Medium stonewash indigo, even and soft, faded to that classic blue-jean blue. Wrangler Cowboy Cut in the high-rise women's block, made in the USA, 100% cotton — W-stitch pockets, leather patch, brass button, the long rise that sits at the natural waist. Sister to the dark pair, lighter and more lived-in. The high-waist western fit in a small size.
The Story
Wrangler's Cowboy Cut traces to the 13MWZ, designed in 1947 by tailor "Rodeo Ben" Lichtenstein for Blue Bell and refined across thirteen rodeo-tested prototypes — still the official ProRodeo competition jean. This is the Made-in-USA women's high-rise version, in a softer medium stonewash.
