True Religion makes American denim built on heavy contrast stitching, the horseshoe logo and a flap-pocket back yoke, with Ricky and Billy fits alongside logo tees, hoodies and joggers. Founded in Vernon, California by then-couple Jeff Lubell and Kym Gold, it rode the 2000s premium-denim boom, was bought by TowerBrook Capital in 2013 for roughly $835 million, then restructured through Chapter 11 twice, in 2017 and 2020. It now operates under private-equity ownership with Michael Buckley as CEO, courting a younger hip-hop audience at lower price points.
