Add a unique piece of history to your collection with this handmade reproduction of the iconic Soviet Cavalry Budenovka hat.
First introduced during the Russian Civil War (1918–1922), the Budenovka was inspired by medieval warrior helmets and became a symbol of the early Red Army.
This authentic handmade replica is crafted from durable dark navy wool and features a fold-down design with brass side buttons. The front carries a heavy brass star badge sewn onto a coloured wool star — just like the originals from the 1920s.
