Mink Headscarfs & Fur Hoods
An all-black winter hat built as a fur hood: glossy black mink shapes the whole hood, dense black polar fox rings the face, and jersey in the same black threads through to fluffy fox pompons. One color, two furs, one size. Warm to about −20°C and handmade in Ukraine.
Black on black, two textures.
A Black Winter Hat in Mink and Fox
Everything here is black, so the interest comes from texture. The mink is short, dense and glossy, lying close to the head like velvet. The fox is long and airy, with guard hairs that catch light and give a soft, shimmering edge around the face. The jersey below has a gentle sheen of its own. Side by side, three blacks read differently, and the hood looks rich rather than flat.
Black Fox Fur Around the Face
Standing proud of the opening, the fox catches gusts and flakes ahead of your cheeks; behind it, solid mink guards crown and nape. That is why the hood handles frost to around −20°C. Because the trim is black like the rest, it frames the face without adding contrast, which suits women who prefer a discreet look. For a two-tone version with silver fox, see the black and silver hood in this collection, or browse ushankas for earflaps.
Wearing a Total Black Hood
It goes with any dark coat, from wool to a long puffer, and gives a sharp contrast over camel, grey or cream. Red lipstick and gold or silver earrings look striking against the black fur. The jersey scarf can be wrapped once, crossed at the chest or tucked into the coat. Prefer something smaller in black fur? Our mink hat range has options.
Sizing
Black only, universal fit. Give-and-take in the knit suits virtually every adult; tighten the wrap for a snug jawline.

Questions People Ask
Are fur, trim and scarf all one color?
Yes. The mink, the fox trim, the pompons and the jersey scarf are all black. The difference is in texture: smooth, glossy mink on the hood, long airy fox around the face and on the scarf ends, and a softly shining jersey. In bright daylight the long fox hairs catch a soft gleam at the tips.
Total black or the silver fox variant?
Choose all-black if you want a discreet, elegant hood that works with any outfit and doesn't draw attention to the trim. Choose black with silver fox if you want a dramatic frame and a strong light accent near the face. Both have full black mink, fox pompons and the same warmth, about −20°C.
Can a black frame wash out fair skin?
Sometimes, in grey winter light. A little warmth near the face fixes it: blush, a red or berry lip, or warm-toned earrings. Black fur also makes eyes and lips look more defined, a welcome bonus. On olive and deeper skin tones, black fur looks naturally rich and needs no extra help at all.
Would a man wear this?
It's cut and styled for women, with a deep face frame and pompons on the scarf. Some men do wear fur hoods in extreme cold, but for menswear we'd suggest our mink ushankas, which have a more classic masculine shape. The hood itself is unisex in size, so it fits most adult heads.
How do I get snow off black fox?
Shake the hood gently outdoors before going inside, so snow drops off before it melts. Inside, leave it to air on a hat stand well clear of any heating. Once dry, shake again so the long hairs fluff up. Never rub the fox with a towel, as this tangles the guard hairs.
Umbrella or coat hood on top: which is better?
An umbrella, by far. A coat hood on top is possible but not ideal: the fox trim gets pressed flat and the mink loses its shape. If you need extra protection in sleet, carry a compact umbrella instead. In dry frost the fur hood alone keeps you warmer than any coat hood.
How hard-wearing is an all-black fur hood?
Very. Black conceals daily marks, matches every coat and doesn't need careful coordination. Light dust can show on the mink, but a gentle shake or a soft brush removes it. The jersey scarf takes most of the friction from collars and bag straps, so the fur stays in good condition for years.
What makes this a good choice for very cold cities?
Full coverage. Mink protects the crown, ears and nape, the fox trim shields the face from wind, and the jersey seals the throat, leaving no chilly gap above the collar. It's warm to about −20°C, works with heavy down coats, and packs flat for travel to northern destinations. Add warm gloves and you're ready for long days outdoors.
