... that malahai(example pictured) served as a protective helmet, even though it is a fur hat? Source: https://cyberleninka.ru/article/n/kazahskaya-voinskaya-shapka-malakay-xviii-xix-vekov It's in Russian, but has an English summary at the end of the PDF article: "... author concludes, that "malakai" cap had polifunctional [sic] meaning. (...) used both as a warm headdress and a soft protective helmet. A high crown combined with front part (...) amortized an enemy's punch (made by blade weapon) and protected a warrior's head and neck."
