The first Jeans were made in 1850, in the California gold rush. A man named Levi Strauss realized that the gold-diggers' normal trousers weren't strong enough for the work they had to do and were wearing Out quickly. Strauss had some strong canvas, which he was going to make into tents and wagon covers to sell to the workers. Instead, he made some trousers out of it and these became the first Jeans. They were brown and called the waist-high overall.
The trousers sold well, and Strauss began looking around for ways of making them even tougher. He found a material that was better than canvas—a durable cotton that was manufactured only in the south of France. In a town called Nimes, the material was denim—the name coming from the French for from "Nimes". Strauss ordered boat loads of this material and, to keep the colour consistent, had it all dyed indigo blue. The trousers became known as blue denims or blue jeans (the Word jean is thought to come from Genoa. Italian sailors from the port of Genoa wore trousers similar to jeans, on the big trading ships).
In the early days cowboys, farmers, miners and timber Jacks—all people associated with hard work—wore jeans. But there were a few design problems with the early styles—as cowboys discovered to their cost. When they crouched too close to the camp fire, the rivet (the metal button strengthening the jeans at the bottom of the fly) got too hot and became very uncomfortable. Levi didn't take much notice of the cowboys complaints until the 1940s, when a company official crouched too close to a camp fire and experienced the problem first-hand. The crotch rivet was soon removed.
In the fifties and sixties, jeans represented rebellion. Film stars like James Dean, Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe wore them, as did pop stars like the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.
Fashions changed in the seventies and jeans became flared—tight at the hip and wide at the bottom. They were very, very tight—if you could get the zip up while standing up, they weren't tight enough. You had to lie down on the bed to do them up; for a really skin-tight fit, people would lie in a bath in their jeans and wait for them to shrink!
As the trousers became more and more successful, other jeans manufacturers started up—such as Wrengler, Pepe and Lee.
But jeans have had their opponents, in some countries—such as the old Soviet Union—jeans became a prized status symbol of the West. They suggested that a Soviet citizen had either traveled abroad or had contacts in the West. So the authorities discouraged the wearing of jeans. And in Japan, a consumers' association adamantly refused to sell one manufacturer's fashionable ripped jeans because it felt these were interior and defective product!
