Grade Level 5. See following page for the passage.)What was Mr. Strauss’ objective for moving to San Francisco?What was a fundamental need of the miners?How did Mr. Strauss deviate from his first plan for making pants?Blue JeansLevi Strauss invented blue jeans over 100 years ago. In 1853, the California gold rush was in full swing. Everyday items were in short supply. Levi Strauss, a 24-year-old German immigrant, left New York with a small supply of dry goods so he could open a store when he arrived in San Francisco. Shortly after his arrival, a miner wanted to know what Mr. Strauss was selling. When Strauss told him he had rough canvas to use for tents and wagon covers, the miner said, "You should have brought pants!" saying he couldn’t find a pair of pants strong enough to last.He realized that people needed strong pants for this rough country. He had a large stock of canvas. He had a tailor make pants from the canvas. The miners liked the pants, but complained that they tended to be rough on their skin. Levi Strauss started making the pants denim. Some people started to call these pants “Levi’s.” Later they were called blue jeans. During the late 1860’s Jacob Davis, a tailor, wrote to Mr. Strauss. He suggested that copper rivets or bolts be put on the pants. They would help to prevent the pants from tearing. Soon the two men became partners.Until the 1930’s blue jeans were worn only in the West. Then rich easterners started to go west for ranch vacations. They liked to dress up like cowboys. When their vacations were over they took their new jeans back home with them.After World War II the blue jean industry grew even more. New fabrics and styles were developed. More companies started to make blue jeans. During the 1960’s jeans became very popular for young people. They are still popular today.Blue jeans have changed little since they were first invented. Blue jeans continue to be worn today. Their ruggedness and durability appeal to both the poor and rich alike. Today, jeans are worn all over the world. ................
