7" Crown
5" brim (optional bound edge on
10X)
Includes our "Quigley Band"
This is a replica of the movie hat worn in Quigley Down Under. An
outstanding hat from an outstanding movie. "Quigley Down Under"
instantly became one of those iconic movies, and Tom Selleck created
what we think was the best character of his career in Mathew Quigley. If
you haven't seen this movie, or haven't seen it lately you should rush
out and get the DVD. The story, the acting, the direction, the costuming,
and hardware are all first rate.
"Quigley Down Under" inspired a side match event at many Single Action
Shooting Events. Usually called the "Quigley Match". It is single shot
buffalo rifle, off hand, at 200 yards or so. Tom Selleck should be proud.
Tom Selleck's hat was also the best of his career, it suited him perfectly
even though hats of this proportion actually became available a few
years after this time period, but we wont worry about that detail. The
style is similar to our 5" brim bull rider but not exactly the same. Notice
the slightly different crown and brim; our Quigley is exactly like that in
the movie.
We don't just adapt a pre-existing hat to make an impression of the
look, we form our hats by hand exactly like the original.
We hand make the leather band of chap leather and rawhide lacing. Band
is tied off with knotted leather, or upgrade to the eastern rattler tail (as
in the movie).
You can get the braided calfskin stampede string that goes through the
brim and around the back of the crown like Quigley wore, or upgrade to
the much nicer double loop calfskin stampede string with tassles, as
shown on the top picture.
