Levi Strauss a young immigrant from Germany, arrived in San Francisco in 1850 . California was in the middle of the Gold Rush, thousands of men were coming to California to dig for gold and Levi Strauss came to sell canvas to these gold miners. Canvas is a heavy fabric. So Levi Strauss thought the miners could use the canvas for tents.
One day Strauss heard a miner complain that he couldn´t find clothes strong enough for the work he was doing Strauss got an idea he quickly took some of his canvas and made it into pants these pants were what the miners needed. In one day Strauss sold all the pants he had made.
Strauss wanted to improve his pants he wanted to make them even better. He bought a fabric that was softer than canvas but just as strong. This fabric came from Nimes, a city in France, and was called serge de Nimes. The miners liked this fabric they called it "denim" (from de Nimes) and bought even more pants from Strauss.
However, denim had no color because of this the denim pants did not look very interesting and they got dirty easily. To solve these problems Strauss made the denim blue.

Levi Strauss, một người nhập cư trẻ tuổi từ Đức, đến San Francisco vào năm 1850. California đang ở giữa cơn sốt vàng, hàng ngàn người đàn ông đến California để đào vàng và Levi Strauss đến bán vải bạt cho những người khai thác vàng này. Canvas là một loại vải nặng. Vì vậy, Levi Strauss nghĩ rằng những người thợ mỏ có thể sử dụng vải bạt để làm lều.
Một ngày nọ, Strauss nghe một người thợ mỏ phàn nàn rằng anh ta không thể tìm thấy quần áo đủ chắc chắn cho công việc đang làm. Trong một ngày, Strauss đã bán tất cả những chiếc quần anh đã làm.
Strauss muốn cải thiện chiếc quần của mình, anh ấy muốn làm cho chúng tốt hơn nữa. Anh ta mua một loại vải mềm hơn vải canvas nhưng cũng chắc chắn. Loại vải này đến từ Nimes, một thành phố ở Pháp, và được gọi là serge de Nimes. Những người thợ mỏ thích loại vải này, họ gọi nó là "denim" (từ de Nimes) và thậm chí còn mua nhiều quần hơn từ Strauss.
Tuy nhiên, denim không có màu sắc vì điều này, quần denim trông không được thú vị cho lắm và chúng dễ bị bẩn. Để giải quyết những vấn đề này, Strauss đã làm cho vải denim có màu xanh lam.
Strauss tiếp tục cải tiến quần jean của mình. Ngày nay, công ty mà ông thành lập đã được biết đến trên toàn thế giới và quần jean được coi là không chỉ thiết thực mà còn rất thời trang.
