Blue jeans have developed from the rugged pants gold miners wore into the denim designer suits of today.It's hard to believe that pants created to be functional, rugged, and resistant to tearing with riveted pockets would be a high fashion item today.Levi Strauss added rivets to his line of jeans when miners complained that their pockets kept ripping.
