BRANDING WRANGLER

Since the launch of its very first jeans, Wrangler has transmitted the virus of jeans addiction to people all over the world. The13MWZ style, introduced in 1947, is still available worldwide.

The most recent campaign "Stunt" executes the We Are Animals-idea in the form of stunt videos and has been critically discussed all over the media. But have a look yourself, and see if Wranglers newest campaign can transmit the virus...
