The Bozeman Fringe

Faux Fur. True Luxury.

THE MAKER

Woody Challenger

Après Ranch was born from a life lived between rural Georgia and Bozeman, Montana — where quiet country mornings meet wide-open skies, and comfort naturally becomes luxury.

I set out to create a jacket that could live in both worlds. A piece that feels as natural pulling into a ranch as it does walking into a bar. Faux fur. Real luxe.

Each Après Ranch jacket is hand knit and designed to be thrown on and lived in — with movement, warmth, texture, and confidence. A statement without spectacle. Comfort with character. 

The inspiration began 25 years ago with a sample fur coat I purchased at a trade show. It was the kind of jacket you never forgot. That original piece became the foundation for what would later become the Bozeman Fringe, designed in New York with faux fur fabric sourced in Georgia. 

Behind the brand is a lifelong love of fashion — shaped by years in the industry, from modeling and appearing on Project Runway, styling wardrobes for television, owning a fashion showroom, and opening a retail store of my own. After stepping away from the business, the pull of fashion never left.

Returning to the industry at age 55, the vision was simple: create something timeless, unique, wearable, and unforgettable.

Made for days that start somewhere and nights that end somewhere else. Launching May 2026 The Bozeman Fringe from Aprés Ranch is just the beginning…
