In 1937, due to customer feedback, Levis switched their back pocket rivets to concealed rivets in an attempt to be scratch-proof. The rivets were therefore sewn over, however over time it would still wear through the denim. Eventually this led to the removal of back pocket rivets in 1966. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/767b23e4-57a9-4881-8f7c-e5d8e691d9a5/Wrangler_7icons_flat-rivets_fl.jpg Threads - History of the rivet - Wrangler developed their own version of scratch-proof rivets.

This was due to areas of weakness along seams, pocket corners and at the base of the crotch. To counteract, he decided to reinforce these stress areas with metal rivets. Created by hammering a washer onto a metal stud poking through the fabric. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/eb21c1fa-e85b-47cb-b2ed-c7c6940ab84c/vintage-levis-levis-jeans-501XX-longjohn-1937-red-tab-hidden-rivets-selvedge-selvage-original-usa-singletab-repairs-worn-out-crotchrivet-crotch-rivets-v-stitch-6.jpg Threads - History of the rivet - Over the years the design has been refined, with some slight changes to positioning of the rivets.

This is known as a sulphur bottom and helps reduce the amount of indigo for darker tones. The effect of this dyeing becomes more apparent as the jeans are worn and the indigo dye fades to expose the green dye underneath. Alternatively a sulphur top can be dyed, meaning the sulphur is added after the indigo dye. Again this will create a more green or grey denim cast which often gives a vintage appearance. In this case the denim becomes more blue after each wash because indigo is the base layer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/2e2df122-3f44-4d39-8bfe-f39ddd51764b/22.PNG Threads - Denim casts - SULPHUR Sulphur is the next most popular dye stuff after indigo for use in denim.

You imprint your lifestyle onto jeans. The older it becomes, and the more repairs you do to it, the more beautiful it gets.” - Hans Ates https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/1612122737422-VC2EMGZ8NJL9YBM9URI2/iughgjg.JPG Threads - Craft denim https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/1612122737041-U1Y69UPUTQ9DNL9U0RAJ/ghjk.JPG Threads - Craft denim https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/1612122736909-D4A5TGG52LVG3OL8M8RJ/fout.JPG Threads - Craft denim https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/1612122737888-9LFRZ5V11MFRNOOVR24M/luyfy.JPG Threads - Craft denim https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/b94a72e9-676d-4dec-a9dd-39f0d161706c/kk.jpg Threads - Craft denim - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/6f73103c-3702-4598-a513-acfbe3b9c90f/Screenshot+2024-11-30+170101.png Threads - Craft denim - Make it stand out Photo: Denham https://www.5pocketsdenim.com/blog/category/FIT monthly 0.5 https://www.5pocketsdenim.com/blog/category/FABRIC monthly 0.5 https://www.5pocketsdenim.com/blog/category/PAST monthly 0.5 https://www.5pocketsdenim.com/blog/category/WASH monthly 0.5 https://www.5pocketsdenim.com/blog/category/PRESENT monthly 0.5 https://www.5pocketsdenim.com/blog/category/FUTURE monthly 0.5 https://www.5pocketsdenim.com/home daily 1.0 2025-07-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/b13e4dd9-0fc6-4860-96bd-28da0c5f342e/LOGO.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/9d47940d-be05-42ac-b33a-ee563b33eba9/BACKGROUND+IMAGE1.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/abf5b5ea-4eae-42c1-b9d0-3091b423f008/PRESENT1.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/b395edc6-9b77-47ac-affd-15771c771968/FUTURE1.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/601565fdd5e6a55235d52e10/20a7a60f-365e-47ee-bea1-c1438d75408f/PAST1.png
