  Denim - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Denim, in American usage since the late 18th century, denotes a rugged cotton twill textile, in which the weft passes under two (twi- "double") or more warp fibers, producing the familiar diagonal ribbing identifiable on the reverse of the fabric, which distinguishes denim from cotton duck.
Denim was traditionally colored blue with indigo dye to make blue "jeans," though "jean" denoted a different, lighter cotton textile.
Denim jackets (or jean jackets), originally worn by cowboys as an alternative to a cotton duck "chore coat", have also gained fashion status since the 1950s.

Denim, actually historically distinct from jean cloth, is a durable fabric that was originally imported from England and known by its weavings as a coarse cotton drilling, which was suitable in wear and comfort for work clothes.
The origins of the word "denim" are a bit confused, but may date to an English corruption of the French for a similar twill-weave fabric made of silk and wool referred to as "serge de Nîmes".
While denim is woven from one colored thread and one white thread, jean fabric was woven of two threads of the same color.

 Levi Strauss & Co. | History of Denim   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
Denim is more than a cotton fabric; it inspires strong opinions from historians, designers, teenagers, movie stars, reporters and writers.
As denim moved across the Atlantic in the late 18th century, American textile mills started to produce their own denim fabric on a small scale, mostly as a way to become independent from foreign producers (mainly the English).
Denim, then, seems to have been reserved for work clothes, when both durability and comfort were needed.

De Wilde, who was Oscar-nominated for his performance, was 9 when he made the movie in the summer and early fall of 1951, already an acclaimed veteran of 492 Broadway stage performances of The Member of the Wedding; he won a special Golden Globe for his work in the 1952 film version.
The gossip columnist Hedda Hopper apparently called him "the king of child actors." After Shane, he had his own TV series, Jamie (1953), and was in another 11 films, including Blue Denim (1959) and Hud (1963).
Looking him up in a film encyclopedia in the early '80s, I was shocked to learn he'd been killed from injuries sustained in a road accident in Denver, where he was to appear in a stage production of Butterflies Are Free, at age 30 in 1972.
