New Trends In Fashion

August 24th, 2009

OK, everybody knows what does USHANKA mean? Yes, you can go to Wiki and find full definition, but I would say simply – this is Russian winter hat. So now you know.

But here is another Russian word – MISHKA. Does anybody know what is that? OK, if you have a friend Michael(or Misha in Russian) and you want to pat him at his shoulder you can say “Hey buddy Mishka!” – it is more informal than Michael. Russians call a bear MISHKA. There is even a Reggie singer Mishka.

Anyway, here is website Skate Clothing , – The latest skate clothing is available online from Yukka, you can go there and you will find new MISHKA NYC cool fashion – the hottest NYC underground import.

How To Find The Right Ushanka Hat Size

April 21st, 2009

In the midst of one of the coldest winters in recent years, there’s no bigger priority than warmth, and there’s no better way to keep warm than with a Russian Ushanka Hat. However, your Ushanka isn’t going to be much help to you if it’s not in the correct size, but do not worry, we’re here to help make sure your hat fits just right!

First, wrap the tape measure around the widest part of your head, just above the ears and eyebrows to the nearest 1/4 of an inch. Traditionally it is better to have a hat that fits looser than tighter.

Next, take a look at our conversion chart below:

Inspired by grunge icon Kurt Cobain, Japanese headwear brand Pledge creates a replica of the late Nirvana frontman’s popular Ushanka hat. The lid features a suede and sherpa combination in a chocolate brown colorway. Although slightly different from traditional Russian headwear, this Pledge rendition features a more contemporary interpretation exemplified best by Cobain’s still relevant legendary status.
