The story of jeans started almost two hundred years ago. People in Genoa, Italy made pants. The cloth made in Genoa was called “jeanos”. The pants were called “jeans” . In 1850, a salesman in California began selling pants made of canvas. His name was Levis Strauss. Because they were so strong, “Levis’pants” became popular with gold miners, farmers and cowboys. Six years later, Levis began making his pants with blue cotton cloth called denim. Soon after, factory workers in the United States and Europe began wearing jeans.
