In dyed black lamb's fur with a woolen top and quilted cotton liner. Includes standard Navy EM hat badge. The liner has a stamped logo of the Leningrad's Rot-Front Fur Goods Factory of the USSR Ministry of Light (Consumer Goods) Industry, showing a (19)58 date of manufacture and Size 58 (US size 7 ¼). Additionally, there is a size 58 stamped separately in large numerals on the liner. There is also a Rot-Front Factory Minis manufacturer's tag attached with a string to the back on the exterior (complete with the official factory seal in tin). The tag specifies the materials used: ovchina (treated lamb's fur) and sukno (wool cloth). The tag also shows a February 1985 date of manufacture and size 58.

The hat is unissued, in near mint condition, shows only storage age and dust that will clean off nicely. A very uncommon hat to find in premium condition, decent size, and with a Soviet era maker's tag still attached!
