Ursprungligen postat av Dornier
Jeans är ju faktiskt judiska byxor skapade av juden Levi Strauss.
Jag bär aldrig jeans.

Seriöst, innan man fattar ett sådant konstigt beslut bör man väl slå upp ordet jeans i en encyklopedisk samling i alla fall, wikipedia t.ex.
Citat:
The story of jeans begins in the city of Genoa, in Italy, famous for its cotton corduroy, called either jean or jeane; the jeans fabric from Genoa (at that time) was in fact very similar to corduroy. During the Republic of Genoa, the jeans were exported by sailors of Genoa throughout Europe. In the French city of Nimes, weavers tried to reproduce the fabric exactly, but without success. However, with experimentation, and through trial and error, they developed another twill fabric that became known as denim, literally "de Nimes". Only at the end of the eighteenth century did jeans arrive in the United States.
