Wrangler Jeans For Men Definition
Source(Google.com.pk)The story of jeans begins in the city of Genoa, in Italy, famous for its cotton corduroy, called either jean or jeane; the jeans fabric from Genoa (at that time) was in fact very similar to corduroy. During the Republic of Genoa, the jeans were exported by sailors of Genoa throughout Europe. In the French city of Nimes, weavers tried to reproduce the fabric exactly, but without success. However, with experimentation, and through trial and error, they developed another twill fabric that became known as denim, literally "de Nimes". Only at the end of the eighteenth century did jeans arrive in the United States.
Riveted jeans
Durable twill-woven fabric with coloured (usually
blue) warp (lengthwise) and white filling (crosswise) threads, also sometimes
woven in coloured stripes. The name originated in the French serge de Nîmes. Denim is usually all-cotten
though it is sometimes made of a cotton-synthetic mixture. Decades of use in
the clothing industry, especially in the manufacture of overalls and trousers
worn for heavy labour, have demonstrated denim's durability, a quality that,
along with its comfort, made denim jeans extremely popular for leisure wear in
the late 20th century.

denims, (used with a pl. v.) clothes of denim. Dry or raw denim,
as opposed to washed denim, is a denim fabric that is not washed after being
dyed during its production. Over time, denim will generally fade, which is
often considered desirable. During the process of wear, it is typical to see
fading on areas that generally receive the most stress, which includes the
upper thighs workers the ankles (stacks) and behind the knees honey comes
After being crafted into an article of clothing, most denim is washed to
make it softer and to reduce or eliminate shrinkage which could cause an item
to not fit after the owner washes it. In addition to being washed, non-dry
denim is sometimes artificially "distressed" to produce a worn look.Much of the appeal of factory distressed denim is that it looks similar to dry denim that has, with time, faded. With dry denim, however, such fading is affected by the body of the person who wears the jeans and the activities of his/her daily life. This creates what many enthusiasts feel to be a more natural, unique look than distressed denim.
Shuttle looms weave a narrower 30
inch fabric, which is on average half the width of the more modern shuttleless
sulzer looms (invented in 1927 by the
Sulzer brothers) and thus a longer piece of fabric is required to make a pair
of jeans (approximately 3 yards). To maximize yield, jean where traditionally
made with a straight outseam that utalised the full width of the fabric
including this edge. This became not only desirable but since the production of
wider width denim, a mark of premium quality as when worn with a turn up the
two selvages where visable rather than a unatractive overlocked edge.
Dying
Originally Indigo was produced using
dye from plan indegofera tinctoria but
most denim today is dyed with synthetic. indigo In both cases the yarn will
undergo a repetitive sequence of dipping and oxidization, the more dipps, the
stronger the indigo shade.
Rope dye is considered the best yarn dying method as it eliminated shading
across the fabric width, thou the alternative slasher process is cheaper as
only one beaming process is needed (in rope dying, beaing is done twice). Fades
caused by prolonged periods of wear, without washing, have become the main
allure for raw denim. The fading patterns are a way of personalizing the
garment for each customer. These fades are categorized by certain namesWhiskers
– Faded streaks that surround the crotch area of the denim. Combs – Also known,
as “honey combs” are the streaks of faded lines that are found behind the knee.
Stacks – Produced by having the inseam of the denim hemmed a few inches longer
than actual leg length. The extra fabric stacks on top of the shoe causing a
fade to form around the ankle to calf area of the denim. Train Tracks – appears
on the outseams of the denim. This fade showcases the selvedge by forming two
sets of fades that resemble train tracks. Originally Indigo was produced using dye from
plant tinctoria but most denim today is dyed with synthetic. In both cases the

A young man named Levi Strauss immigrated in 1851 from Germany to New York to be with his older brother, who ran a dry goods store. In 1853 he moved to San Francisco to establish his own dry goods business.
In 1872, Jacob Davis, a tailor who frequently purchased bolts of cloth from the Levi Strauss & Co. wholesale house, wrote to Strauss asking to partner with him to patent and sell clothing reinforced with rivets.[1] Davis' idea was to use copper rivets to reinforce the points of stress, such as on the pocket corners and at the bottom of the button fly. After Strauss accepted Davis's offer, the two men received U.S. Patent 139,121, for an "Improvement in Fastening Pocket-Openings," on May 20, 1873.[2]
An oft-told "attractive myth" is that Strauss initially sold brown canvas pants to miners, eventually dyed them blue, turned to using denim, and after Davis wrote to him, Strauss added rivets to his blue jeans. However, this story is false and probably due to the discovery of jeans made of brown cotton duck (a type of bottomweight fabric), which was one of the early materials used by Davis and Strauss after 1873.[1] Finding denim a more suitable material for work-pants, they began using it to manufacture their riveted pants. The denim used was produced by an American textile manufacturer (popular legend states the denim was obtained from Nimes, France).[1]
