Who is considered to be the inventor of denim jeans as we
know them today?
Answer / guest
Jeans history would be nothing without Levi Strauss. Levi
Strauss is credited with inventing jeans. Levi Strauss
emigrated with his family to New York in 1847. He moved to
San Francisco in the early 1850s and about 20 years later a
solvent Levi Strauss and a Nevada tailor joined forces
to patent an idea the tailor had for putting rivets on
stress points of workman's waist high overalls commonly
known as jeans. Levi Strauss chose to use the stronger
denim fabric and cotton duck, putting his own name on
the product. Later the duck fabric was dropped as consumers
found denim more comfortable, particularly after washing
creating the faded bloom on the indigo blue dyeing that we
all love. Eventually in the 1950s people asked for denim
jeans or just as often - Levi's jeans rather than waist
overalls. Other manufacturers began to produce jeans and
other brand names such as Lee Coopers and Wranglers also
became famous. Each brand is renowned for having a
particular cut.
