Hi, friends!
What do you think about this cap ? It´s original ? Can anyone help me identify this cap ? Name, year...

Best regards.

Ruiz,

It looks like an early war period 'ushanka' fur cap...original or not is up to varying opinions (I am glad members who post are good at following the rules of the forum)...I for one like it, but you might want to get opinions of others as well.

Hope you do not mind that I edited the title of the thread.

I am happy it is original too. Most likely worn by an Officer.

Cheers, Ade.

I tend to agree, not a WW2 type of fabric IMHO.

Thanks to all, a friend sold me for $ 450, I think it's expensive, what do you think?
Best regards.

Yes, it's very expensive even for undoubtly original "ushanka"
