The jeans were invented in the 1800s by Levi Strauss, a Bavarian immigrant, who opened a shop in California, who sold uniforms for workers working in the region. A businessman and tailor of the city of Reno, Nevada, Jacob Davis, bought a large fabric (denim) of Levi, with the aim of making more pants for his workers, for those who used to wear were worn very easily. To prevent the seams from opening, Davis decided to put metal rivets in the denim pants. He sent two riveted pants to Levi and together patented innovation. Davis then joined Levi in San Francisco with the aim of overseeing the production of the new plant. In 1890, Levi attributed the 501 identification number to his pants with copper rivets. The rivets in the pants pockets are used until today, even if the original idea was to prevent the seams from opening day to day during the heavy labors of the workers. Nowadays, it is seen as a way to maintain the tradition of the history of jeans. Today Jeans is considered one of the most versatile materials when talking about making clothes and accessories.
