Doc Holliday Cowboy Hat

We know Doc Holliday as the deadly doctor of the American West.  His mother died of tuberculosis when he was 15.  6 years later, once he had graduated from dental school, he found out that he had also contracted the disease.  He consulted several physicians, but they told him he had only a short time to live.  Because of the illness, it forced him to find another way to earn a living. 

Doc was a most unusual character. He was educated and refined. Such things were uncommon.  He was fluent in Latin, played the piano very well, was a sharp dresser, and displayed the manners of a southern gentleman.  His intelligence made him a “natural” at gambling, which quickly became his main means of income

Wyatt and Doc met and formed a friendship in Shanssey’s that would last for years.  They met again in Tombstone and were part of the gunfight at the O.K. Corral.  At the end of the day Doc Holliday enjoyed the reputation of being one of the most fearless men on the frontier, and whose devotion to his friends in the climax of the fiercest ordeal was inextinguishable.   If he was ever in trouble, there was a large circle of friends ready to rally, to his relief.  Doc Holliday claimed he almost lost his life nine times.  They attempted to hang him four times, and they shot him five times.    

In the 1993 Tombstone film, Val Kilmer portrays Doc Holliday and his performance is outstanding . His wardrobe in the film was very accurate by many historians.  The black coat, the different vest, black pants and many other details are extremely accurate.  But one of the most important pieces of the wardrobe is the famous Doc Holliday Cowboy Hat.  

Miller Hats understands the relevance of a well-crafted cowboy hat.  Therefore, we have designed a durable, unique and affordable Doc Holliday cowboy hat for those Tombstone enthusiasts.  

Miller Hats designed an authentic replica, Doc Holliday Hat.  The 1993 Tombstone film inspires our Doc Holliday cowboy hat.

Old West Hats

Many ranch hands, presidents, political figures, and business executives wear cowboy hats.  But one thing is certain: once you put a cowboy hat on your head, the unique experience makes you feel you are going to be part of an adventure, or experience.  For a moment, you become part of another time, era, when the West wasn’t just a place, but a state of mind.  
That is what many old west cowboy enthusiasts experience by being part of organizations such as the SASS (Single Action Shooting Society).  SASS members take pride in preserving the history of the old west by being part of action shooting events.  The members will not just have fun with the family, but they will also learn the traditions and history of the Old west.
The requirement of being an SASS member is to adopt a shooting alias appropriate to your specific character or profession of the 19th century.  They then developed their costume accordingly. One of the most important pieces of the costume is a Cowboy Hat. Trying to find a good quality authentic old west hat that resembles the old west era is always a challenge. 
At Miller hats we have designed many old west styles in top quality genuine fur felt materials. Some of the popular styles include the open crowns.  The open crown is authentic of the old west area primarily because it allows for the cowboy to crease their own hat just like in the old west.  The traditional styles from the old west would add dents to the side or the front.  It is the nature of the crease in the crown and the shape of the brim that creates a unique accent for the person wearing a particular cowboy hat.  As the old west cowboy would say “It’s the last thing you take off and the first thing that is noticed”.   
Our old west styles are unique to the era and designed by Miller Hats in the USA. Check out our collections today! 100’s of hats in stock ready to ship.

Wyatt Earp Cowboy Hats by Miller Hats

One of the most famous figures of the American West 19th century era is the famous Wyatt Earp.  Known primarily for his notorious gunfight at the O.K Corral in Tombstone, Arizona in 1881.  Over the years, he made a living by gambling, saloon-keeping, mining and real estate speculation.  He also worked with a personal secretary to write his memoirs.  He died in 1929, but in 1931 the first major Earp biography “Wyatt Earp, Frontier Marshal” by Stuart N. Lake published and became a bestseller. They established Wyatt Earp as a folk hero here among millions of Americans searching for inspiration and excitement during the hard times of the Great Depression. 
Many years later, they created a film called Tombstone based on the events in Tombstone, Arizona, including the gunfight at the O.K. Corral and the Earp Vendetta Ride, during the 1880s.  It depicts several western outlaws and lawmen, such as Wyatt Earp, Virgil Earp, Morgan Earp, Johnny Ringo, Doc Holliday and others.
In this film, Kurt Russell portrays Wyatt Earp. His outstanding wardrobe in the film was very accurate by many historians.  The black coat, the black vest, black pants and many other details are extremely accurate.  But one of the most important pieces of the wardrobe is the famous Cowboy Hat.

This Josey Wales Hat is styled after the hat worn by Clint Eastwood from the film "The Outlaw Josey Wales".  The film tells the story of Josey Wales, a Missouri farmer whose family is murdered by Union militants during the Civil War. Driven to revenge, Wales joins a Confederate guerrilla band and makes a name for himself as a feared gunfighter. After the war, all the fighters in Wales' group except for him surrender to Union officers, but they end up being massacred. Wales becomes an outlaw and is pursued by bounty hunters and Union soldiers as he tries to make a new life for himself. 
   
Clint Eastwood once again plays a great role in the The Outlaw Josey Wales movie.   We are proud to design a Josey Wales fur felt hat that is available in distressed or non distressed.  The hat features a 4" flat brim with a pencil rolled raw edge and a 4 1/2" slight pinch teardrop crown. To top it off it comes with a beautifully distressed acorn band to give it a more authentic look.
