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 (woollen). 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 (kokarda) of the Serbian eagle or other Serbian symbols.
