Wrangler x Made In

Wrangler x Made In

Debuting June 3rd , the Wrangler x Made In Collection delivers versatile apparel and accessories for seamless transitions from the kitchen to front of house. The 4-piece apparel drop includes a quintessentially Wrangler rinsed denim chef chore jacket, its rich indigo hue a testament to timeless style and enduring quality, complete with golden embroidery and antiqued hardware. A one-of-a-kind cotton indigo twill chef shirt combines the craftsmanship of the chef-favorite cookware brand with the versatility of denim to help take on the heat and the unexpected. A soft cotton crew-neck collab t-shirt displays the collaborative logos on the chest and a vintage-inspired graphic print across the back. And a denim apron rounds out the apparel, coming fully equipped with two lower patch pockets, Wrangler’s classic ‘W’ stitching, utensil slots across the chest, and a removable strap with leather tabs and extra snaps for a comfortable fit. This apron is designed to handle anything, from bustling kitchens to the untamed wilderness.

The collection also includes three of Made In’s award-winning full tang and fully forged French knives—a Chef Knife, a Utility Knife, and a Paring Knife. The unique denim micarta knife handles in this collection are a testament to innovation, incorporating authentic Wrangler denim into Made In’s timeless knife design. Available individually or as a three-piece set, these knives are more than mere tools; they are heirlooms in the making, ready to become an extension of your passion.

This Wrangler x Made In collection isn't just about utility; it's about embracing a lifestyle where craftsmanship, quality, and effortless style intertwine. It's an invitation to savor every moment, whether you're orchestrating a culinary symphony or sharing stories around a well-set table. This collection is poised to become a cherished part of your journey, a testament to the beauty found in both the making and the sharing.

Leading the charge as the faces of the collection are Chef Daisy Ryan and Greg Ryan, co-founders of the award-winning Bells Restaurant in Los Alamos, California. Known for their elevated take on French bistro fare and California-grown hospitality, the Ryans, both of whom grew up on a ranch, embody the spirit of the collaboration: hands-on, hard-working, and effortlessly cool.

“Wrangler has been synonymous with American craftsmanship for generations. Partnering with Made In brings that legacy into a new arena,” said John Meagher, Vice President of Global Brand Marketing at Wrangler. “This collection celebrates the shared grit and style of life in the kitchen and on the range.”

Made In, based in Austin, Texas, brings four generations of expertise to the table. What began as a heritage kitchen supply family business has evolved into a globally trusted cookware brand, designed with chefs, and used in more than 2,000 restaurants worldwide. Their tools are crafted in the USA and Europe using top-tier raw materials and the industry’s most skilled artisans.

“Teaming up with an iconic American brand like Wrangler is a dream,” said Jake Kalick, Co-Founder and President of Made In. “We share an obsession with raw material, craftsmanship, and making things that work. Creating something at the intersection of their material expertise and the fifth-generation bladesmith who crafts our knives was a truly exciting period of innovation. The Wrangler x Made In Collection is built to last, whether in the kitchen or out on the range, and made for chefs, pitmasters, and backyard legends who demand timeless quality in every detail.”

This exclusive collection is designed for chefs, creators, and culinary adventurers alike—anyone who believes great style should be part of every recipe. Whether you are cooking in a Michelin-starred kitchen or at a backyard cookout, the Wrangler x Made In collection delivers functional flair with an edge.

The collaboration will be available for purchase on Wrangler.com and MadeInCookware.com, with apparel prices ranging from $34.99 to $114.99, and the 3-piece knife set retailing for $369. Individual knife prices will range from $129-$189.
