details:
Rare mid-century women’s western denim by Ranch Maid, crafted in sturdy indigo denim. Designed with a flattering high waist, side metal zip closure, and pearl snap hip pockets — an iconic western detail that speaks to the 1950s rodeo and ranch lifestyle. The label reads “A TEX★TEX Denim” — Tex-Tex was a Texas-based denim manufacturer that supplied fabric and garments for smaller western brands.Ranch Maid focused specifically on women’s western slacks, jeans, and sometimes shirts. Unlike Wrangler or Lee, which were heavily marketed to men and rodeo culture, Ranch Maid carved a niche as a brand that celebrated the image of the ranch wife, cowgirl, or rodeo queen.The branding — wagon wheels, western lettering, and “Westernwear” on the label — positioned Ranch Maid in line with the booming postwar fascination with cowboy life.Production was comparatively limited and regional, mostly sold in the American South and West.
