i positive this question is a bit out of season. how fashionable do you think it is to wear a russian ushanka hat in the winter? what do you think about having the soviet celebrity on it?
um are you russian? because i find it well-meaning of offensive that your gonna wear a soviet star unless you are actually russian and were apart of the soviet coherence.
and you would look like such a moron wearing that hat unless its actually snowing where you're at.

its one of those Russian winter hats with the flaps that lap down for your ears.. dont know if that matters.. but i thought id add it
on the back of the hat draw near the base (center),make a tiny slit with a razor blade so it alleviates the stitch.
this will unbutton it up and no one will ever see the tweak you've made

Staying Warm in the Russian Winterthe
Making allowance for visiting Russia this winter? If so, you are going to need to learn how to stay warm in the legendary Russian winter. Alas, the Russians have end up up with a fail proof strategy over the years.
Mention the Russian winter, and most people think of mind numbing coldness and gulags. Well, the gulags are gone…at least for the time. The mind numbing coldness, however, definitely is still around. Simply put, it is insanely cold. Allow me to offer a intimate experience.
I lived in Russia for a year, ranging roughly from September to September. In November, I consideration we were entering the cold period. After all, it was 10 degrees outside, by far the coldest temperature I had every experienced since I was coming from comfy California. Illiberal did I know, February was the coldest month in Russia. How cold? Try -48 degrees where I was, which was the city of Chita in Siberia.
Noted this severe cold, who in their right mind would visit Russia in the winter? Well, everyone. Russia is defined by the winters, so it is the A-one time to go. Many of the big cultural events happen. The New Year’s celebration is legendary. Russians don’t virtuous celebrate from the 31st to the 1st. It is more like the 31st to around January 10th. No liver is safe!
So how are you going to stay warm during this period? Russians have be broached up with two strategies. The first has everything to do with leather clothing. Thick, heavy leather is fashionable and everyone wears it. Women will actually exhibit full length leather coats that weigh in at about 25 pounds, but keep them so warm that they will wear short skirts underneath. The men serve to stick to heavy coats. Both keep you plenty warm.
Hat and mittens are also mandatory. The prototypical Russian hat definitely works well. You never produce how important it is to keep your brain warm until it is negative 20 degrees outside. The same goes for your fingers. Gloves cacophony good, but mittens are better. Why? You can bunch your fingers up together to create heat.
