- Episode 093 Amanda Kimes Founder, Kimes Ranch Jeans. Superior Fit. Classic style. Western Uncomplicated…Join me and Amanda Kimes as we discuss what it takes to build a brand.The Brand
With a dream to create THE JEAN that was missing from the western world, Matt and Amanda sourced every element of their production-finding the best team of cutters, sewers, and washers until their product was undeniably the best fit and quality. They created a jean versatile enough to crossover from western to everyday wear, with a medium waist line for women that allowed high enough coverage while riding but low enough rise to mimic a fashionable street jean. Their men’s jean took on details that others had not considered, like a knife pocket and a more attractive back pocket placement.
MissionWe are the western wear leaders of quality in style, product and service.
VisionWe intend to bring Western back to its roots by creating fashionable jeans with a classic feel. We are leading the trend by taking our fashion industry background and blending it with our western roots to make western fashion current. We are where the fashion world meets the western world. We are western wear that transcends.
Value PropositionSuperior Fit. Classic style. Western Uncomplicated.
Western the way it was. Where jeans were a timeless staple and simplicity and durability made them the cowboy’s must- have. Kimes Ranch has made function and fit a priority, making our classic jean a standout necessity for all cowboys and girls. We provide the canvas for your unique western style.

Join me as I talk with the two Cowgirls of the 12 Contestants on the “Ultimate Cowboy Showdown” premiering October 14th on INSP TV , Hosted by Trace Adkins.
J STORME JANNISE
Fourth-generation Texas cowboy, J Storme, wants to show the nation that women can do anything men can do. She grew up on her family’s cattle ranch and is determined to keep the tradition going by following in her grandfather’s footsteps. J Storme studied agriculture in college and competes in ranch rodeos with much success. J Storme now helps in the daily management her family’s ranch and the rebuilding of their operation after surviving devastating losses from hurricane Harvey. Small, but mighty, her grandma showed her how to stay tough in a male-dominated industry.
TARA POWERS
Growing up on a small farm in Iowa, Tara learned how to be a cowboy from her biggest inspiration, her father. Her work on a feedlot in Oklahoma with over 80,000 head of cattle allows her to do what she loves every single day: be the cowboy she was born to be. This former agriculture teacher’s motivation to appear on the show is to prove that women are just as much cowboys as men.
