No they are the finished product.
The raw materials would be the COTTON for the cloth and thread, and the COPPER, BRASS or STEEL for the buttons, snaps, reinforcement rivets and zippers.

A raw material is like when you reduce fractions to the least common denominator. Jeans are made of several raw products. The cotton that is woven into the fabric, and spun into the thread that sews them together. If they are stretch jeans there is probably some Lycra woven in as well, the raw material for Lycra is a synthetic polymer. There is the indigo dye, and sometimes bleach for design. Some brands use leather for the lable. Don't forget the metal for the buttons and metal for the zipper.

No, jeans are a manufactured good.
A raw material is basically something that has been pulled straight out of the earth (For example the cotton used to make the jeans)

No.
Jeans are a product of raw materials...They are crafted, stitched, dyed.
The metal for the rivets and zipper are raw materials (from the Earth), the cotton is a raw material.

No because jeans are the finished products, not the material so it would not be a raw material...
