Nicolas Cage finally brought Spider-Man Noir to live action in Spider-Noir, playing an aging private investigator in 1930s New York who used to be the city's one and only web-slinger. It's hard-boiled, shot in black-and-white and color, and dripping with Depression-era atmosphere — and the look is built on one unmistakable piece: a black felt fedora.
Cage first voiced the character in the animated Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse; now he wears the hat for real. Here's how to get it.
What hat does Spider-Man Noir wear?
Spider-Man Noir's hat is a black felt fedora with a grosgrain ribbon band — a classic 1930s private-eye silhouette worn low over the mask, paired with a trench coat. It's a wide-ish snap brim and a proper crown, the kind of hat that reads "1930s detective" the instant it's on. To nail it, keep it black felt and go for a period, noir-leaning shape rather than a small modern brim.

How to wear it
The Spider-Noir look is all mood: black felt fedora, brim snapped down in front, over a dark trench coat. Keep the palette shadowy and the brim low, and you're halfway to a 1930s stakeout. (Web-shooters optional.)
