Manly Bands Continues Unique Licensing Agreement with Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey

Men’s apparel company partners with legendary whiskey distillery to repurpose famed barrels

LINDON, UT  Feb. 7, 2024  Manly Bands shows off their unique licensing partnership with Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey with a signature line of men’s rings.

This collaboration represents Manly Bands’ expansion outside of the wedding industry to incorporate branded materials. This movement caters to the increasing demand for stylish and non-traditional wedding and fashion ring options for men, highlighted in an almost 20% increase in rings sold by Manly Bands in 2023.

Crafted from the wood of the iconic white oak barrels used to mature Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey, these rings showcase unique designs conceptualized and named by Co-Founder Michelle Luchese, as well as Product Director, Chris Bright. With nods to expert Coopers, key ingredients, and the history of the brand, Manly Bands’ collection of 26 rings for men (and women) captures the essence of the first registered distillery in America.

The collection pays homage to the resilience and longevity of Jack Daniel’s, featuring the following designs:

• The Cooper is for those who cherish the tradition and satisfaction of creating something enduring. Crafted from Black Zirconium, this ring features a Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey Barrel and Amber Colored Glass Inlay, a tribute to the true master of craftsmanship.
• The Jasper, named after Jack Daniel’s founder, Jasper "Jack" Daniel, this Black Zirconium ring adds some class with its 14K gold and whiskey barrel inlays. Its dark exterior calls for the guy with strength and class, who’s not afraid of anything.
• The Distiller turns the ordinary into the extraordinary. Made from Damascus Steel, this ring boasts a Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey Barrel Inlay and Cerakote Sleeve. With a domed design and a polished finish, it’s a magical representation of transformation.

Crafted from Black Zirconium, this ring showcases a Gibeon Meteorite Inlay and Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey Barrel Sleeve. Its beveled design and satin finish is a bold statement of individuality.
• The Tennessee is for those who proudly take extra steps to achieve excellence. Made from Black Zirconium, this ring features Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Whiskey Barrel and Genuine Black Dinosaur Bone Inlays. Its flat design with a polished finish makes it a perfect 10.

Michelle Luchese expressed, "We wanted to capture the unique history of Jack Daniel’s and celebrate its authentic spirit, and how it has survived in a dry county AND through Prohibition. That kind of commitment resonates with the essence of marriage!"
