What does the 'redundant' button on jeans have?

Do you realize that every pair of jeans has some strange buttons? What is their purpose?

Perhaps it is not wrong to say this world is being dominated by cowboy jeans. We see clothes with jeans at anytime, anywhere. In fashion stores, there is always at least one corner for jeans, hundreds of shops as one.

But ignore this. Now take a look at your jeans and answer the following question: What is this button for? Dare to fish, you don't know.

What are these buttons used for?

It is not uncommon, because many people are like you, which is unaware of the purpose of the buttons that seem somewhat redundant.

But everything has its cause. And the accumulation of these buttons dates back to the 1870s, when jeans were also workwear products for workers.

A Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis realized he was fixing a lot of workers' jeans, all of which shared the same symptom: torn from the pocket . Too tired, Davis devised a method to solve this problem completely: reinforcing his pants with studs.

Now you understand?Existing buttons aim to make your jeans more solid. And Jacob Davis is also seen as the creator of the current jeans we are using.

There is an interesting detail that at the time of the idea, Davis soon knew it was a breakthrough invention, but could not afford to make it a reality.

In the end, Davis relied on Levi Strauss, who gave birth to the legendary jeans company Levi's - a one-handed hand, producing jeans that were reinforced with rivets.

These are also pants that help Levi's dominate the city of San Francisco and the American Wild West provinces of this period.
