The Blue Bloods of Blue Jeans

Let's get one thing straight - If your spending $150.00 or more on a pair of jeans, it's not for durability.  Long before stonewashing and distressing and spandex, basic Levi's were the clothing of choice of coal miners. These days the most rigorous job called upon the average blue jeans is  a spin on the dance floor.  As denim has morphed from staple into a style statement, the prices have climbed to jaw-dropping proportions and they show no sign of stopping.

Birthday of "Blue Jeans"

In 1873, Levi Strauss & Company began using the pocket stitch design.  Levi Strauss and a Reno Nevada based Latvian tailor by the name of Jacob Davis co-patented the process of putting rivets in pants for strength.   On May 20, 1873 they received U.S.  Patent No. 149.1.  This date is now considered the official birthday of "blue jeans".

Levi's

Levi jeans - even the buttons that are used on these jeans are made with strong metal materials that are manufactured by Levi's.

Each pair of jeans is also designed with comfortable roomy pockets. These include the famous pocket watch that has adorned Levi's jeans since they were first produced.

A great part of these jeans is that they can be found in a wide variety of different forms. There are different types of jeans for men and women with different leg fits. The company makes skinny, straight, boot cut and relaxed types of jeans.
