Levi Strauss came from a small town in the south of Germany. When he was a young man, he fell in love with the mayor's daughter, but the mayor and Levi's parents did not allow them to marry.
Levi's parents had moved to New York, where his brothers were tailors, and they taught him to sew. In 1850, Levi moved from New York to San Francisco, where he was sewing for men. The weather was bad, with rivers overflowing and strong winds blowing because they had sent him away to live. They were taking some sailcloth from meeting some people digging for gold in the streams and raining. The men were cold, wearing thin trousers.
Suddenly, Levi had an idea. He was using the sailcloth, which he had transported, to make trousers for the men. He was sewing on metal studs to make them stronger.
The men loved the trousers, but they didn't like the yellow-grey color. So, Levi opened a tailor's shop in San Francisco, importing a special thick blue material from Nimes in France. That's how jeans became blue.
