The fabric for blue jeans dates back to Columbus. His crew wore a denim fabric. The jean style we know today began in the gold fields of CA. A man by the name of Levi Strauss was an Eastern tailor when he went to seek his fortune in the CA gold rush. Because he was working in dirt and water the seams of his pants kept tearing and falling apart. To prevent this he added brads at the seams of his pants and the other miners saw them. They wanted the same thing, so instead of finding gold he found gold in repairing pants for miners in 1848. This eventually turned in the Levi jeans we buy today.
