Denims

Denim fabric originated in 17th century France in a town called Nimes and was called “serge de Nimes.” Later shortened to denim, it was a twill cloth made of wool and silk which gained popularity in the United States towards the end of the 19th century (albeit in cotton) when a sturdy cloth was needed for ranchers and miners.
