Where is a good place to buy Valenki and Ushkanka?
I am going to St. Petersburg, Russia this summer for a week, as well as Estonia and Ukraine (a week apiece), and I’d like to buy a genuine pair of Valenki – felted wool boots- and an Ushanka, without buying the crap generally set out by locals of all countries for tourists.
I would like to know a few stores and prices for these objects.
Also, it would be nice to know some good traditional things I could get in Estonia and Ukraine.
local markets would probably be the best places
