Trapper Hats have many names: Russian Hats, Ushankas, Shapkas, Boris Hats, Cossack Flaps, Hunter Hats or Deer Stalkers this is the ultimate winter hat and has become an absolute classic for men. Traditionally lined with animal fur and skin, this men’s accessory has changed over time to use wool, cotton, acrylic and faux fur to create a wider modern range of trapper hats for men.
