Ok, now a serious answer. I really think they cater to a different audience.

All in all the Freewheelers are probably the better jeans. Cleaner construction, high quality materials, better pattern, more unique denim.
The CSF really focus on the "authenticity" even if this means deliberately including failures. But (as you think as well @Dr_Heech ) using the period correct sewing machines and using the same sewing techniques is
something you won't find on other jeans on this level.

Price-wise the FW clearly win as you get a lot for your money and you don't pay a dick ;)

But in the end, the best jeans is the one that fits you best and which you want to put on each day and that's why I said SC 1946 ;)

At last my CSF 1941 s409xxx model have finally been hemmed so they can now return to the rotation of jeans of which l enjoy wearing. @Mr Black did an outstanding job as usual even going so far as to replicate the dual orange/yellow stitching on the original hems. Photos show Og hem off cuts compared to freshly sewn new hems. Compared to the other pair l have (1944 s409xxx) these are much darker but my modern camera phone just can't capture it, even under cloudy skies. Probably due to my lack of understanding of modern phones but anyway you get the general idea.

@superfuture Here^ is a good example of what myself and @Geeman were discussing when using the upload tool. 2 of the 3 pics are on their side, which were not intentional. When l saw they were on their side in the preview, l went back to my photo gallery and compensated by preemptively moving them once round in preparation. This had no effect so l am stumped, maybe it's just a case of Computer says No.
