Conners Sewing Factory

Great posts and info on the brand. You must be very pleased with the fit you got on several of those pairs. It kind of reminds me of Ooe Yofukuten. Very nice. The Japanese artisans just continue to impress. Thank you for sharing.

thanks for the kind words Seul
if im honest id put them at the opposite end of the of of the spectrum to Ooe , where Ooe tends to be super clean and meticulous construction Yoshiaki ( csf ) makes the jeans as they were made …. flaws and all ( this is what drew me to the brand ) , Ooe like Iron Heart make great jeans but they are examples of what can be achieved as opposed to what was

Great photos and information. I've seen you post them on instagram and they look smart.

Appreciate all the photos and thoughts @Flash. Conners has been a brand that has intrigued me for awhile now. May have to pick your brain on fits beforehand if I ever decide to pull the trigger.

Adding my kudos, the jeans look great. And in particular those cuffs look so cool on you, I won't give up on badgering you to abstain from hemming!
That jacket worn buttoned up like a shirt in the diner picture with your beautiful son, it would not by any chance be the very one offered for sale at present? -
Ah, I ought to have looked more closely! Anyhow, looking good (and will be cooler still when rocked hard and faded).

Great find. Looks like a solid company and jeans. Looks like the left legs like themselves some leg twist haha. I really like the fit of the ww jeans as i never seen a silhouette of that kind at the waist. Must be comfy and tons
of pocket space! -
Thanks again guys!

of pocket space!Yes it’s a very nice brand. All sewn by Yoshiaki himself on vintage and period correct sewing machines and using production techniques corresponding to the time. So he won’t use a sewing machine from the 50s when producing a WW2 model. And most is hand folded so you have a lot of variation. Surprisingly, the leg twist isn’t as strong as on other repro brands and I miss this a bit
I learned to embrace the twist.
The “taper” at the waist is really prominent resulting in a hip-hugging fit. So the pockets don’t offer that much space and they are rather small (also period correct, fabric was scarce due to limitation).
