Conan Doyles' hero detective wears a deerstalker.
While Holmes wore a Deerstalker in one story, he was equally inclined to top hats and, in disguise, even sailor's caps.
*Additional Note: Holmes' so-called "classic look" of the deerstalker cap and Inverness capecoat were strictly for traveling and country wear. The famous deerstalker is even referred to as a "cloth traveling cap." While in London, where Holmes spent most of his time, he carried himself as a gentleman, and could usually be found in a top hat and coat while about town.

Holmes only wore the deerstalker hat on a few occasions in locations that would actually warrant a reason for wearing such attire. While in London, however, he normally wore hats that were more appropriate to the setting (likely top hats), just like any other gentleman would.
Well, other than his sidekick Watson, I always associate Sherlock Holmes with having a pipe, magnifying glass, and wearing a deerstalker hat. :)His iconic costume was a deerstalker hat and an Inverness cape, however he was rarely drawn wearing them (By Sidney Paget)
Sherlock Holmes usually wore a collared shirt, a hat that looked some what like a top hat. Deerstalker hat, small top hat, or bowler hat, a hand woven tie, frock coat, trousers, Wellington dress shoes or boots, and, being the gentleman that he was, often seen with a cane or walking stick. The usual standard attire of the Victorian Londoner. Evening wear, top hats, dressing gowns, etc. etc. Sherlock Holmes is most famous for his Inverness (the cape-like coat he wore) and his deerstalker (the hat). The Deerstalker cap and Inverness cape are travelling clothes, and, as such, were only depicted by Sidney Paget when Holmes was travelling. They have since been given disproportional importance by later actors. Please see a limited selection of Sidney Paget drawings linked below.
