Levi’s is one of the most famous denim jeans brands in history and in the world. In 1853, Bavarian born immigrant, Levi Strauss, set up a small dry goods store selling clothing, blankets, handkerchiefs, etc in San Francisco. The business grew and prospered through the years.

In 1872-73, a Reno, Nevada tailor, Jacob Davis collaborated with Levi Strauss to use New Hampshire’s Amoskeag Mill denim and produce his newly invented process of using copper rivets in waist overalls and pants.

In 1886, the Two Horse brand leather patch was first used on the waist overalls. This symbolized strength of the pants and recognition as an originator of patent riveted clothing.

Today, American icon Levi’s continues to clothe the world. Currently, the company operates other brands such as Dockers, Denizen and Signature by Levi Strauss & Co. which are worn by all walks of life. Recently, they introduced Water<Less Jeans and Levi’s Curve ID.

The name Paige is an English surname and a spelling variation of Page. In medieval times, a page was an attendant to a knight. It is from an Old French word meaning “young helper” or an apprentice.

Paige Premium Denim was founded in 2004 by Miss California 1991 and fit model Paige Adams-Geller. Before starting her own jeans line, Paige Adams-Geller worked diligently as the industry’s sought after fit model for denim brands such as Guess, Seven, Joe’s Jeans, Lucky Brand, Citizens of Humanity, Habitual, True Religion and a lot more. As a fit model, she helped out denim designers carve their own unique brand identities.

Her extensive experience, goofy enthusiasm, attention to technical and creative details paved way for her independent fashion venture. She launched Paige Premium Denim to prove that you don’t have to be a size zero to look and feel great in a pair of designer jeans. The brand focused on creating the “perfect fitting jean” that accentuates the butt and curves.

Headquartered and manufactured in Los Angeles, California, Paige Premium Denim not only established a flagship store in Beverly Hills but also expanded to Europe as well. Today, the brand also offers men’s, kid’s, maternity and petite clothing lines.

In the socio-political arena, the term “Banana Republic” refers to a politically unstable country which relies on limited agricultural resources, such as bananas. The nation is also governed by a dictatorial military junta exploiting large scale plantations. Today, the term is often used to describe a backward dictatorial regime where corruption, extortion and fraud are rampant.

On the other hand, in fashion, it is quite the opposite. Banana Republic is a luxury brand recognized as a sophisticated workwear and modern casual clothing line. The “Banana Republic look” is prevalent among the early 20s young professionals to the mid 30s business executives. During the spring summer seasons, the Banana Republic classic safari and travel look roars out in the urban jungle.

In 1978, Mel and Patricia Zeigler founded the original Banana Republic brand. As journalists, Mel and Patricia frequently traveled to different locations and countries. When Mel Zeigler was assigned to Australia, he chanced upon an army surplus store with British military supplies. Due to a large positive public response towards the safari jackets and cargo shorts he bought, the couple decided to purchase more and sell them back in the United States. It started with 2 stores focusing on a safari and travel themed apparel. Later on, the brand became famous for its themed decoration stores featuring authentic safari elements such as Jeeps, foliage, steam, sand and many more.

In 1983, Gap Inc. acquired Banana Republic and rebranded the label as a mainstream luxury clothing retailer. To separate itself from the modern casualwear brand Gap and lower tier streetwear apparel Old Navy, Banana Republic houses its stores with historic locations and classic architectural interiors. Throughout the years, Banana Republic has established itself as a premier casual luxury apparel. Fairly recently, Banana Republic has expanded to the Middle East, Asia and England.

It has always been one of the Best-In-Class apparel for the active blue collar worker throughout the decades. For 120 years, it made workwear transcend its essence and be known for its exceptional durability, comfort, quality and fit. It is known for its utility apparel, work clothes, denim jeans, dungarees, jackets, overalls, coveralls and a lot more.

Established in 1889, Hamilton Carhartt began making workwear based on higher standards. The Carhartt brand initially manufactured clothing for railroad workers. Over time, the company has continually developed fabrics and procedures which extend the durability of its material yet not sacrificing comfort and technology. Carhartt Master Cloth, for example, was designed by their mills for use in their garments.

Growing out from Kentucky and Michigan, the Carhartt label has expanded its operations and distribution to Europe, Middle East and Africa. Furthermore, the company also diversified its clothing line to Carhartt EMEA Workwear for the European market, Carhartt Streetwear for the active youth, Carhartt Canada and Carhartt for Women. Today, the company still remains as a family owned operation.
