Riveted: The History of Jeans
Riveted: The History of Jeans reveals the fascinating and surprising story of the iconic garment. They’re more than just a pair of pants — America’s tangled past is woven deeply into the indigo fabric. From its roots in slavery to the Wild West, youth culture, hippies, high fashion and hip-hop, jeans are the fabric on which the history of American ideology and politics are writ large.
