After many hours of research i would say that there is little to no websites out there where one can purchase a legit WW2 Era Soviet Ushanka out there! (Except for Espenlaub)
If anyone can prove me wrong, then that would be highly appreciated.

I sent you a pm to give you a fighting chance. Good luck
I agree they don’t come up often
I bought my Ushanka from the e-stand on Wehrmacht Awards Forum where period Soviet headgear does pop up every now and then

They are indeed hard to find but now and then they pop up. On WAF there've been a few offered in the last 12 months, here on War Relics one is offered not that long ago. Espenlaub has some (though a bit overpriced imo) and on military markets and fairs I've seen them. It takes some effort to find a good one but usually that effort will be rewarded.
Well to be fair i have seen it, but the inner material used makes me question the legitimacy of that Ushanka.
I ain't saying that it is fake, but i have never seen another one like that, which makes me a bit suspicous.
Though i thank you for the suggestion Aldo
Btw, what is a military market and an e-stand on WAF?
WAF is the Wehrmacht Awards Forum and the E-stand is the section where items can be sold and bought (I have a gymnasterka for sale there in case anyone is interested ).
Tbh, its rather expensive on espenlaub now. (400+ Euros, what are they, Insane? I don't have that money!)
