SEAToday.com, Jakarta - Keberadaan saku kecil di celana jeans mungkin menjadi salah satu hal yang kerap mengundang tanya. Mengingat, saku ini terlalu mungil untuk digunakan menaruh barang.

Saking kecilnya, saku ini juga dikenal dengan beragam sebutan, termasuk kantong koin. Lantas, bagaimana asal-usul saku kecil di celana jeans ini?

Di masa kini, saku kecil tersebut tidak benar-benar ada kegunaannya. Namun di akhir 1800-an, keberadaan saku kecil ini memiliki tujuan khusus.

Dilansir dari Cosmopolitan, ternyata saku kecil di dalam saku biasa pada awalnya dirancang untuk para koboi di 1800-an untuk menyimpan jam saku mereka.

Kehadiran watch pocket ini diyakini untuk menjaga jam saku tetap aman saat mereka menunggang kuda. Hal tersebut berawal dari celana jeans pertama Levi's, yang diluncurkan ke pasar pada 1879.

Menurut blog Levi Strauss, awalnya hanya ada empat saku pada celana jeans biru, termasuk saku jam.

"Awalnya dihadirkan sebagai perlindungan untuk jam tangan saku, sesuai dengan namanya, kantong ekstra ini telah melayani banyak fungsi, terbukti dengan banyaknya sebutan: saku depan, saku kondom, saku koin, saku korek api, dan saku tiket, dan lainnya," bunyi keterangan dalam laman tersebut.
