The official cold-weather hat of the Finnish defence forces, with our own little improvements. Fur hats have very long traditions in the Finnish military it was actually after experiences in the Winter War of 1939 against us Finns that the Soviets adopted their now-legendary Ushanka fur hats. A very versatile model, this can be worn in many ways depending on the situation at hand.
- Not only functional but looks good too, suitable not only for field wear.
- Fold down ear protector with microfleece lining.
- Fold down fur lined ear and neck flaps for extreme cold protection.
- Fleece lined interior.
Materials
The outer fabric (Carrington Python, also known as Foxa Viking) is 70/30 polycotton, the exact same material used in the latest production runs of the official FDF issue uniforms. Naturally, the camo print is NIR compliant, so you don´t need to fear to look all lit-up when viewed through NVDs.
The interior fleece lining is 100% polyester and the faux fur is 70% acryl, 30% polyester.
To make sure the fabric does not lose its NIR-compliant properties we recommend careful wash using only detergents without optical brighteners. These chemicals leave traces in your machine, so consider avoiding them entirely, not just for washing your war gear.
Sizing
One-centimeter increments between 55—63 cm / (6 7/8" - 7 7/8"), talking head circumference here. The fit is loose enough to allow a few fingers between the cap and head; definitely no need to size up for relaxed wear. For a taut fit one size smaller than usual might come into question.
Sewn in Estonia
These are sewn in Estonia, at a factory that has a long history of producing quality clothing for military, law enforcement agencies.

PROS:
Descently made with descent materials, but do not expect a bomp-proof Korea-style hat like the danish (not sold here). Low weight and low volume.
CONS:
No ones really - unless you expect a heavy weight og bomp-proof Korea-style hat. It is a little to the "flimsy" side. Do not expect 1960's-1980's bomp-proof military grade equipment.
SIZING:
My head is approximately size 60. I have this hat in size 60 which is a bit too tight for my liking. If you like a snug fit choose normal head size - otherwise go one size up. For comparison i also have the german BW korea-style hat in size 62 which is comparable to this hat in size 60.
