The Reason of Small Pocket in Jeans

have it ever crossed your mind that jeans always has small pocket on the right side? This little pocket seems has no function other than just a patch to add the accentuation style of the wearer, or perhaps typical jeans. However, from the cute pocket there is an actually readable history of pants made popular by Levi Strauss in 1880, eight years after the jeans into the United States (U.S.) in 1872.

As a kind of textile, jeans first made in Genoa, Italy in 1560's. Fabric pants used by the navy. The French call these pants as "bleu de Genes", which means the blue of Genoa. Although textiles were first produced and used in Europe, but as fashion, jeans popularized in the U.S. by Levi Strauss, a young man in their twenties who complain luck to San Francisco as a clothing merchant. At that time, the U.S. was hit by gold fever.

However, up in California all goods sold, except a tent made of canvas. This cuts the canvas and made into some pants that are sold on the gold miners. And it turns out the workers like it because Strauss-made pants are durable and not easily torn. Felt had a chance, Strauss perfected "findings" by ordering material from Genoa called "Genes", which by Strauss changed to "Blue Jeans".

This is where the miners added artificial pants like Strauss and "named" pants as formal pants miners. The gold miners pants Strauss calls the "those pants of Levi` s "or" The Levi Pants ". The name is a trademark first started the world's first jeans.

Strauss keen business sense makes a successful entrepreneur Jakob Davis invited to work together, and in 1880 the partnership spawned the first jeans factory. And their first product design was "Levi` s 501 ".

Product design first is devoted to the gold miners. These pants have 5 pockets, 2 rear and 2 in front, and 1 small pocket inside the right front pocket. Because it is for the miners, this pocket-style is certainly not for fun. But cute pocket is designed to store the gold grains are small. Although now the jeans are manufactured in a variety of brands and not just for the miners, but cute pockets remain. Certainly not function as a place to store the gold grains.
