Montana State goes 'Wrangler'

Wrangler, MSU debut new clothing line

Bozeman has always been the heart of Wrangler country in Montana.

Now it's official: Montana State University is partnering with Wrangler, the iconic western brand, for a new apparel line.

Wrangler, most known for its jeans and western wear, is producing a line of MSU-branded clothing, including shirts, hats and T-shirts. The new line will be available exclusively at the MSU Bookstore.

The collegiate collection launched a year ago with schools in the South. MSU will now be a featured university in the second year of the collection.

The collaboration with Wrangler comes two years after MSU launched a line of clothing with another iconic western brand, the fishing company Simms, to produce shirts and hats with the trademarked MSU brand, Trout U, which are also available in the MSU Bookstore.
