A piece of history
British brand Kangol was founded in 1938 by Jacques Spreiregen, who started out producing caps and hats for workers, golfers and soldiers. The name Kangol is derived from three elements: K for 'knitting', ANG for 'Angora' and OL for 'Wool'. The brand quickly became popular due to the unique use of materials and the comfort of the products. Although originally developed for the working class and the British army during World War II, Kangol caps found their way into the fashion world through celebrities and artists who felt associated with them.
