Saving Private Ryan - Captain Miller's (Tom Hanks) Army Ranger Costume

This incredible screen-used 2nd Ranger Battalion costume, worn by Tom Hanks (Captain Miller) in ‘Saving Private Ryan’, is a remarkable piece of cinematic history.

Directed by the legendary Steven Spielberg, this iconic WW2 film takes its audience on an evocative and harrowing mission, as Captain Miller and his heroic Ranger battalion traverse enemy territory to find and expatriate Private Ryan (Matt Damon) – the last remaining brother from a family of four brothers, the others having fallen in battle.

This remarkable and period-accurate ensemble, developed by costume-designer, Joanna Johnston, and handmade for the production, includes a combat jacket with built-in pockets and a Rangers patch, trousers labelled “Miller”, a button-up shirt with a Rangers patch, an undershirt, a tactical vest marked ‘Miller” and matching boots. A rehearsal helmet (hand-marked “Miller”) with 2^nd Ranger insignia, a webbed belt stencilled "U.S.", boot-covers and a metal shovel complete the look.

The costume exhibits production wear, including grime buildup, thread pulls and discoloured areas.

Renowned for its authenticity, ‘Saving Private Ryan’ revolutionised war cinema, winning five Academy Awards®. This costume encapsulates Spielberg’s dedication to realism, serving as a lasting tribute to the film’s legacy and a testament to the heroic sacrifices of the soldiers of World War II.
