Hats used to be $90-$200 (by my Bar Mitzva). Standard price now is more like $250-$350 IINM.

Independent Ukraine or the Soviet Socialist Republic of Ukraine?

It may have been squished in a suitcase, or their cleaning ruined it-

These hats are around $200 brand-new, and this one is fairly beaten up.

You're confusing them with shtreimlech.

It was pointed out to me. I need to get a shtreimlech. Too bad they don't cover the ears. Would be great in the winter.

Maybe someone should message the seller to confirm that it comes with the built-in earmuffs and ask why they're missing in the picture?

BTW shtreimel is singular, shtreimlech is plural.

FTFY.

Shtreimel is singular shtreimlech is plural, it's the same as saying shteimels. "ech" is the Yiddish equivalent to "s".
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.
