The Triumph of the Blue Jeans
It all started with the practical Levi Strauss & Co waist overall. These durable trousers were designed by Levi Strauss and tailor Jacob W. Davis for the San Francisco workers. The special feature: Main pressure points were reinforced with copper rivets. Fortunately the two entrepreneurs have patented this innovative idea. A few years later many hardworking workmen in blue trousers with copper details were seen in the far West of North America. Due to the great fit and good quality, the workmen also wore them in their free time. They really lived in their jeans.
The Uniform of Freedom
Already after a short time, the long-lasting work clothes were worn by everyone on their quest for freedom. Not only mine workers and cowboys, but also rebels and rock stars dressed in the popular blue jeans. Even presidents were seen in these "working pants. " What a triumph for dungarees. Nowadays, the brand is best known for its crisply fitting jeans.
