    Jeans are a type of pants or trousers, typically
    made from denim or dungaree cloth. Often the
    term "jeans" refers to a particular style of
    trousers, called "blue jeans", which were invented
    by Jacob W. Davis in partnership with Levi
    Strauss & Co. in 1871 [1] and patented by Jacob
    W. Davis and Levi Strauss on May 20, 1873.
    Prior to the Levi Strauss patented trousers, the
    term "blue jeans" had been long in use for
    various garments (including trousers, overalls,
    and coats), constructed from blue-colored
    denim. [2] "Jean" also references a (historic) type
    of sturdy cloth commonly made with a cotton
    warp and wool weft (also known as "Virginia
    cloth"). Jean cloth can be entirely cotton as well,
    similar to denim. Originally designed for
    cowboys and miners , modern jeans became
    popular in the 1950s among teenagers,
    especially members of the greaser subculture.
    Jeans were a common fashion item in the
    1960s hippie subculture and they continued to
    be popular in the 1970s and 1980s youth
    subcultures of punk rock and heavy metal.
    Nowadays, they are one of the most popular
    types of trousers, especially in Western culture.
    Historic brands include Levi's , Lee, and
    Wrangler.
    History
    Origin of jean fabric
    A traditional women's Genoese
    dress in "blue jeans" (1890s)
    Research on the trade of jean fabric shows that it
    emerged in the cities of Genoa, Italy, and Nîmes,
    France. Gênes, the French word for Genoa, may
    be the origin of the word " jeans ". In Nîmes,
    weavers tried to reproduce jean fabric but
    instead developed a similar twill fabric that
    became known as denim, from de Nîmes ,
    meaning "from Nîmes". Genoa's jean fabric was
    a fustian textile of "medium quality and of
    reasonable cost", very similar to cotton corduroy
    for which Genoa was famous, and was "used for
    work clothes in general". The Genoese navy
    equipped its sailors with jeans, as they needed a
    fabric which could be worn wet or dry. [3][4]
    Nîmes's "denim" was coarser, considered higher
    quality, and was used "for over garments such as
    smocks or overalls". [5] Nearly all indigo , needed
    for dyeing, came from indigo bush plantations in
    India until the late 19th century. It was replaced
    by indigo synthesis methods developed in
    Germany. [6]
    Copper rivets for reinforcing pockets are
    a characteristic feature of blue jeans.
    By the 17th century, jean was a crucial textile for
    working-class people in Northern Italy. This is
    seen in a series of genre paintings from around
    the 17th century attributed to an artist now
    nicknamed The Master of the Blue Jeans. [7] The
    ten paintings depict impoverished scenes with
    lower-class figures wearing a fabric that looks
    like denim. The fabric would have been Genoese
    jean, which was cheaper. Genre painting came to
    prominence in late 16th century, and the non-
    nobility subject matter in all ten paintings places
    them among others that portray similar
    scenes. [8]
    Dungaree was mentioned for the first time in the
    17th century, when it was referred to as cheap,
    coarse thick cotton cloth, often colored blue but
    sometimes white, worn by impoverished people
    in what was then a region of Bombay , India a
    dockside village called Dongri. This cloth was
    "dungri" in Hindi . Dungri was exported to
    England and used for manufacturing of cheap,
    robust working clothes. In English, the word
    "dungri" became pronounced as "dungaree". [9]
    Origin of riveted jeans
    Jacob Davis
    Levi Strauss
    The term jeans appears first in 1795, when a
    Swiss banker by the name Jean-Gabriel Eynard
    and his brother Jacques went to Genoa and both
    were soon heading a flourishing commercial
    concern. In 1800 Massena 's troops entered the
    town and Jean-Gabriel was entrusted with their
    supply. In particular he furnished them with
    uniforms cut from blue cloth called "bleu de
    Genes" whence later derives the famous garment
    known worldwide as "blue jeans". [10]
    Levi Strauss , as a young man in 1851, went from
    Germany to New York to join his older brothers
    who ran a goods store. In 1853, he moved to
    San Francisco to open his own dry goods
    business. Jacob Davis was a tailor who often
    bought bolts of cloth from the Levi Strauss &
    Co . wholesale house. In 1872, Davis wrote to
    Strauss asking to partner with him to patent and
    sell clothing reinforced with rivets. [11] The
    copper rivets were to reinforce the points of
    stress, such as pocket corners and at the
    bottom of the button fly. Levi accepted Davis's
    offer, [12] and the two men received US patent
    No. 139,121 for an "Improvement in Fastening
    Pocket-Openings" on May 20, 1873. [13]
    The classic label for Levi 501 jeans.
