What is a "fur hat"?

A fur hat is a type of headwear made from various animal furs, such as fox, rabbit, or mink. The hat can be designed with or without ear flaps and can have a variety of shapes, such as a round ushanka or a flat-topped pillbox style. Fur hats are typically worn during cold weather to provide warmth and insulation, but they can also serve as a fashion accessory. Historically, fur hats were popular in many cultures and were often a symbol of social status or wealth. Today, fur hats are still worn by people in cold regions, such as Russia and Canada, and by individuals who appreciate the luxurious feel and look of the material.
