Apocalypse now Hats

Apocalypse Now” starring Robert Duvall as Lt. Colonel Kilgore, is outfitted with different cavalry hat styles all with similar qualities. In some cases he wore the “Kilgore” with the 9th cavalry sabers, the Lt. Col. Rank insignia, and the black and gold acorn band with gold acorns, while in others he simply wore the cross-sabers pin with no rank. After the premiere of the “Apocalypse Now” movie, this Hollywood Legend made the “Kilgore hat” very popular, the 4 ⅝” high crown, 3 ½” medium brim, and the enlisted cross-sabers are recognizable nationwide. 

This hat is very popular amongst cavalry troops and their squads. Miller Hats has done extensive research and concluded with a style that we feel best fits the one worn by Lt. Colonel Kilgore in “Apocalypse Now”.

Straw Crossover Hats

We refer to the straw crossover hats as combination of a dress hat and a cowboy hat. The Crossover hat isn’t as drastic as the American cowboy hats, it’s normally a little smaller crown and brim. Straw crossover hats start around a 3” brim.  The crown mostly will be a teardrop or a center dent.  The wideness of the brim helps combat the harsh weather in many hot regions.

Miller Genuine Panama Hats

Miller Genuine Panamas Hats are “The king of all summer hats”, the panama has remained the leader of the Miller Hats line because of its unique combination of smart appearance, lightness, coolness and durability.  The Miller genuine panamas are all hand-woven of “toquilla” fiber and imported from Ecuador and South America.   

Actually, it is said that an Ecuadorian named Francisco Delgado made the first Panama hat woven in the year 1629.  Since then, the weaving of Panama bodies has remained substantially the same - performed by native families who pass their skills on down from generation to generation.  

The tough “toquilla fibers’’ come from the leaves of palm plants.  They wash the shreds before they are rolled and flattened into the form suitable for weaving.  When the shredded leaves are processed and the fibers are in the form desired for weaving, they are sorted and selected according to length, thickness and color.  The more uniform the fibers are for each body, the better the finished hat can be. The finest grade of fibers produces the highest quality hat, not only because fineness of fiber results in fine texture but also because a hat of fine fibers takes considerably more time and effort to weave than a hat of course fibers.  

Nowadays,  the Panama hat brings an elegant boost to any summer outfit. It adds a sense of proper style to those sunny days, providing not only protection from the sun’s rays, but also an additional something like a welcome eccentricity.  The new collections of panama hats are colorful and fashionable. Remember, you get the look you want at Miller Hats!
