Sometime during 1873, the first riveted blue jeans were produced. The exact date is unknown as the historic records were lost in the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire. It is known that Jacob Davis was in charge of manufacturing when Levi Strauss & Co. opened its two San Francisco factories.
The denim for the riveted work pants came from the Amoskeag Mill in Manchester, New Hampshire, a company known for their high quality fabrics. Before long, all types of working men were buying the innovative new pants and spreading the word about their unrivaled durability. About 1890, these pants were assigned the manufacturing number 501 by the Levi Strauss & Co plant, which they still bear today.
Holding the patent on this process meant that for nearly twenty years, Levi Strauss & Co. was the only company allowed to make riveted clothing (jean pants and jackets) until the patent went into the public domain around 1891. When the patent expired, dozens of garment manufacturers began to imitate the original riveted clothing made popular by Levi Strauss & Co. Sloops™ Jeans have these same pocket seam rivets and are a direct descendant of the original pair made in 1873. And it was two visionary immigrants, Levi Strauss and Jacob Davis, who turned denim, thread and a little metal into the most popular clothing product in the world - blue jeans.
