Papakha (Armenian: փափախ; Azerbaijani: papaq; Georgian: ფაფახი, [pʰapʰaxi]; Chechen: холхазан куй; Russian: папа́ха; IPA: [pɐˈpaxə]), also known as astrakhan hat in English, is a wool hat worn by men throughout the Caucasus. The word papakha is of Turkic origin.
The two Russian papakhas. One, called a papaha, is a high fur hat, usually made of karakul sheep skin. The hat has the general appearance of a cylinder with one open side, and is set upon the head in such a way as to have the brim touch the temples, some of them comes with ear flaps which can fold up when not using them and unfold them down when using. The other called a kubanka, which is the same as the papaha, except shorter, and with no ear flaps.
Papakh are very common in eastern Armenia and Nagorno-Karabakh as well as other mountainous regions, where a man's hat is considered a very important part of his identity. In Georgia, papakhi are also mostly worn in mountainous regions of Pshavi, Khevi, Mtiuleti, and Tusheti. Papaq are also very common in Azerbaijan. Papakhi are also donned by the Chechens, Dagestanians, and other Caucasian tribes. In 1855, after the campaigns in the Caucasus Mountains, the Papakha was introduced in the Russian army as an official part of the uniform for the Cossacks, and later for the rest of the cavalry.
This year your boy went all out
Let me sit down and tell you what I'm talkin' about
Now what's somthin' you can imagine
So I don't have to explain
Oh, just picture the North Pole
Relaxin' in my chain and my girl
She's bad, so bad, whoa
Havin' a girl like Boog's gonna become the new fad
When you're walkin' to my house
You're gonna be given a map
'Cuz if you turn the wrong corner
You won't find your way back
But I'm sleepy now
So, I'm gone off the track
Bye, goodnight, holla

Got an iced out chain that put a crick in my neck
