After filming The Adventures of Robin Hood, Warner Brothers top action star; Errol Flynn was rushed into his first western role, in the 1939 western; Dodge City. The movie is quite entertaining, with Flynn playing Wade Hatton with more than a dash of Robin Hood!
Flynn favored this hat shape in many of the westerns he appeared in.

FRONTIER FUR FELT
The Dodge City is shown in long hair Beaver fur-felt. Some call it SHAGGY some call it GRIZZLY, we prefer the name FRONTIER fur-felt to describe it, as this is what the very first beaver fur-felt would have been like.
Not as long as Buffalo Bill Cody’s hat seen here, but longer than today’s standard hat bodies.
You’ve likely seen this look before in a western movie. You can generally spot a long haired fur-felt in most of the westerns filmed in the 1930s and 40s. Errol Flynn wore it in several of his western movie’s like Dodge City.
FRONTIER FUR FELT has all the same characteristics as our fine, standard hat bodies – just a longer finish to the fur of the hat. You can request Frontier Fur Felt for any of our hats, when your hat details are confirmed with Sonja. No extra charge.
B-Movie Hats
These hats are characterized by exaggerated dimensions made possible by starting with an oversized hat body. Sound and Silent B-Movie hats usually featured tall crowns and large brims, and often had massive kettle curls.
