Jeans

Jeans are usually made of denim. It is a strong, usually blue, cotton cloth. The history of jeans is rather curious.

It was in the 1850s in the USA. Mr Levi Strauss was one of those who sold cloth for gold-miners' wear. The miners had to change it often.

Once he bought strong cotton clothes and sew working trousers of it. They were much stronger and gold-miners liked new trousers, called jeans, very much.
