DO DENIM The denim jacket has a long and rich history. Since its conception in the early twentieth century, it has outfitted the US military through two world wars and dressed countless famous faces, from James Dean and Marilyn Monroe to Elvis Presley. It became the jacket of choice for rebel teens in the ‘50s, for drop-out hippies in the ‘60s and was ripped at the seams by punks in the ‘70s. The story of this infamous jacket began with the creation of denim in Nimes in France, but fast forward to 1850 and Californian Gold Rush - and a man named Levi Strauss began importing the denim fabric from France to create his famous sturdy, solid trousers, which later became known as jeans.
