Kangol Autumn/Winter 2014 Lookbook Video from KANGOL HEADWEAR on Vimeo.
Kangol® was born British but raised on the streets of New York. Its inclusion in the birth of the hip hop phenomenon, as well as other era defining musical movements have made Kangol® the most influential and famously recognised global headwear brand of all time. Celebrating Kangol’s iconic Bermuda Casual and the part it played in the Hip Hop movement a new Winter Bermuda fabric has been developed for the first time. Also for the first time the Casual will be sold in black only with three different logo colours.


This collection takes it inspiration from music sub cultures such as Punk, Ska, 2 Tone, Northern Soul and of course Hip Hop, all of which have defined their eras. Punk with its DIY or
customisation which inspired the newspaper style CUT+PASTE print available as an all over
pattern and the border pattern on a Bandanna, plus the ladder stitch Run group with its pop colour Nylon lining. Northern Soul music with the amazing dance moves and the patches to show which All Nighters you had attended. Giving recognition to this movement Kangol® has created its own All Nighter patches that have been applied to the flat brim Links and a chunky knit cuff beanie.

Using both elements of our history, New York and London feature throughout the collection with the use of Nylon fabric as both a lining and main fabric. The name Nylon is a combination of NY and LONdon, which makes it the perfect Kangol® fabrication. A heavy canvas effect Nylon was used in the Bad Habit group that features an external pocket with the new ‘Bad Habit’ logo. The sleek Nylon fabrication used for the Zipper styles with the pop colour chunky zip pocket is a
direct contrast. In the Subway print you can see a partial Union Jack plus Stars and Stripes flags hidden amongst other typically British or American symbols. The striking pattern is available in a Supre, Reversible Bucket hat and a knitted jacquard beanie. The NYC Subway Links was
inspired by the signage familiar to every New Yorker and features our ‘Raised on the Streets of New York’ heritage on the front logo and a typical shout of ‘Take it Outside’ on the back of the hat.

Our collaboration with Disney® continues, the six piece collection features two distinct
patterns. The first is a Camo inspired print with overlapping elements of Mickey Mouse and the Kangol® Kangaroo, the pattern is available in a Cap, Bucket and knitted jacquard Beanie with multi coloured pom. The second is a paint drip pattern that sees Mickey’s hand drawing the eyelets onto the Links and Supre, with the Kangol® logo embroidered in the Disney® font. There is also a knitted Beret with multi coloured pom and the new Kangol® x Disney® woven two colour logo that features the Kangaroo on the left and Mickey’s head on the right.
