Šubara


The šubara is a type of traditional male winter hat used mostly by the Serbs, but also Macedonians and Janjevci in their folk attire. It is in a conical or cylindrical shape predominantly in black colour, because of the black lamb/sheep fur. The šubara is a traditional peasant hat used in harsher and colder times.
It was used in World War I by the Serbian soldiers and by the Chetniks in World War II and again during the Yugoslav Wars. It usually has the cockade of the Serbian eagle or other Serbian symbols.
