Foam-Dye entirely replaces the traditional water drums and chemical baths of traditional
indigo dyeing, reducing by 100
percent the amount of water* required to turn denim that
beloved shade of indigo blue. The new dyeing process also reduces energy use
and waste by more than 60 percent compared to the traditional denim dyeing
process. The
Indigood™ products will be featured in the ICONS Collection, giving consumers
access to Wrangler’s most iconic products with the highest level of
sustainability available on the denim market today. In addition, with
absolutely no compromise to quality, the Indigood™ products include recycled cotton,
laser and ozone finishing. The collection includes both male and female jeans,
shirts and jackets in dark and light shades.

About
Wrangler: The
heritage of Wrangler goes back 70 years, when the brand was launched in the
U.S.A. Wrangler was the first modern five-pocket jeans to be test-fitted and
endorsed by real-life cowboys. Since then, Wrangler continues to inspire
freedom, independence and adventure in its wearers. In
India, the brand has evolved to meet the needs of the ‘urban cowboy’ with a range
of fashion apparel that is contemporary and fashionable yet rugged.
Wrangler
has found a loyal consumer base in the Indian youth that swear by this unique
fashion brand. This stylish denim brand is available at exclusive Wrangler
stores, major department stores, leading apparel stores and popular e-commerce
websites.
