Further references in the text suggest that it's the material being discussed, as opposed to the final product... so "denim" it is. Hvala svima!

agree Mark Daniels : Da, kada se kaže "teksas jakna" misli se na "denim jacket", ali "jeans" se naravno kaže "farmerke" a ne "teksas pantalone" :)

neutral Mark Daniels : While the material denim is referred to as "jeans", e.g. you will hear "jeans jacket" used, I would say "denim" is the "technical" term, and more appropriate here.
