Jeans are now a very popular form of casual dress around the world. They come in many styles and colors, however "blue jeans" are particularly identified with American culture, especially the American Old West. Americans spent more than $14 billion on jeans in 2004.
Trousers made from corduroy or canvas are sometimes called "jeans". However, by definition the word "jeans" strictly refers to trousers made out of denim.
TYPES OF JEANS
FLARE CUT
Flare cut is similar to boot cut but a little bit tighter and is cut wider or flare out from knee down, looking much more a bell-like shape at the hem. The flare-cut jeans are fitted at the waist down to the leg and pretty roomy of the ankle part. This style of jeans is usually worn below your natural waist and should not be so much tight through the leg. Some said this kind of jeans is never out of style and it’s so common to wear at any occasions.
STRAIGHT CUT
Straight cut is a kind of jeans pants which the circumference of their legs is consistent from the hip down to the leg. The straight-cut jeans are usually cut straight down from the waist making it fits your natural waist and is slim through the ankles and bottom. The bottom does not flare out. This type of jeans is classic but it has set some conditions for those who are fond of it. You have to make sure if your body is perfect enough for the straight-cut jeans as it’s tapered off slightly at the ankle.

This style of trousers was worn by both men and women and suit with a hip length tunic, was very typical of fashion trends of 1971 and 1972. Bell-bottomed pants were widely used among sailors in the past and also known as the sailors’ traditional clothing. With its wide legs, the sailors can easily pull wet pants off over heavy boots, helping them to discard heavy clothing when fell overboard.
