ear flap hat

Cold weather cap

A hat with hinged flaps that fold down to cover the ears in cold weather.

The flaps typically fasten under the chin or atop the crown when not in use.

Also called a trapper hat, bomber hat, or ushanka (the Russian version with fur lining): He pulled down the ear flaps as the wind picked up.
