For the sleeper service colloquially known as The Deerstalker, see
Caledonian SleeperA deerstalker is a type of
hat that is typically worn in rural areas, often for
hunting. Because of the hat's popular association with
Sherlock Holmes, it is also a stereotypical hat of a
detective.Its main feature is a pair of fore and aft brims and two flexible side flaps. The dual brims provide sun protection for the face and neck of the wearer. The side flaps can be worn down or tied under the chin to protect the ears in cold weather, or tied up above the crown to keep them out of the way when not in use. The checkered pattern in the
twill fabric also serves as
camouflage, and modern hunting clothes (including deerstalkers) are often made with a red-and-black or orange-and-black check pattern for this and
hunter safety.
