This weave produces the familiar diagonal ribbing that distinguishes it from linen canvas.&nbsp;The indigo dyeing process, in which the core of the warp threads remains white, creates denim fading characteristics, which are unique compared to any other tissue.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/image-asset-16.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/> <\/p>\n<p>Named after the French city of N\u00eemes,&nbsp;denim has been traditionally colored blue with indigo dye to make blue jeans, although the word &#8220;Jean&#8221; previously indicated a different fabric.&nbsp;The definition blue jeans, however, derives from the French word for Genoa, Italy, where the first denim trousers were made.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/image-asset-17.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/> <\/p>\n<p>Denim was used in the United States since the mid-19th century.&nbsp;Denim became popular in 1873, when Jacob Davis, a tailor from Nevada, made the first pair of denim pants &#8220;reinforced rivets&#8221;.&nbsp;His idea of making reinforced jeans was inspired by a lady customer who requested strong and durable pants for her husband to chop woods.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/image-asset-18.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/> <\/p>\n<p>Soon, the popularity of jeans began to spread, and Davis has sold 200 pairs for workers who need resistant clothing. So,&nbsp;he wrote a proposal to the dry goods wholesale Levi Strauss &amp; Co. to provide with denim fabric pieces.&nbsp;Davis asked &#8220;to patent the design of reinforced rivet jeans pants, with Davis listed as inventor, in exchange for certain manufacturing rights.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/image-asset-19.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/> <\/p>\n<p>Levi Strauss &amp; Co. was so impressed by the possibilities for profit in the manufacture of the garment that they then hired Davis to be in charge of the mass-production in San Francisco.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/image-asset-20.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The &nbsp;history of jeans for dummies<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1092,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","rank_math_focus_keyword":"","rank_math_title":"","rank_math_description":"","rank_math_additional_keywords":"","rank_math_canonical_url":"","rank_math_robots":["index"],"rank_math_breadcrumb_title":"","rank_math_facebook_title":"","rank_math_facebook_description":"","rank_math_facebook_image":"","rank_math_facebook_image_id":0,"rank_math_twitter_title":"","rank_math_twitter_description":"","rank_math_twitter_image":"","rank_math_twitter_image_id":0,"rank_math_twitter_card_type":""},"categories":[107],"tags":[156,157,109],"class_list":["post-1091","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-inspiration","tag-denim","tag-jeans","tag-street-style"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1091","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1091"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1091\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1092"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1091"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1091"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.liberty4fashion.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1091"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
