Have you seen anybody other than Sherlock Holmes wear the hat that he wears? Any other famous people with the same situation?

I guess you can say nobody has ever worn the white jumpsuit that Elvis sports, although Evel Knevel comes close.

I have a Sherlock Holmes hat that I wear.

I can’t think of anyone famous, but sometimes in cartoons and on book covers or such things you’ll see someone wearing one. It usually means ‘generic detective’ in those contexts.

The hat is called a ‘deerstalker’ and Holden Caulfield wears one in ‘Catcher in the Rye’.