    Davis and Strauss experimented with different
    fabrics. An early attempt was brown cotton duck,
    a bottom-weight fabric. [a] Finding denim a more
    suitable material for work-pants, they began
    using it to manufacture their riveted pants. The
    denim used was produced by an American
    manufacturer. Popular legend incorrectly states
    that it was imported from Nimes, France . A
    popular myth is that Strauss initially sold brown
    canvas pants to miners, later dyed them blue,
    turned to using denim, and only after Davis wrote
    to him, added rivets. [11]
    Initially, Strauss' jeans were simply sturdy
    trousers worn by factory workers, miners,
    farmers, and cattlemen throughout the North
    American West. [14][15] During this period,
    men's jeans had the fly down the front, whereas
    women's jeans had the fly down the left
    side. [16] When Levi Strauss & Co. patented the
    modern, mass-produced prototype in the year
    1873, there were two pockets in the front and
    one on the back with copper rivets. Later, the
    jeans were redesigned to today's industry
    standard of five pockets including a little watch
    pocket and copper rivets. [10]
    Recent evolution
    Fewer jeans were made during World War II , but
    'waist overalls' were introduced to the world by
    US soldiers, who sometimes wore them off
    duty. [17] [18] By the 1960s, both men's and
    women's jeans had the zipper down the front.
    Historic photographs indicate that in the decades
    before they became a staple of fashion, jeans
    generally fit quite loosely, much like a pair of bib
    overalls without the bib. Indeed, until 1960, Levi
    Strauss called its flagship product "waist
    overalls" rather than "jeans".
    After James Dean popularized them in the movie
    Rebel Without a Cause , wearing jeans became a
    symbol of youth rebellion during the 1950s. [19]
    During the 1960s the wearing of jeans became
    more acceptable, and by the 1970s it had
    become general fashion in the United States for
    casual wear. [20] However, the acceptance of
    jean to becoming casual wear is still relatively
    low in Japan. [21]
    Leigh Jones, a recording artist
    wearing ripped jeans, 2009
    Examples of intentional denim distressing strictly
    to make them more fashionable can be seen as
    early as 1935 in Vogue's June issue. [22]
    Michael Belluomo, editor of Sportswear
    International Magazine, Oct/Nov 1987, P. 45,
    wrote that in 1965, Limbo, a boutique in the
    New York East Village, was "the first retailer to
    wash a new pair of jeans to get a used, worn
    effect, and the idea became a hit." He continued,
    "[Limbo] hired East Village artists to embellish
    the jeans with patches, decals, and other
    touches, and sold them for $200." In the early
    1980s the denim industry introduced the stone-
    washing technique developed by GWG also
    known as "Great Western Garment Co." Donald
    Freeland of Edmonton, Alberta pioneered the
    method, [23] which helped to bring denim to a
    larger and more versatile market. Acceptance of
    jeans continued through the 1980s and 1990s.
    Originally an esoteric fashion choice, in the
    2010s jeans may be seen being worn by men
    and women of all ages. [24]
    Manufacturing processes
    Dyeing
    See also: Azo dye
    Chemical structure of indigo dye, the
    blue of blue jeans.
    Traditionally, jeans were dyed to a blue color
    using natural indigo dye. Most denim is now
    dyed using synthetic indigo. Approximately
    20 thousand tons of indigo are produced
    annually for this purpose, though only a few
    grams of the dye are required for each pair. [25]
    For other colors of denim other dyes must be
    used. Currently, jeans are produced in any color
    that can be achieved with cotton.
    For more information on dyeing, refer to denim
    and the discussion there of using pigment dyes.
    Pre-shrinking
    Young people wearing a variety of jean
    styles, including carpenter jeans ,
    bootcut jeans , drainpipe jeans and
    lowrise jeans . (Rome, 2008)
    In 1962 Levi Strauss introduced pre-shrunk
    jeans, which did not shrink further after purchase,
    allowing the consumer to purchase a correctly
    fitting size. [26] These jeans were known as the
    505 regular fit jeans. The 505 are almost
    identical to the 501s with the exception of the
    button-fly. The Levi's Corporation also introduced
    a slim boot-cut fit known as 517 and 527. The
    difference between the two is the 517s sit at the
    waist line and the 527s sit below the waist line.
