History of the jeans.

Jean was allegedly one of the garments that we were the legacy of precolonial America, were used by minority groups in Northern America and were exploited by men "whites" that have adapted. At first they were also blue, but in a much softer material, obviously without pockets, adjusted by the waist with a rope that is passed through holes performed at the edge of the garment. The denim fabric was first used to make jeans when a U.S. military wanted to make a cloth that then made up the tents.

Then in Genoa (Italy) at the time that this was an independent republic and a naval power. The first jeans, as we know them today, were for the Genoese Navy because it required an all-purpose pants for sailors that could be both dry and wet, and whose legs could easily remangar not to obstruct the legs to clean the deck or swimming. Wash these pants were dragging large nets in the boat and the seawater left white. The first denim was originating from Nîmes (France) and hence the name, (denim). The name comes from the name of jeans in French Genoa (Genoa), which has a similar pronunciation to that of jeans. The jeans were developed in United States around 1872. Levi Strauss was then a merchant who lived in San Francisco, thought about using tarps that were used in the manufacture of tents for work clothes for miners, clothing remnants life to the weather and the weight in pockets of ore found, were all used to brown the shops and back pockets. Shortly after the Genoese took charge of dyeing the fabric in a distinctive blue indigo from India. One of the customers of Levi Strauss, a tailor who bought rolls of cloth named Jacob Davis, tired of buying fabric to mend torn pants, he thought to reinforce with copper rivets at points of particular stress, such as the ends of the pockets or the base of the fly. As Jacobs had no money to patent the idea, proposed a deal with Levi. Levi and accepted May 20, 1873 received patent # 139,121 from the Patent and Trademark Office and U.S. born jean as we know it.
