"Cody has been with the brand for many years. He wears Wrangler day in and day out. With his authentic background in ranching and rodeo, partnering with him on this classic shirt collection was the natural next step," said Allen Montgomery, vice president & general manager of Wrangler western. "His signature style and genuine connection to the western lifestyle makes this collection stand out in a market where we're already receiving a lot of buzz and excitement."
Inspired by his experiences as a cowboy and performer, these pieces are tailored to meet the demands of Cody's dynamic lifestyle both on and off the stage. Johnson helped carefully select details of fabric, pattern, and functionality, working together with Wrangler's design team. The collection features a classic, tailored fit, mitered cuffs, hidden button-down collars, signature CoJo details like cuff embroidery, logo'd buttons, and grosgrain neck ribbon, and delivers a style that can easily be dressed up or down.
"These shirts are designed to make you feel like a cowboy and look like a million bucks," said Cody Johnson. "I put a lot of time and heart into every detail and trusted Wrangler to help build something authentically western and effortlessly stylish."
The launch of Wrangler x Cody Johnson further solidifies Wrangler as the premier choice for artists with the brand's deep-rooted connection to country music. The new partnership adds to an esteemed roster of endorsements including Lainey Wilson, Jon Pardi, and joins the ranks of Wrangler's sought-after collection with George Strait by Wrangler collection that launched over two decades ago.
Retailing for $59.99, Wrangler x Cody Johnson is now available for purchase online at Wrangler.com, as well as in select retailers nationwide.
