In 1885, jeans could be bought in the US for $1.50 (approximately $36 in 2010). Today in America, a pair of durable jeans can be purchased in the United States for about 40 dollars.[2] On the other hand, many brands of jeans are currently available for much less. In the United States, there is a robust resale market for used jeans, and the prices obtained for these pre-owned jeans vary tremendously. As the price of cotton rises, the cost of blue jeans is expected to rise as well.
Americans spent more than $14 billion on jeans in 2004 and $15 billion in 2005.
