Today Irving thrives as a diverse city, shaped by its suburban growth and ties to the Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex. Its legacy reflects resilience, community, and ambition. Our Irving designs capture this story, combining the longhorn and star motif with vintage style to honor both farm origins and suburban energy. They invite you to explore the Irving collection and carry forward a reminder of Texas grit, optimism, and pride. Irving’s story embodies transformation, making its retro motif a fitting emblem of resilience and progress in the Lone Star State.
Irving was founded in 1903 by Otis Brown and J.O. Schulze, who saw opportunity between Dallas and Fort Worth. Named after author Washington Irving, the settlement balanced rural roots with aspirations of growth. Families farmed corn, wheat, and cotton, while the rail line carried goods to larger markets. Irving’s founding reflected Texas grit and ambition: settlers building livelihoods on prairie land, proud of independence yet eager to connect to booming nearby cities. This foundation of resilience and vision gave Irving its character, preparing it for explosive suburban growth in the mid-twentieth century.
