Samuel L. Jackson’s Kangol collection is a thing of legend. A man of unassuming style, he’s known for his big voice on the big screen and has pulled together some big outfits off it.
Famously worn by Jackson more often than not back to front, the Kangol flat cap is a versatile piece dressed up or down, paired with everything from structured suiting and blazers to bomber jackets and jumpers.
If you’ve got the swagger for it, try Jackson’s signature accessory this winter.

Jackson sported a complementary deep blue Kangol-blazer combo when he stopped by SiriusXM Studios in 2019 for an interview.
A rare instance of Jackson wearing the flat cap the conventional way, here he’s gone for a textured blue cap to complement a midnight blue tuxedo at the Tyler Perry Studios grand opening gala in 2019.
At a more casual affair, Jackson has paired a dashing light grey Kangol with a matching blazer over a blue and white henley to the daytime red carpet premiere of The Legend of Tarzan in 2016.
A slight departure from the Kangol, Jackson wore a black slouch beanie paired with thick-framed maroon glasses to complement his patterned blazer at the The Last Full Measure Atlanta red carpet screening in January 2020.
