Very well tailored and really warm winter cap. I think it looks quite nice. The only downside is the weak ventilation, which makes the head sweat quickly.
The Pilot-style winter hat is crafted following the design of MA1 military hats. It offers excellent insulation against the cold, shields the head from the wind, and prevents heat loss, making it perfect for chilly days.
Constructed from damage-resistant polyester, the hat features synthetic insulation inside, ensuring superior thermal comfort. The stain-resistant outer layer has decorative stitching to maintain uniform filling distribution. The lining and forehead are lined with synthetic fur, enhancing perceived thermal comfort.
The ear muffs come with a buckle strap to secure them under the chin, reducing the likelihood of the hat slipping during wear. Buttons on the sides let you fasten the flaps at the top, allowing adjustment of thermal insulation according to the weather.

Fits much better than the previous trapper hat of a different style I bought elsewhere. I measured my head for both, the other one slipped off, but this one is perfect. Protects against frost and wind, hard to judge water resistance because it doesn't rain at -10°C, but this cap dries faster than wool. Even the smaller ear flaps matter, whether raised or lowered.

The cap looks great, is warm and comfortable. You can wear it both fastened and unfastened. The size is perfect and the shipping was express—I ordered yesterday, got it at noon. I recommend it, there's nothing to think about—worth buying.

The cap looks beautiful, is very warm, and works great in winter. The ear flaps can be fastened at the top, making you look like a real Russian prince. Highly recommend.

I bought it, tried it on, and it's very good. It protects well from cold and wind. The size matches the description. My wife already likes it, so I'll have to buy a second one.
-
Great cap for winter! Durable polyester, insulation and a fur lining provide comfort and warmth. The ear flaps with a strap are a practical solution!
-
Great cap in a military style. Works best in temperatures below zero, when regular hats are not enough anymore. The minimalist design looks good. The inside is pleasant to the touch.
-
The cap is excellent. It protects the ears very well from the cold. Once you put it on, you can barely feel it's there. The clasp sometimes loosens, but you just need to pull one string to fix it. I wholeheartedly recommend it. I feel like I'm living in Moscow when I wear it, although I'm not sure that's what I wanted.

The hat is warm, the fur is pleasant to the touch and not too long, so it doesn't bother around the eyes and mouth. Thanks to its style, it is suitable for both autumn and winter, and it protects the ears and cheeks well even in tough conditions. A hood easily fits over it.
-
I confirm previous opinions regarding sizing – it perfectly matches the chart. I don't agree with negative opinions about the temporary clasp—maybe someone got a faulty one. I have no problems with mine. The fur shade on the black version is very nice. I'm waiting for subzero temperatures to test it at work. Personally, I don't like lifting and clipping up the ear flaps for thermoregulation—I look like a Genghis Khan army rider then ;) I recommend it to everyone who has sinus problems in winter.

The hat works great in winter, covers the ears very well. It's ideal for really low temperatures, because for slightly above freezing it's already too warm. I recommend it.
-
The hat is light and soft to the touch. Thanks to the "ears," it also protects the cheeks well from the wind. It has a very good price-to-quality ratio. The sizing matches the description. This is one of the first hats that my teenager chose and wears without protest, and he was happy with how comfortable it is.

This is already the second hat of this kind I have bought recently – my grandson was very envious of the first one after his branded woolen hat got ruined returning from the gym in sleet. I had no choice. For the next 10 days, he told me every day how the hat performs at school and how much envy it stirs up. In summary – the hat is waterproof, very warm, and looks good. The only downside is the clasp, which has to be sewn onto the strap by yourself, otherwise it comes undone. That's a shame because you can fasten the hat in three ways: under the chin, at the back of the head, and on top. However, each position requires a different strap length. Sewing the clasp on makes this impossible.

Very good cap. Warm, waterproof and impressive. The sizing is perfect. The only downside is the terrible strap buckle—you have to sew it right away because the snap holds only when it's fastened and tightened. If the straps hang loose, the snap can come undone under its own weight and get lost. I had a similar but more primitive military trapper hat during my stay in Antarctica—this one from Mil-Tec is warmer, waterproof, and nicer, although the other had better, longer ties. Either way, both I and my grandson, who immediately wanted the same one, highly recommend it. And the photos on the site don't do it justice—I attached my own.

The XL size cap fits perfectly. It is very warm. The ear flaps can be worn down or fastened over the head. The ear warmers have loops, so you can drop them over your ears or fasten them above the ear.
