Weird request, but I am looking for a specific kind of hat, specifically:

Yes, it is a Soviet fur cap. What I am looking for is an online store that would sell one of those types of hats (with insignia included), for less that 30 shipped. Thanks, and please do not flame for my apparel choices.

I'm not sure if they sell Ushankas, but I buy my CCCP/USSR apparel from bornintheussr.com. It's reliable and has real cool items. Remember that A quality Ushanka will set you back a little.

Yea, those were some damn nice looking Ushankas, but it will be hard for me to spen over 40 bucks on a hat. I once had the opportunity ot get a very nice condition surplus one at a fair, for 10 bucks, with insignia, but me mum wouldn't let me. Le sad. That place will definately stay in my mind though.

I think the Soviet Red Army Penguin (http://www.bornintheussr.com/hats.htm) cap is more your style Sneaky. :wink:
In Soviet Russia hat looks for you.

Shipping is a bit more there too. Thanks anyways.
I found some on eBay for 20 plus shipping, but one is in broken english (shipped from russia), and the pictures are down on the other. And I'd rather have a more reliable place to purchase than ebay.
How about here?- http://www.nickolai-gurgeiff.com/cpage/products/details?pid=3646&cid=3587

I'm not sure where you can get one... ebay id imagine, but those hats are great, mine keeps me very very warm, I wore mine to the 2002 winter olympics in salt lake and russian and other exsoviets were waving at me and giving me thumbs up and such, so wear it near some when you can and it will be fun.

Wow. This thread is four years old. But to be fair, Ushanka's never go out of style! \\:D/

Dang, why the hell was this bumped?
Well, I never did get a real Russian style hat, but I did pick up a Mad Bomber about a year ago:
