Black denim worn down to a soft, smoky charcoal — the way black jeans go when they're actually lived in. Cowboy cut, long rise, straight leg, the whole western package in a color that goes with everything. The "W" still rides the back pockets, the leather patch still holds.
The Story
This is the black version of Wrangler's 13MWZ — the cowboy cut Rodeo Ben designed in 1947 and the brand has built more or less unchanged ever since. The "WK" on the tag is Wrangler's code for the black colorway. Same saddle-built rise and high pockets, just in black instead of indigo.
