FORT WORTH, Texas – The Ariat Texas Rattlers, the Metroplex’ professional bull riding team and 2023 PBR (Professional Bull Riders) Teams World Champions, today announced an innovative collaboration with Dallas streetwear brand True Brvnd.
The veteran owned and operated True Brvnd launched in 2020, striving to create Dallas’ true brand, representing both the city’s culture and community, and has since exploded in popularity. The partnership with the Ariat Texas Rattlers marks True Brvnd’s first foray into the Western lifestyle as they work to fuse the booming cowboy culture with the unique flavor of Dallas. The partnership will come to life through two limited-edition hats that pay homage to the cowboy-way-of-life by featuring a trucker style.
The Ariat Texas Rattlers are the latest professional sports team to join forces with True Brvnd, alongside the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys and Dak Prescott, MLB’s Texas Rangers, NBA’s Dallas Mavericks, NHL’s Dallas Stars MLS’ FC Dallas, UFL’s Arlington Renegades and WNBA’s Dallas Wings.
“You ready? We goin’ West,” said True Brvnd Founder and Owner Sang Truong.
“True Brvnd has built themselves into a brand that is synonymous with the unique culture that is Dallas-Fort Worth. We’re thrilled to join forces, melding Cowboy mystique with their hip streetwear vibe,” said Texas Rattlers General Manager Chad Blankenship. “True Brvnd has already built successful partnerships with the Dallas Cowboys and Texas Rangers, among other North Texas teams. We’re elated that the 2023 PBR Teams Champion Texas Rattlers have joined that roster, as we bring our fans yet another way to display their team pride.”
