Allegra Frank:
Much of the backlash is playing out on social media, where Wrangler has received thousands of comments from customers expressing anger and “disappointment.” (It is unclear if customers have also been contacting the company via other, less public methods; Vox has reached out to Wrangler for comment.) And much of the current conversation revolves around how Wrangler seems to be promoting inclusivity by branching out from its reputation as a brand worn by cowboys and farmers.
What the hell is wrong with people. First of all, we are talking about jeans. Jeans! I gurantee half the people complaining about this shit aren’t farmers or cowboys themselves.
How silly of me to think regular people or even black people wear jeans or jeans made by Wrangler. 🙄
I’m glad to see Wrangler is standing by it at least.
