Jeans

The origin of jeans, known as "Jeans" in English, was first recorded in 1567. It is the title of trousers worn by merchant sailors from the port city of Italy (Genoa), which is called "or" Genoese "Genes.

Since 1860s, the name "Jeans" has been officially adopted by Levi company. Before that, people call it "Waist High Over all" and "trousers" (Pantaloons).


When it comes to jeans, people will naturally think of the gold rush in the US in 1849. The first batch of immigrants who set foot on the mainland of the United States could be said to be poor and white. They had to work hard.

Strong labor makes clothes very easy to wear, especially in 1849 when miners swarm into California, forming the famous gold rush at that time.

Because of the very easy breakage of fabrics, people are eager to have a wearable garment. In this context, solid and durable jeans emerge as the times require.

Lewis Te Laws (Levi Strauss) is widely recognized as the inventor of jeans.

In 1850, he founded the Levi company (

Levi`s

The 501 Jeans produced are the originator of the world's known jeans.

In the mid 30s, almost all the jeans worn in the Midwestern agricultural belt were first brought to the bustling city east of the Mississippi River. From then on, jeans began to enter the ranks of fashion clothing.


During the Second World War, the US authorities designated the jeans as the uniform of the US Army, and a large number of jeans went deep into the hinterland of Europe with the Allied forces.

After the war, the soldiers returned to the United States, where a large number of jeans were put on sale locally, because the trousers were beautiful, practical, durable and cheap, so they were very popular locally.

As a result, European local clothing manufacturers are competing to copy the original products of the United States, thus making Jeans Popular and popular in Europe.

The entertainment industry of Hollywood has played an important role in promoting the international popularity of jeans.

The famous films of 50s, such as "unprovoked rebellion", "dream of heaven" and so on, are all wearing comfortable and generous jeans. Under the influence of big stars leading the tide, jeans become a sign of fashion at that time.


In the impression of people, the Classic Jeans should be: indigo blue, cotton twill, buttocks tight, middle and low waist short crotch design, trouser legs are slightly smaller, check buttons, check lines, patch bags, nail labels and other decorations.

However, the earliest jeans are not what we think they are.

Levi, the originator of jeans, has 501 Jeans that can be said to be jeans.

Works.


Let's go back to the evolution of jeans from birth to classic.


1855 - the first jeans have only one back pocket and no York.


1872 - metal rivet was used to reinforce the force part of jeans.


1873 - jeans are changed from grey to indigo.

The rear bags are decorated with orange double arched stitches.


1886 - changing the design of the rear waist sign from the dwarf to two horses.


1890 - plus a pocket watch and post York.


1905 - plus second back bags, so the jeans are fixed in five pockets.


1922 -- a belt loop is added to the waist of the trousers.


1937 - the rivet of the back pocket is hidden in it.


1941 - cancelled the rivet at the lower part of the front of the jeans.

During World War II, the bow and bag rivets were removed, while the double arched traces of the latter bags were replaced by printed similar figures.

A laurel leaf replaced the symbol "L.S.&Co.S.F.Cal." on the button.


1947 -- the arch line reappears.


1950 - for the fashion trend, trouser tubes are cut into a more thin style.


1955 - start producing 501 Jeans with zippers.


1959 - developed jeans that are pre shrinking.


1966 - the rear pocket angle is replaced by a bar short track instead of rivet.


1971 - red signboard changed from Xiang "LEVI`S" to "Levi`s".


1983 - due to the improvement of loom technology, the width of the door widened and the red trousers edge disappeared.


Entering the 90s, the rapid development of science and technology has greatly improved the technology of making jeans, and the accumulation of time has made the jeans a perfect structure today.
