Wrangler and Fender each have origin stories rooted in the creation of practical and functional products,” said Holly Wheeler, vice president global marketing - Wrangler. “As denim styles have evolved over the years through fits, finishes and function, the driving role guitar driven music has played in fashion is undeniable. We’re excited to have these two American icons join together to launch the Wrangler x Fender collection as we honor the artists and legends who have inspired us, and celebrate with the fans who have been moved by the music.”

For many musicians, Wrangler and Fender have been part of their musical and stylistic expression, making the guitars they’ve played and the blue jeans they’ve worn not just sought-after, but timeless tributes. True to the brands’ shared history of authentic connections with award-winning players, the Wrangler x Fender launch campaign features several notable faces from the music industry, including rock ‘n roll progeny and acclaimed fashion model Georgia May Jagger, country artist and songwriter Orville Peck, and country artist Stephanie Quayle.

“As trends in music and fashion continue to evolve, Fender remains at the forefront of championing new soundtracks to match new styles. Through partnering with Wrangler, Fender is able to inspire musicians, creatives and fashionistas alike,” said Richard Bussey, Vice President Accessories, Lifestyle and Licensing at Fender. “At its core, both music and fashion are about expressing your truest self. The exclusive Wrangler x Fender Collaboration forms a tightly woven bond between the music and fashion industries, inviting all generations of creatives to celebrate their personal flair.”

The Wrangler x Fender collection of styles features details designed to fit every musical preference including vintage-inspired graphic tees, fringe and paisley prints. The collection also features patched, distressed and classic denim with built-in guitar pick sleeves. Wrangler and Fender fans alike can also look forward to an expansion of the collection late this Summer, which will include unique guitar accessories featuring authentic Wrangler denim and materials. These co-branded accessories include straps, cases and picks ranging from $9.99 to $249.99 will be available on Fender.com and select dealers globally.
