"Wrangler was born in 1947 in Greensboro, North Carolina, USA. Interestingly, there's a long history before Wrangler got its start, including a predecessor company founded in 1904 called the 'Hudson Overall Company,' which changed its name to 'BLUE BELL' in 1919.
"This BLUE BELL mark is still found on the Wrangler logo today, so many people may be familiar with it. It was a workwear brand that later merged with another workwear brand, 'BIG BEN.'
"Later, BLUE BELL acquired a company called 'CASEY JONES,' which owned the Wrangler label. From there, they entered the cowboy market and Wrangler got its start as a western wear brand."
"The term 'Wrangler' is a kind of 'shepherd,' referring to workers on a ranch, hinting at its cowboy-oriented background. The Wrangler is notable for its logo known as the 'rope logo.' In the early days, the letter 'W' in the logo was 'inward coil,' but this was only produced for a short period from 1947 to 1950. After that, it became the 'outward coil,' which most people commonly see today."
