deerstalker

A hat that has fore and aft brims and ear flaps that can be let down to cover the ears of the wearer, or tied up out of the way. It is made of checkered fabric such as sportsman's tweed or twill. It originated in rural nineteenth-century England, and is most commonly associated with classical depictions of fictional detective Sherlock Holmes.
