Kangol Caps

Hey everyone,

I recently bought a couple of Kangol 504 caps. I was inspired by the Notorious BIG's famous Kangol cap; like him, I have a big head and wide face (see below). I am a size xl and as you can see, that wide 504 brim is just wide enough for my big face.

Anyway, do any of you have experience with other models from Kangol with similarly wide brims? Or perhaps other brands of caps with decent quality and wider brims/peaks?

(If any of you are selling something like this please let me know!)

GThe first hat I wore regularly was a Kangol; went through three of them, all black corduroy, at university and after. Mine were the 'Greek fisherman' / 'rail engineer' type. The flatcap type like yours is a very English style that has been atound sicne, I believe, the sixties. My first Kangol was when they were still made in England, though tbh I haven't noticed any drop in quality since they switched production to China. They've licenced the name to a range of companies now, so I don't know who makes what, but anything I've handled is still good.
