So I've been wondering the difference between Jeans and Denim and how they are often used interchangeably, then I stumbled upon this information online and I think it's quite useful for any fashion-oriented individual out there cool

Jeans

Jeans is one garment worn by people of all ages around the world that needs no introduction today. Introduced by Levi Strauss as a copper riveted cotton trouser in the 2nd half of the 19th century, jeans has today become a type of trouser that is seen in the wardrobe of most men and women across the world. It has a universal appeal and a very youthful and rugged image.

Jeans is considered casual wear and worn by men and women outside workplaces. Students cannot live without their basic 5 pocket jeans and have many pairs of jeans in their wardrobes to be ready for all occasions. Jeans are preferred by people over other formal trousers as these can be worn without the need for press. Jeans also do not require washing frequently like other formal trousers. Blue is the color that gives jeans their unique identity though today they are available in many over dyed colors.

Denim

Denim is the name of the fabric that is used to make jeans. It is a fabric made of cotton twill that is 100% cotton and very comfortable. This fabric is used all over the world to make jeans, jackets, shirts, purses, bags, and many other accessories for men and women of all ages. However, ‘jeans’ is a garment that has given this fabric an identity. This fabric is woven with warp yarn that is blue cotton and a filling yarn that is white cotton to create twill that has diagonal running parallel lines. Denim is so commonly used to make readymade garments and accessories that today it is found in all stores selling readymade apparels.

What is the difference between Jeans and Denim?

• Denim is the fabric whereas jeans is the trouser that is made of denim cloth

• Denim is used to make not just jeans but also shirts and skirts apart from many other accessories

• Denim is made of heavy twill

• All jeans are denim, but not all denims are jeans

• Denim is a fashion fabric used to make many things, whereas jeans is just one of the garments made from denim
