boiling a pot of steaming water and stretching a hat over it, and then allowing the hat to dry overnight while being stretched around the pot. This was done numerous times. It was also dry stretched over a pot. It was also steamed and then soaked and then put over my head while using a blow dryer to mold it to my head.

These are real hat stretching te qu'iniques. This Ishanka was capable of handling it like a soldier. It survived through this distress. No seams were stretched, torn, etc. Seriously good as new. Even the faux fur. Makes a great gift for vegans/animal activists since the fur is not sourced from an animal.

Fits great, super warm! Live the desert DPM pattern A+
