About Wrangler:
The heritage of Wrangler goes back 70 years, when the brand was launched in the U.S.A. Wrangler was the first modern five-pocket jeans to be test-fitted and endorsed by real-life cowboys. Since then, Wrangler continues to inspire freedom, independence and adventure in its wearers.
In India, the brand has evolved to meet the needs of the ‘urban cowboy’ with a range of fashion apparel that is contemporary and fashionable yet rugged.
Wrangler has found a loyal consumer base in the Indian youth that swear by this unique fashion brand. This stylish denim brand is available at exclusive Wrangler stores, major department stores, leading apparel stores and popular e-commerce websites.
