He's often seen sporting one whether he's out and about, on the set, at an interview or in character (think Willy Wonka and Mort Rainey). Depp has worn many different hat styles as well. They include fedoras, newsboys, wide brims and even ball caps.
He first started wearing hats way back when the TV show that made him famous, 21 Jump Street, started to air on national TV. That was 1983, before the world wide web (imagine). His hat of choice was a light-colored fedora back then, one that would become a buckled, worn-in symbol of cool.
Through all the changes society has seen, Depp's hats have always remained the essence of cool. They have an organically classy and masculine suave style. He just knows how to finish an outfit with a hat. So, how does he do it? Let's peruse the many different types of hats Johnny Depp wears.
Depp's first hat was a fedora- a light tan, soft felt fedora hat with a pinched front and moderately wide brim. Since then he has donned many different fedoras including a stylish brown wide-brim fittingly worn when promoting Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Most of Depp's fedoras are pinch-front, wide brims with a taller center-dent crown and light-colored-they just seem to go with everything. His brown fedora, the one he has been seen wearing from time to time, is most like this Stratoliner Fedora by Stetson. However, Johnny Depp also wears lighter color fedoras shaped just like this one. He does wear dark fedora hats in gray or black as well. Nearly all his fedoras are felt with the pinch-front, tall crown and wider brim.
