It's not all Orthodox men - only Hassidim (which is one branch of Orthodox Judaism). And it's not all Hassidim - only most of them (and only after marriage). And it's not all the time - only on Sabbaths, festivals and certain special occasions.
To answer your question, the shtreimel originates in Poland and Russia. It is a type of headgear which was worn by nobility. There are paintings depicting Peter the Great in which a hat similar to a shtreimel can be seen on his head. Many Orthodox Jewish men adopted this headgear of nobility in order to honor the special occasions when it is worn.