    Later, Levi's would develop other styles and fits
    such as the loose, slim, comfort, relaxed, skinny,
    and a regular fit with a tapered leg.
    Used and distressed looks
    Ronald Reagan wearing stonewash
    denim associated with Western
    clothing , 1970s
    The used or "acid wash " look is created by
    means of abrading the jeans and/or treating
    them with chemicals, such as acryl resin, phenol,
    a hypochlorite, potassium permanganate, caustic
    soda, acids etc. [27]
    Ripping or distressing of jeans, though also
    arising naturally as a result of wear and tear, is
    sometimes deliberately performed by suppliers -
    with distressed clothing sometimes selling for
    more than a nondistressed pair. For example,
    Pucci sold "embellished mid-rise boyfriend
    jeans" for £600 (US$860). [28]
    Sandblasting or abrading with
    sandpaper
    Consumers wanting jeans that appear worn can
    buy jeans that have been specially treated. To
    give the fabrics the worn look, sandblasting
    done with chemicals or by adding pumice stone
    to the washing process or abrading with
    sandpaper is often done.
    Environmental and humanitarian
    impact
    A typical pair of blue jeans uses 919 gallons
    (3479 liters) of water during its life cycle. This
    includes the water to irrigate the cotton crop,
    manufacture the jeans, and the numerous
    washes by the consumer. [29]
    The production of jeans with a "used look" can
    be more environmentally damaging than regular
    jeans [30] [ citation needed] , depending on how
    the waste compounds are processed.
    Sandblasting and treating with sandpaper has the
    risk of causing silicosis to the workers, and in
    Turkey, more than 5,000 textile workers have
    been stricken with this disease, and 46 people
    are known to have died. Some companies have
    announced they are banning the use of
    sandblasting. [31]
    Care and wear
    Despite most jeans being "pre-shrunk", they are
    still sensitive to slight further shrinkage and loss
    of color from being washed. The Levi Strauss
    company recommends avoiding washing jeans
    as much as possible. Carl Chiara, Levi Strauss
    director of brand and special projects, has a
    credo: The less you wash your jeans, the better
    your jeans become. [32] These and other
    suggestions to avoid washing jeans where
    possible have encountered criticism. Cory
    Warren, editor of LS&Co. Unzipped, clarifies in a
    response to such a criticism:
    For those who prefer to refrain from washing
    their jeans there have been suggestions to freeze
    them in order to kill the germs that cause odor.
    However, this advice has been disputed as
    ineffective and replaced with the suggestion of
    baking them for ten minutes at 250 degrees
    Fahrenheit. [33] (120 °C).
    Jeans in the law
    Jeans are covered under laws regarding trousers .
    As well, there have been some notable legal
    cases involving jeans specifically:
    In Rome , Italy, in 1992, a 45-year-old driving
    instructor was accused of rape. When he picked
    up an 18-year-old girl for her first driving lesson,
    he allegedly raped her for an hour, then told her
    that if she was to tell anyone he would kill her.
    Later that night she told her parents and her
    parents agreed to help her press charges. While
    the alleged rapist was convicted and sentenced,
    the Italian Supreme Court overturned the
    conviction in 1998 because the victim wore tight
    jeans. It was argued that she must have
    necessarily had to help her attacker remove her
    jeans, thus making the act consensual ("because
    the victim wore very, very tight jeans, she had to
    help him remove them ... and by removing the
    jeans ... it was no longer rape but consensual
    sex"). The Italian Supreme Court stated in its
    decision "it is a fact of common experience that
    it is nearly impossible to slip off tight jeans
    even partly without the active collaboration of
    the person who is wearing them." [34] This ruling
    sparked widespread feminist protest. The day
    after the decision, women in the Italian
    Parliament protested by wearing jeans and
    holding placards that read "Jeans: An Alibi for
    Rape". As a sign of support, the California
    Senate and Assembly followed suit. Soon
    Patricia Giggans, Executive Director of the Los
    Angeles Commission on Assaults Against
    Women, (now Peace Over Violence) made Denim
    Day an annual event. As of 2011 at least 20 U.S.
    states officially recognize Denim Day in April.
