Let's talk about jeans.Jeans are pants, or trousers, made from denim.Mainly designed for work, they became popular among teenagers starting in the 1950s. Historic brands include Levi’s and Wrangler.Jeans are now a very popular form of casual dress around the world, and have been so for decades.They come in many styles and colors; however, “blue jeans” are particularly identified with American culture, especially the American Old West.The American population spent more than $14 billion on jeans in 2004.Trousers made from corduroy or canvas are sometimes incorrectly called jeans.However, traditionally the word “jeans” referred to trousers made exclusively out of denim.The word “jeans” comes from the French phrase bleu de Genes, literally the blue of Genoa.Jeans fabric, or denim, originated independently iu two places: the French town of Nimes, to which “denim” owes its name;and in India, where trousers made of denim material were worn by the sailors of Dhunga, which came to be known as dungarees.
我们来聊一聊牛仔裤。牛仔裤是用牛仔布做的裤子。它们主要是为上班族而设计的， 从20世纪50年代起开始深受青少年的喜爱。老牌子包括利瓦伊和牧 马人等。从几十年前开始到现在，牛仔裤一直是世界上非常流行的休闲装款式。它们有多种款式和颜色,其中“蓝色牛仔裤”被认为是最具美国特色（特别是美国老西部)。2004年,美国人在牛仔裤上的花费 舰了 140fc美元。用灯芯绒或帆布做的裤子有时被误认为是牛仔裤。然而，传统 上“牛仔裤”专指用牛仔布做的裤子。“牛仔裤”一词源自法语短语bleu de Gbes,字面上的意思是 热那亚蓝色。牛仔布起源于两个不同的地方:一是法国城镇Nimes， “denim”一词里包含了它的名字,二是印度,在那里Dhunga的水手 穿牛仔布做的裤子，那种裤子后来被称为粗棉布工装裤。
