So, Levi Strauss took his canvas to a local tailor and had several pairs of pants made- They werea great success. Miners used to put gold ore into their pockets, so Levi decided to reinforce each pocket with cooper rivets.After the Civil War, when Levi Strauss sent his trousers from the gold mines of California to the cowboys in Texas, he became rich and famous.During the Second World War Levi's jeans were mostly worn by people employed in defence work. But it was the nextgeneration, the Fifties teenagers, that turned jeans into fashionable wear To them, jeans were sexy, dangerous and worn by romantic cowboys and rebellious Hollywood heroes like Marion Brando, James Dean and Elvis Presley,And so, what began life last century as workwear for miners has become the fashion phenomenon of the 20thcentury.Denim is nowadays the uniform of the masses, and it is regularly used by the young as afreedom flag against conventions.I – True or False?1 – When Levi Strauss arrived in California he tried to sell canvas for jeans. _______ 2 – In S.
