ისტორია
Founded in 1958 by Giulio and Fiorenzo Fratini in Barberino di Mugello, Italy, Rifle was a pioneer in the European mass-production of denim. The brand gained significant cultural traction during the 1980s, particularly in Eastern Bloc countries where it became a symbol of Western fashion. Throughout its history, Rifle contributed to the democratization of denim in Europe before facing financial insolvency and bankruptcy proceedings in late 2020.
