Personally I prefer the fifties style but maybe that's just a yearning for the golden age.
Judging from old West photographs neither style is accurate, it seems back then they just put anything on their heads that fitted.

The most memorable hat in a Western for me was worn by Henry Fonda in "My Darling Clementine".
