It must be a class issue. She thinks Wranglers are the KMart of jeans.That's the thing. She's not snooty. That's why I'm confused. She'll buy me jeans from Old Navy or Target without thinking twice. But the line has been drawn on Wranglers. I told her I was thinking about buying a pair just to see what the big deal is. I was told that no.
For me if you say stylish and jeans in the same sentence you are probably a slacks kind of guy anyway. Out here in flyover over country they are standard issue with a pair of roper boots, a plaid shirt and a belt buckle the size of a dish plate.
Some chicks don't dig it, but some chicks do.

There are many, many styles of Wranglers.
Check here for 8 pages of them. A real treat too, as those models really can fill out a pair of jeans.
You can spend over $50 and get a high end jean, no doubt endorsed by a rodeo cowboy or something, but the $20 pairs aren't too bad. 30 years ago, Wranglers were pretty ridiculous looking, but now I don't see anything wrong with them. They just look like jeans to me. Maybe I'm getting old. Certainly, they work just fine for Brett
I assume it's like anything else. If you are tall, in shape, have money, and the jeans fit, they will look just fine.
I'd also think there's some ironic hipster appeal to them, but I wouldn't know that.

Are you saying the U shape is not more comfortable than the V shape?I don't think you're missing anything, but your curiosity is getting the best of you. Marketing.That's the thing. She's not snooty.

I've never watched the commercials and wanted to go out and buy a pair of Wranglers, but I'm already a manly man.

https://img1.etsystatic.com/000/0/5922343/il_fullxfull.178741477.jpg this is what I think of when I hear Wrangler jeans. Growing up in high school everyone wore Levi's because Wranglers were considered generic jeans.
Wranglers are to Converse
Levi's are to Nike

Lucky makes some very nice basic jeans that are cut better than cheap jeans, but aren't overly showy with stitching and such.
I don't mind a little pocket work on some jeans, but those are ####### terrible.

What about Lee jeans? In between Levi's and Wranglers on the status spectrum?

Liked but had to unlike.... Converse have always been cool. Even when idiots like me wore different colored ones on each foot in Jr. High school.

wranglers were never the cool jeans. everyone who wanted to be "cool" wore Levi's. "ropers" wore Wranglers and wannabe cowboys.

I can't remember ever owning a pair of jeans or cords that was not Levi's.

They are made by the same company...and both have different levels of product...from Mass (Walmart) and up. Jeans wear is a gigantic segment in apparel and growing...Lee and Wrangler do a little different things in the same retail space.I would consider Lee and Wrangler on the same level.
