i think the California gold rush The California Gold Rush Is Correct. But to be more specific, the blue jeans were made by Levi Strauss is 1850, just for the gold miners who's pants seemed to keep falling apart because they were made out of cotton. But the jeans were made out of a much more durable cotton and were died blue. This saved the gold miners wives allot of thread. :)
Levi Strauss, the founder of the Levi's brand, weighed around 135 pounds (61 kg) in his prime. However, his weight may have fluctuated throughout his lifetime.
In his first year of business in 1850, Levi Strauss made approximately $1,000 in sales, which was a considerable sum at the time. He initially sold dry goods to miners during the California Gold Rush, eventually leading to the creation of his famous denim jeans. His innovative approach and understanding of the market laid the foundation for what would become a successful clothing empire.
