The Chapka, the must-have of winter!
The Chapka is a headgear widely recognized in the world of millinery, but who truly knows the origin of the Chapka? This accessory is a delightful blend between a beanie and a hat , allowing the wearer to keep their head warm during the winter season. Now a trendy item, the Chapka comes in various shapes, materials, and many brands (Stetson, Kangol) now include it in their collections.
The history of the russian « Ushanka »
What is the origin of the word Chapka? Also known as “ushanka” in reference to the term “ouchi” (meaning “ear” in Russian), the Chapka is a traditional Scandinavian hat partially or entirely covered with fur. Featuring flaps that can be tied above the head, this headgear can also cover the neck and ears to protect them from frost. It is, therefore, the perfect accessory to combat the cold. It was long used by the Soviet army on the battlefield. This headgear was later worn in Alaska and Canada by police forces and trappers.
The Chapka will charm you with its cozy cocoon-like feel. It ensures warmth throughout the winter. This type of headgear is no longer reserved solely for extreme cold. Indeed, women increasingly appreciate the chic and elegant aspect of this piece, generally adorned with fur (natural or synthetic). Influencers are fond of it and wear it with the ear flaps up or down, depending on the desired effect.

What color headgear to choose? Generally offered in brown or black, the Chapka is now available in many color variations. Our little fashion tip: avoid pairing a Chapka with furry boots and a puffer jacket unless you want to resemble a polar bear.
Chapkas for men, women, and children
Whether to shield from the cold or to adopt a trendy Nordic and cocooning style , the Chapka is available in different sizes and is suitable for all family members, from adults to the little ones.
The Chapka for men
A Russian man typically wears the Chapka as a toque in sober colors such as black or brown. Soldiers and political leaders have made it a habit not to cover their ears with their Chapka to avoid showing they are cold. However, if you are not in one of these cases, do not hesitate to fully enjoy the warmth this headgear offers!
The Chapka for women
The Chapka is far from being reserved solely for gentlemen. Indeed, women increasingly appreciate the chic aspect of fur and the elegant style conferred by wearing this unique headgear. Female stars such as Madonna, Angelina Jolie, and Uma Thurman have already adopted it. When will it be your turn?
The Chapka for children
Just as with the sun, it is essential to protect our little ones from the cold with a lovely Chapka that covers their ears well. Choose it as colorful as desired, and your child will be delighted!
The Chapka, an increasingly coveted accessory!
Today, on the catwalks and in the streets, the Chapka has become a true fashion accessory that appears as soon as the cold sets in. Gone are the days when this headgear was worn exclusively in Scandinavian countries. Today, the Chapka can adapt to both an outdoor look and a more chic and refined style.
How to combine your fur hat with other accessories?
The fur Chapka can be worn in different ways: either with the ear flaps up or down. When they are up, they should be tied on top of the headgear. They can also be tied under the chin to increase protection and warmth.
This headgear can easily be paired with your winter accessories like fur or leather gloves. It is also possible to play with contrasts by pairing this headgear with a more urban outfit.
What material to choose for your Chapka?
The traditional Chapka is made of fur (rabbit, mink), but today there are many variants in wool, leather, synthetic fur, and quilting. These provide optimal comfort and quality to the model.
