Established in Cumbria, England in 1938 & adopted by the trailblazers of the hip-hop phenomenon, Kangol maintains a reputation for crafting world-class headwear. It is said that the name Kangol derives from Knit Angora Wool. "Born British, raised on the streets of New York" underpins who Kangol is, where they come from, & what they stand for. Kangol today is a cultural fusion, taking the best of British heritage & mixing it with future fashion.
