WRANGLER 13MWZ(late 1960s)

 It is 13MWZ that appeared as the successor model of 11MWZ in the 1960s, and one that seems to be the one of the late 1960s that used left twill denim. The details are unchanged from previous Wrangler jeans. Although in unused condition with gluing, the dyeing of the fabric is noticeably much thinner than in either the earlier or later periods.

Over 14oz left twill denim. The dyeing is thin throughout, but it is thought to be due to the fact that the weft is well visible. Compared to Levi's denim from the same period, the nips are noticeable.
