| Where to buy Wranglers | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Now many of my American readers, even though their local WalMart probably stocks those cheap red label Wranglers I'm not real wild about, will probably know where they can find a good, sturdy pair of the PRCA Cowboy Cut variety. All it takes is a quick trip through your Yellow Pages under Western Apparel. The Search option on Wrangler's homepage will also work, but it lists any store that sells any kind of Wrangler wear at all. But for those of you who would like to know for sure where you can get the goods, especially my European and Asian jeans freak buds, here are some places to go looking. |

| Online Their prices may not be the best, but they are probably your best bet on international orders. I would also recommend that you try to have them send you a paper copy of their catalog, as several of them have mouthwatering models showing off their boots & jeans. They also have actual retail stores. I highly recommend Rod's and Shepler's both, not for their inflated prices, but for their helpful and highly handsome staff. |

| Type Wrangler jeans in the search engine and see what you can find. Ebay sellers are a very friendly lot and I have bought several pairs of nicely broken-in jeans this way. Read carefully to make sure that the seller in question will ship internationally. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

This is a big old cowtown, fellas. New Orleans: Thrift City 4125 S.

San Antonio: all Goodwill outlets. San Francisco: My favorite store in the whole world-- Worn Out West 582 Castro St. Pell City, Alabama: Alabama Thrift Store US 231 1 mile south of I-20 exit Just a little east of Birmingham and an easy drive from Atlanta, this huge thrift mart sells those Cowboy Cuts for as little as $1.98 a pair. |
