The AG Adriano Goldschmied brand, founded in 2000, partnered long-time denim guru, Adriano Goldschmied, and the industry leader in quality and innovative jean manufacturing, Yui Ku, of Koos Manufacturing of South Gate, California. Starting out as a small boutique line the first couple of years, AG has since become synonymous with great quality, design, and state-of-the-art washes.
