Ushankas, pins, tiny soviet or PRC memorabilia are all great. Soviet milsurp can be pretty cheap too.

Do you have a good marketplace for those? i'm in the market for an ushanka and the ones i find on vinted are ass, or some tourist-trap kind of shit with a fake-ass ussr badge.

You can find pins on temu, you might be able to find an ushanka. I know that the non-compete merch store sells an ushanka with a USSR pin you can attach to it.

Ebay or other secondhand places seem like a good spot!
