American denim brand Wrangler has teamed up with Adult Swim's popular cartoon series 'Rick and Morty' to launch the Wrangler x Rick and Morty Collection. The new clothing collection will include several items with designs inspired by the show.
The full collection includes four new garments: a denim jacket with custom artwork, a 100% cotton french terry pullover hoodie, and two different 100% cotton crew neck sweaters. Each piece features its own unique Rick and Morty graphic.
The new line is being released as part of Adult Sim's 75th-anniversary celebration, which will also be commemorated with a streaming event on November 12-13 on the company's Youtube channel. “As an iconic heritage brand, Wrangler has a strong history in pop culture, and we love to embrace opportunities to reach new fans," said Holly Wheeler, vice president of global brand marketing at Wrangler.
