iPod Jeans Back in 2006, Levi's ventured into the creation of iPod jeans. The jeans featured an iPod docking link attached to a red ribbon wire that is hidden in a side pocket, and a small control unit is built into a higher, hip-height pocket, offering the only real advantage over simply putting your iPod into a pocket of jeans you already own. A retractable headphone unit is included. And each pair cost around $255.
