Comments on: Wrangler Jeans Sell for 49.99 Euros in Germany – WHAT?! http://www.denimblog.com/2008/07/wrangler-jeans-sell-for-4999-euros-in-germany-what/ Sun, 19 May 2013 13:28:39 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Michael Davis http://www.denimblog.com/2008/07/wrangler-jeans-sell-for-4999-euros-in-germany-what/comment-page-1/#comment-15656 Michael Davis Tue, 29 Sep 2009 00:28:53 +0000 http://www.denimblog.com/what-were-they-thinking/wrangler-jeans-sell-for-4999-euros-in-germany-what.html#comment-15656 Buddy, not only do you sound like a snob, you sound like a precious snob who thinks jeans have always been something for pretty people to pose around in. There are still folks out and around (and not just in the flyover states) who wear jeans because they are tough, easy to care for, and easy to move around in (that's actually moving around, as in working.) Jeans serve all kinds of functions (and remember, their functional charms came first.) You seem to think they are a lot more limited than that.

They're mostly worn by blue-collar guys who need a durable pant that will hold up to a lot of wear. Hardy-har-har....

There is also that premium Wrangler line they came out with here a few years ago where they were trying to sell them for $100 something. They were supposed to look like a vintage pair with the hue "W" and large leather patch. Those did not catch on, you see them in discount stores for 30-40 now But…

I see a lot of people on campus wear them, especially on football game days, paired with our school colors and cowboy boots/hats. When I spoke to a friend who wore them, it seems like Wranglers are worn more as a symbol of the cowboy/western image than anything else. Certain cuts and fits don't look all that bad, although I would never want my bf wearing them :P This is pretty embarrassing to mention, but where I live, in none other than Cowboy Country (Texas), Wranglers are still huge among the guys.
