The Jeaning of America and the World This is the story of a sturdy American symbol which has now spread throughout most of the world. The symbol is not the dollar. It is not even Coca-Cola. It is a simple pair of pants called blue jeans, and what the pants symbolize is what Alexis de Tocqueville called “a manly and legitimate passion for equality…” Blue jeans are favored equally by bureaucrats and cowboys, bankers and deadbeats, fashion designers and beer drinkers. They draw no distinctions and recognize no classes; they are merely American. Yet they are sought after almost everywhere in the world. They have been around for a long time, and it seems likely that they will outlive even the necktie. This ubiquitous American symbol was the invention of a Bavarian-born Jew. His name was Levi Strauss. He was born in Bad Ocheim, Germany, in 1829, and during the European political disorder of 1848 decided to take his chances in New York, to which his two brothers already had emigrated. For two years he was a lowly peddler, hauling sundries (杂货) door-to-door to eke out (维持) a hand-to-mouth living. When a married sister in San Francisco offered to pay his way West in 1850, he jumped at the opportunity, taking with him bolts of canvas he hoped to sell for making tents. It was the wrong kind of canvas for that purpose, but while talking with a miner, he learned that pants – sturdy pants that would stand up to the rigors of the diggings – were almost impossible to find. Opportunity beckoned. On
