JEANS

...140 YEARS OLD AND STILL SO COOL!

Every day, you get up in the morning and put on your jeans. On 20 May, it's the official birthday of the world's favourite trousers. But how much do you know about them?

Mini pocket

This used to be called a "watch pocket" - people put their watches here to keep therm safe. It has got smaller with time, and is now called the "coin" pocket.

Zip or buttons

The first pair of jeans had a button-fly. In 1954, Levi's made its first pair of jeans with a zip.
