earlaps

/ˈɜlæps/ noun B2

flaps on a hat that cover the ears

Word Origin Ear comes from Old English ēare, and lap from læppa 'fold, flap' — so earlaps are literally 'ear flaps.' The same root lap gives us lapel (a folded flap on a jacket), overlap (to fold over), and flap (something that hangs loose).
