Coyotes are a pain in the ass, nothing wrong with wearing a real one. (As in, they don’t just kill pets, they kill or mongrelize wolves and foxes)

Ushanka. Very warm. If it’s crazy cold let the ear flaps cover your face and ears. During the siege of Leningrad the Germans wore their distinctive helmets, the steel exacerbated the cold. The Russians wore ushankas and felt boots. Wearing them prevented frostbite.

That hat looks as though it is balanced on the very top of his head, which wouldn’t do much for keeping it warm.
