Black Kangol Wool 504 Wool Cap – The Iconic One
The Black Kangol Wool 504 is one of the most iconic caps from the famous Kangol brand.
Created in 1954, the 504 has spanned generations with an instantly recognizable silhouette: a flat, rounded crown, a short visor and the famous embroidered Kangol kangaroo at the back.
In this black version made of 100% virgin wool, it offers warmth, comfort and elegance for fall and winter. Its timeless black color makes it just as easy to pair with a classic outfit as with a more urban look.
Kangol 504: an iconic cap since 1954
The Wool 504 holds a special place in Kangol's history.
Introduced in 1954, it takes its name from the block number used to create its shape: the 504 block.
This silhouette gradually became one of the British brand's signatures and an essential reference among flat caps.
More than 70 years after its introduction, the 504 remains appreciated for its balance of tradition, simplicity and contemporary style.
A seamless construction characteristic of the Wool 504
The Wool 504 stands apart from a traditional flat cap made up of several fabric panels.
Its wool structure is knitted and then shaped without seams, creating this particularly smooth and recognizable silhouette.
The crown naturally conforms to the head while retaining enough volume to allow different ways of wearing it.
100% virgin wool to face the cool seasons
This version of the 504 is made of 100% virgin wool.
Naturally suited to cool temperatures, wool provides warmth and comfort while retaining a beautiful shape.
The Black Kangol 504 is therefore particularly recommended for fall and winter.
An easy-to-wear black cap
Black is certainly one of the most versatile colors in the Kangol 504 collection.
Understated and timeless, it pairs equally well with a wool coat, jacket, leather jacket, trench coat or a more casual outfit.
This versatility allows the Black Wool 504 to move easily from a classic look to a more urban style.
The famous Kangol kangaroo
At the back of the cap is the famous embroidered Kangol kangaroo logo.
Having become one of the brand's visual signatures over the decades, it makes this iconic cap instantly recognizable.
A 504 to wear forwards... or backwards
The Kangol 504 can be worn traditionally with the visor facing forward.
For a more urban silhouette, it can also be worn with the visor facing backward, making the famous Kangol kangaroo more visible.
Two ways to wear the same cap, which partly explain this model's exceptional longevity.

Kangol Wool 504 size guide

How do you choose your Kangol 504 size?
Measure your head circumference with a tape measure, about 1 cm above the eyebrows and ears, without pulling too tight.
The 504 can then be worn in two ways: fairly close to the head for a compact silhouette, or slightly looser to emphasize its distinctive volume.
If you are between two sizes, we generally recommend choosing the larger size for greater comfort.

How do you wear a Black Kangol 504?

It pairs particularly well with a gray or camel wool coat, a jacket, trench coat, leather jacket or denim outfit.
For a more contemporary style, turn it around and wear it with the visor facing backward to showcase the embroidered kangaroo more prominently.
How should you care for your Wool 504?
Wool requires delicate care. To remove surface dust, use gentle brushing.
