In the 1960s, designers [[Mary Quant]] and [[Pierre Cardin]] worked with the company, whose products graced the heads of the rich and famous, including [[the Beatles]] and [[Arnold Palmer]], and later [[Diana, Princess of Wales]]. The company also supplied uniformed organisations such as the [[Scout Association]].<ref name=scotsman>{{Cite news |url=https://www.scotsman.com/news/a-beret-good-show-70-years-of-kangol-2452187 |title=A beret good show: 70 years of Kangol |date=26 November 2008  |newspaper=[[The Scotsman]] |location=Edinburgh |access-date=19 August 2015}}</ref>

In the 1980s Kangol berets entered a new phase of fashion history with their adoption by members of the [[Hip hop music|hip-hop]] community, such as [[Grandmaster Flash]], [[Run-DMC]], [[LL Cool J]], [[Slick Rick]], [[Kangol Kid]] of [[UTFO]], and [[The Notorious B.I.G.]]

The brand was popularised even more by the 1991 movie ''[[New Jack City]]''. The release of more consciously stylish products in the 1990s such as the furgora (angora-wool mix) Spitfire, was helped by its presence upon the head of [[Samuel L. Jackson]] in 1997.<ref name=scotsman/> [[Kevin Eubanks]], bandleader for ''[[The Tonight Show with Jay Leno]]'', sported a Kangol beret on an almost nightly basis.

In 2009, [[Eminem]] wore the Cotton Twill Army Cap Kangol hat on his ''[[Beautiful (Eminem song)|Beautiful]]'' video.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgT1AidzRWM | archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211211/lgT1AidzRWM| archive-date=2021-12-11 | url-status=live|title=Eminem - Beautiful (Official Music Video) |author=EminemMusic |date=25 November 2009 |website=YouTube |access-date=6 January 2019}}{{cbignore}}</ref> As of 2024, Eminem's main hat style has been Kangol's army caps.
