It’s cold and one should wear something warm on the head. There are a lot of options like beanies and hats, but the most practical and stylish type of winter hat comes from Russia: The Ushanka. See a few models in comparison to western headwear.

Go to 4:22 in Tim’s video link to see hot Russian playing piano. Before that, I think conductor that enjoys masculine things. On another note… Tim, love your videos and I love the Ushanka. But, I live in Louisiana. So, lowest temp here in a typical year is about 40F – so, no Ushanka for me. On the final note, a friend of mine died last week and his drink of choice was a Gin Rickey. I drank one in his honor and have to agree with you that Gin is just too floral. Peace to you and and all your viewers/followers.
With the Ushanka ears down, you look like Elmo Thudd. “Hey, Wabbit…”
Awesome video brother really enjoying your channel keep it up and have a great New year
Now you look like an East German.
I wear a hat outdoors from November to March. I haven’t had a chest infection or head cold for more than 20 years. The Russian hat is good for extreme conditions, a woollen beret is my favourite though. I didn’t know it was possible to still find vintage fur hats. I’ll start a search now.
Russian hat , Russian musician and Russian movie ( about Stalin ) , why not Russian wirst watch ? Or something connected with Russia , a H Moser and cie for example .
I always liked those Russian hats. I had a Shearling Lama coat that was very warm and received many compliments on it, sadly I had it dry cleaned and it destroyed the coat. I did get a lot of good years out of that coat and someday will get another one. Thanks for the video Tim!
Play some guitar for us
I always wanted one but have no idea where to get one in Japan! So practical.
(P.S. sorry it’s been a while since I saw your vids!)
I don’t think I could pull one off in Australia.
In Moscow in the 80s there was a saying that if you wore the ear flaps down you were a bit of a girl. I wanted to fit in so I wore them up throughout the winter of 1988, minus 30 celcius. Moral: don’t try to fit in.
You’ve just convinced me to try Vodka Tonic.
Random, interesting and entertaining
Fun video! I wish I could do hats, but my hair never survives and I look like a 5 year old just out of bed. What’s the dry product you’re using?
Guten Tag Tim…..
Your Ushanka makes you look like a Bubushka…..
*insert communist joke here*
Gin, is a ladies drink
Funny video and good points.
In November, they make fun of you.
In December, they’re jealous of you.
In January, they’re considering stealing it from you.
Very entertaining and informative, thanks Tim! Will definitely check out Olga!
It looks like an afro when you lift your chin up 😉
Beautiful music & Woman.
Tim Enjoyed Olga’s Concerto very much she is exceptional! Thanks for the link! Happy New Year!
Very funny Tim not a big fan of hats but looks good on you lol
What is the status of your bespoke winter coat ?
Wonderful video.
The death of stalin is a very good movie , I confirm .
Started feeling old when you said the hat was an antique… Then said it was produced in the 80s.
Hilarious video. Never been into hats myself but I might give it a go
In November they look confused.
In December they look jealous.
In January they ask you how to buy that thing.
Wisdom from Tim!
Thanks for the link to the Olga Scheps concert, wonderful!! The Ushanka would be useful in Boston, it would certainly get comments at the office!
You are a funny guy. I enjoyed the vid.