    Wearing jeans on this day has become an
    international symbol of protest against erroneous
    and destructive attitudes about sexual assault.
    As of 2008 the Italian Supreme Court has
    overturned their findings, and there is no longer
    a "denim" defense to the charge of rape.
    In 2014, an Indian family court in Mumbai ruled
    that a husband objecting to his wife wearing a
    kurta and jeans and forcing her to wear a sari
    amounts to cruelty inflicted by the husband and
    can be a ground to seek divorce. [35] The wife
    was thus granted a divorce on the ground of
    cruelty as defined under section 27(1)(d) of
    Special Marriage Act, 1954. [35]
    Trends
    Worldwide market for jeans
    North America accounts for 39% of global
    purchases for jeans, followed by Western Europe
    at 20%, Japan and Korea at 10% and the rest of
    the world at 31%. [36]
    United States consumers spent more than US$14
    billion on jeans in 2004 and US$15 billion in
    2005. [37] US consumers bought US$13.8 billion
    of men's and women's jeans in the year that
    ended 30 April 2011, according to market-
    research firm NPD Group. [38]
    Jeans in the USSR
    This section needs expansion . You can help by
    adding to it . (July 2015)
    In the Soviet Union, jeans were the symbol of the
    Western way of life. The "jeans fever" in the
    USSR started in 1957 during the World Festival
    of Youth and Students . [39] According to a 1961
    Russian textile dictionary, jeans were initially
    referred to as a "worker's uniform" (рабочий
    костюм, rabochii kostyum ). [40]
    The jeans brand Rokotov and Fainberg is named
    after the defendants in the Rokotov–Faibishenko
    case, who were executed for, among other
    things, trafficking in jeans. [39]
    Although not outright banned, jeans were hard to
    come by in USSR. It was seen as a symbol of
    rebellion by the Soviet youth who wanted to
    emulate the style of film and rock stars of the
    West. The Soviet government resisted supplying
    the market with jeans as that would mean
    responding to the market, a capitalist
    principle. [41] People went to great lengths,
    sometimes resorting to violence and other illegal
    activities to obtain real Western made jeans.
    This led to the creation of black markets and
    bootlegging of jeans, which since has become
    an important cultural element in the history of
    the Soviet Union. [42]
    Market-share shift to activewear
    In 2014, teens were buying more fashion and
    athleisure clothing from brands such as Nike and
    Lululemon over denim classics from brands like
    Abercrombie & Fitch . [43] Activewear in 2014
    comprised 28% of teens' apparel purchases, up
    from 6% in 2008. In 2014, Nike, Lululemon,
    Under Armour , and Adidas were the most popular
    brands for athletic apparel among teen
    consumers. Fashion retailers have begun to
    adjust their offerings accordingly. Bloomberg
    reports that Levi's, which is the world's most
    iconic denim company, stuck to its core product
    (denim) instead of adapting to consumer trends.
    As a result, Levi's sales decreased from over
    USD 7 billion to USD 4.8 billion in 2015. [44]
    Distressed jeans
    Distressed denim emerged from the cultural
    punk movement in the 1970s. Early punks tore
    apart consumer goods as an expression of their
    anger towards society. [45] Johnny Rotten of the
    Sex Pistols manifested the British punk ideology,
    which was fighting against the status quo. Denim
    became a key target of this politically fueled
    deconstruction, with both men and women
    donning torn pants and jackets, accessorized
    with safety pins and slogans. The trend became
    popular again in the 1990s with the emergence
    of grunge fashion. If punk was "anti-fashion",
    grunge was "non-fashion". The grunge youth
    wore loose-fitting ripped jeans, flannel shirts or
    woolen Pendletons layered over T-shirts. Their
    anti-conformist approach to fashion led to the
    popularization of the casual chic look, a trend
    which continued into the 2000s.
    Low-rise jeans
    Media reported in 2017 that the trend of low-rise
    jeans , famous in 1990s and 2000s as sagging ,
    was coming back in fashion due to celebrities
    like Justin Bieber endorsing it. [46] Low-rise
    jeans are usually worn 2-3 inches or more below
    the navel. [47]

    Notes
    1. ^ Bottom weight fabric is a heavier fabric
    suitable for pants or skirts (a.k.a. bottoms). Not
    necessarily a thick or heavy fabric but heavier
    than something that would be used to make a
    blouse or shirt.
