Ever wonder how jeans are made? And why they're so cheap? Here's how a garment factory make 'em:

It takes about 1.6 meters of denim fabric, several hundred meters of sewing thread, 6 rivets, 1 or 5 jeans buttons, 4 labels (usually imitation leather), and optionally a zipper to make a pair of jeans. An average jeans factory can make about 2.500 pair of jeans per day.

On average, it will take about 15 minutes and 12 steps to make one pair of blue jeans.
