RIVET, the global media authority serving the international denim industry, released its Winter issue today, with rising country music star Riley Green as the cover story. In it, the 35-year-old “I Hope She’s Drinkin’ Tonight” singer shares how he stays true to his Jacksonville, Ala. roots and how denim is a natural part of his everyday uniform—whether he’s taking the stage or toiling on the farm.
Leveraging the editorial staffs of Rivet, Sourcing Journal and WWD, the issue also includes need-to-know street style, celebrity trends and denim-adjacent info, plus the usual updates on innovations, mills, sustainability and the movers and shakers moving the jeanswear industry forward.
