Ushankas - Easily the greatest hats ever - General

[QUOTE=ashzu;26777052]I have one that looks like this: [img_thumb]http://images.trademe.co.nz/photoserver/tq/13/133559813.jpg[/img_thumb] Picked it up when I was in China.[/QUOTE] That looks fucking sick man. THE RED TERROR!

-snip- Not gonna bother.

it looks like a dead bear with a star on it

This is definetly a mao hat

[QUOTE=ItsGary;26777404]That doesn't matter. You started the argument and said a flat out statement without any research into it at all and expect nobody to say anything.[/QUOTE] Wow shut the fuck up.

[QUOTE=Louis;26777127]Gay as fuck [editline]18th December 2010[/editline] AKA [I]The hipster hat[/I][/QUOTE] Only if you wear it with faggy clothes. Greatcoat and suit under it and you're okay.

Its like posting in a thread about Cats saying how Dogs rule, its stupid.

It's amazing how people will argue such senseless things.

I live in Texas, not nearly cold enough for those

[img_thumb]http://www.crafts-gifts.com/indian/headdress-15.jpg[/img_thumb] Greatest hat ever imo.

I have a ushanka, it's very useful for cold weather.

[QUOTE=Louis;26777439]Its like posting in a thread about Cats saying how Dogs rule, its stupid.[/QUOTE] Don't tell me you didn't expect a hat discussion. A thread about cats always have posts about how dogs are better in it.

[QUOTE=lead_farmer;26777445]It's amazing how people will argue such senseless things.[/QUOTE] im just saying, fedoras are classier than ushankas [img]http://www.furhatworld.com/images_wm/large/Mouton_Sheepskin_Leather_Russian_Ushanka_Hat_with_Badge_346.jpg[/img] i mean look at it its just goofy

I father still owns a Ushanka with the soviet star.It is a original.

[QUOTE=teh pirate;26777190]fedoras are only hipster if they're thin-brimmed. hipsters don't have the balls to wear the widebrimmed fedoras because the mob will come back to life just to end their pitiful existence and they fucking know it.[/QUOTE] Also, the widebrimmed are classier, something hipsters don't really get. That said, the Ushanka would be heck of a lot more practical in the cold.

Replace cake with ushankas and /v/ with Facepunch. [img]http://i.imgur.com/UxhbT.png[/img]

[QUOTE=Louis;26777439]Its like posting in a thread about Cats saying how Dogs rule, its stupid.[/QUOTE] Your still going on about it and derailing. So your just as bad.

[QUOTE=Moose;26777112][img_thumb]http://codingpad.maryspad.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/fedora_hats.gif[/img_thumb] easily replaced by the fedora, a classier hat[/QUOTE] Ushanka keeps you warmer then a bear in the arctic, fighting off a league of penguins that throw snowballs. Fedora doesn't keep you warm and makes you look like a 1950's mob leader that's going to a gang bang. Here, I drew a picture for you to better understand what I mean. [img]http://img833.imageshack.us/img833/4692/ushankapolarbear.jpg[/img] Everyone that votes dumb sides with penguins. Also my pictures sucks.

[QUOTE=ItsGary;26777530]Your still going on about it and derailing. So your just as bad.[/QUOTE] I have all day babe, I dont even like this thread I'm just killing time.

[QUOTE=Moose;26777612]yeah well its stylish and its p good for rain[/QUOTE] stylish if you wear a suit maybe, which 99% of us clearly don't

i have a Scandinavian hat like this, keeps my ears warm [img]http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rxQVTF1P7hc/RcuQBIdZ41I/AAAAAAAAAGY/GenmPsxeXo4/s400/IMG_1482.JPG[/img]

[QUOTE=FuhFuhFresh;26776882]The one in the picture there is the one I bought, and it was 30 bucks with an extra 5 shipping to Canada, though shipping is free to the U.S.[/QUOTE] When I went to China, they were sold for 100 yuan ($15 USD) each, and me and my friend wanted one, so we said "We'll buy two Ushankas if you let us have them for 100 yuan" So I got mine for $7.50 :mmmsmug:

Why are the ear muffs always up? I've always wondered that. Rarely see them down. xD

Fedoras make you look like a pretentious hipster.

Fedora doesn't keep you warm and makes you look like a 1950's mob leader that's going to a gang bang.[/QUOTE] A felt fedora is pretty warm. Not as warm as an ushanka, but keeps your head warm in -20C. Your ears are going to freeze off if you spend hours outside, though. [editline]18th December 2010[/editline] Personally I find a fedora more comfortable, because the wide brim keeps the snow off my face and the sun off my eyes

I love my ushanka, it's warm as fuck.
