Some things have been re-invented many times. Trousers were worn in Persia 2,000 years ago, for example.
@mister-moggy saidthis is MY domain,
if cultural appropriation is not appropriate then why
are non-europeans allowed to wear suits, ties, white shirts and dress shoes.
bit of hypocrisy here i say
nobody can ever pick a booger again...
@mister-moggy said... and only the French should be allowed to wear denim?

levis were invented by a men named straus and levi who took sail cloth from the old ships and made pants in the 1870's they put rivets on them to make them stronger.
so denim and the french ?
@mister-moggy saidWell,, ok, ok, but gay men wear silky pantaloons 🙂
@rookie54
the persians wore silky pantaloons, not trousers.

Denim is from France.
Originally serge de Nîmes.
The etymology for "jeans" is thought to be from Genoa which
also produced a similar cloth called bleu de Genes.
The word "jeans" was in use a hundred years before Levi Strauss.

Cultural appropriation is inevitable.
