Levi's Blue Jeans
Levi Strauss was born inGermany in the mid 1800's andimmigrated
to the United States as ayoung man. He lived in New York
City and learned the dry-goodsbusiness for several years. In
1853he took his knowledge and hisdreams to San
Francisco(California., USA.) His dream tosucceed came true over the
next 20years as he became a verysuccessful businessman.
Many of Levi Strauss'customers were cowboys and
miners. They needed clothing thatwas strong and durable.
Straussfound a special fabric from Francethat was comfortable and
lasted along time. It was called "serge deNimes," which was later
shortenedto the word denim.
Another man named JacobDavis bought large amounts of thedenim
fabric from Levi Strauss. Hewas a tailor who made pants
forhard-working men. One of hiscustomers was continually tearingthe
pockets off his pants. So JacobDavis decided to put rivets
oncertain parts of the pants to makethem stronger. The customer
lovedthe new pants so much that he toldall his friends, and soon
Jacob Daviswas busy making lots of pants with
rivets.
Jacob Davis soon realized thatusing rivets was a great
business
idea, and he didn't want anybody tosteal that idea. He decided
that hewould need to get a patent. Butbeing a poor tailor, he
didn't haveenough money to pay for thepatent. After thinking it
over, hewent to the businessman Levi
Strauss and told him his idea. Hesaid, "If you agree to pay for
thepatent, we will share the profits fromthe riveted pants." Levi
Strauss didagree, and the new riveted pantbusiness was called Levi
Straussand Company. Today Levi's jeansare more popular than ever,
andLevi's name continues to live on.
