Our take on the Virgil Cole Movie Hat - from Appaloosa {2008}
Our Virgil Cole Movie Hat is the cowboy hat worn by Ed Harris in 2008s excellent Western Film,
Appaloosa.
This is also the hat with only minor changes (a front pinch to the crown and a bit more roll to the brim) that Mr. Harris wears as
The Man in Black, in HBOs new western hit,
Westworld. It's almost like the character is patterned after a mean and vicious
Virgil Cole. If you would like
The Man in Black version, add the request to the PRODUCTION NOTES.
The style is a an adjusted version of a basic Boss of the Plains style cowboy hat. Add a homburg dent to the crown and give a nice dip to the front of the brim and there she be. Pretty close to a Fort Bragg version of the US Cavalry Hat from the 1870s.
