Soviet Uniform Caps Collection

Soviet Uniform Caps Collection

As we’ve already told, the USSR was a military state. So not even militants, but workers of the various civil departments, like taxi drivers or wood cutters, should wear military alike uniform in a case of sudden war with the enemies of socialism. Even workers of sobering-up stations (special places where drunk people of Russia picked up from the streets were delivered for compulsory medical treatment) had their own uniform.

      Great collection of soviet caps.but i personally like the `medical department of sobriety staff cap`.as i said earlier soviets were so innovative..,they think beyond the horizon.they even create the full fledged organization for the help out of drunks.what a nasty idea.but i miss the cape of nuclear defence forces.may be as nuclear force is secret,his cap is too secret.

      The statement that everybody in the USSR ’should wear military alike uniform in a case of sudden war’ is ridiculous. :Р Are porters all over the world wear uniform because they’re preparing for war?

      Moreover, some caps here are transformed to look more ‘Soviet’ and military (for example, stars added to ’starless’ caps). Also the caption deliberately misrepresents the facts.

      For example, sobering-up stations were officialy a militia (police) departments, so it’s natural their workers wore police caps and a uniform for a short period. But it was soon abrogated and they wore civil clothes on duty (otherwise drunkards attacked them :)).

      The same was with many other occupations (taxi-drivers, etc.). They had a uniform for a short period of time somewhen in 20th centuary, but gradually switched from it to civil clothes.

      In 70-80th there were basically four groups of people wearing the uniform: military men, police officers, some transport workers (pilots, locomotive drivers, stewardesses, (ship) сaptains, etc.) and schoolchildren (http://www.7682.ru/userdata/pionery/shkolnayaforma.jpg).

        Still it’s a very nice collection. I only wish the captions had dates and gave more info, because these uniforms are obviously from different decades.

      Russian uniforms nowadays have the BIGGEST caps in the world. The might double up as satellite dish receivers.

      Russian policemen look extra stupid because of this: first in general he’s not too smart looking [no-one likes the police because of their extreme corruption so you should have no brain to join the police] and as to underline this absence of intellect the head is wearing the most prestigious [biggest] cap imaginable.

      Nice collection though. But worth over $ 50.000 ? Don’t think so. Most of these you can buy at Arbat market in Moscow fairly easy. A few are more rare but even then… Alexander Dolboebov is trying to pull our leg.

      I think we need to test out the theory that the more important your job in the soviet union, the bigger and better your hat was. I mean, look at the Lenin’s tomb guards hat! Coming from a country where our military has to block their own hats with nothing but a horse and a stick, If I’d shown up anywhere wearing a hat like the Lenin’s guard ones I would have been fighting off the pussy with a pooey stick.
      How big was Stalin’s hat for instance? Or Marshall Zhukovs?

      • zafarad says:

        Big is better.the time tested theory.in soviet time we saw very very big things.so why we don`t expect visor cap is too small.but you are right. in soviet and post soviet era,many things are changed so rapidly but these gigantic shades are not much changed.

      Very nice. Interesting the drop in quality of the lower ranks.
      Were military caps available for special purchase from specialist military tailors- using finest materials- including German or French import?
      I ask as some of the wool looks very, very fine indeed- maybe Italian or German?

    15. Aldorado says:

      I know the location of these caps.English Russia is the place.dude you are sucked.forget about your collection.i think your caps are smuggled through the ministry of caps and cocks.but by the way what is the your source of `buying ` or illegally purchasing these fucking cocks.it is too late to shut the stable door when the horse is stolen,agree or not……….
