Jacob Davis, a Reno Nevada tailor, writes to Levi Strauss,
telling him about the process he invented to rivet the
pocket corners on men’s pants to make them stronger.
He suggests the two men take out a patent on the
process together and Levi agrees.

5. 1873
• .
Levi Strauss & Jacob Davis are granted a patent on the process
of riveting pants by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on May 20.
It is patent number 139,121 and this is the invention of the blue
jean. The pants - called “waist overalls” - have one back pocket with
the Arcuate stitching design, a watch pocket, a cinch, suspender
buttons and a rivet in the crotch. We don’t know the origin of the
Arcuate

6. 1873
There may have been a tradition of pocket stitching on men’s
workwear but this has not been found in any research done so far.
The cinch and suspender buttons were standard on men’s pants.
Keep in mind that we did not invent the cut or fit of the waist
overalls; what we did was take traditional men’s work pants and
rivet them, creating the new category of workwear which we today
call blue jeans

7. 1890
The rivet patent goes into the public domain, so that Levi Strauss & Co.
is not longer the exclusive manufacturer of riveted clothing.
Lot numbers are first assigned to the products being manufactured. 501
is used to designate the famous copper-riveted waist overalls. We don’t
know why this number was chosen. We also made a 201 jean, which
was a less expensive version of the pants, as well as other products
using other three-digit numbers

8. 1971
The word “Levi’son the red Tab device is now stitched in
white with a capital “L” only; the “E” looks like it changed,
leading to the vintage clothing concept of “Big E” and “little e.”
This was done to conform to the company’s new housemark –
the “batwing” – which was adopted in 1967 and in which the
word “Levi’s” is meant to be the proper name of our founder,
Levi Strauss.

patent for an improvement in fastening the seams of pockets.
The improvement consists in the employment of a metal rivet
or eyelet for fastening the seams.
