Kangol

Founded in 1938 by Jacques Spreiregen, Kangol began in the UK with a focus on military and sports headwear, including berets for the British Army in WWII. The brand's name, a blend of "K" for knitting, "ANG" for angora, and "OL" for wool, became synonymous with quality and innovation. Over the decades, Kangol has evolved from a wartime supplier to a cultural icon, known for its stylish berets and caps that have crossed over into music and fashion, collaborating with influential designers and celebrating milestones like its 75th anniversary with global events.
