PYRENEES:
ESPADRILLES
Canvas espadrilles are a summer classic from Nice to Nantucket. However, these simple shoes with their
signature braided jute soles were actually created as everyday footwear for peasants living in this mountainous
region set between southwestern France and northeastern Spain. Inexpensive and, thanks to that thick sole,
both rugged and comfortable, espadrilles were said to be worn by everyone from the King of Aragon's soldiers
to members of the French Resistance, who wore them to lead Allied pilots and soldiers from downed aircraft
across the Pyrenees from Occupied France and into Spain on ancient routes developed by Basque smugglers.
SAN FRANCISCO:
SCOTLAND:
America's quintessential contribution to the world of fashion
may have started in San Francisco, but Levi Strauss, who
popularized the sturdy work pants, was born in Bavaria in 1829.
After emigrating to New York in 1848, Strauss worked in the
dry-goods business his brothers had started. Five years later, at the
age of 24, he headed west, to California, where he opened Levi
Strauss & Co. As Strauss was building his business, Jacob Davis, a
Reno, Nevada-based tailor who purchased canvas and denim from
Strauss, had fulfilled a client's request for durable pants
by using metal rivets to reinforce stress points.
Word spread, and soon Davis was
unable to keep up with demand
for his creation. Fearing that
someone would steal his idea,
but not wealthy enough to
afford to apply for a
patent, Davis went into
business with Strauss. They
patented the riveted pants in
1873. At the Levi's
headquarters on Battery Street, a
small museum tells even more of
the company's story.
Though worn for centuries in Scotland, tartans
were banned by the British government in 1746 as
an attempt to control the country's rebellious clans.
When the law was repealed 36 years later, many
families had no recollection of their clan's pattern.
That all changed in 1822, when King George IV
visited Edinburgh and it was requested that local
leaders greet him in their proper clan tartan. Many
of the patterns invented for that event are still used
today. Made from wool, tweed is a rough, durable
fabric that was originally used to make outdoor gear
for hunters and farmers. Some tweeds, like
Shetland, are named for the breed of sheep whose
wool was used to create the fabric. Tweeds are also
geographic names - Donegal, Saxony - or, as in
the case of Harris Tweed, actually branded.
