great fit.  also nice wabash fit.  I loved that shirt but I didnt get the wide version and the taper was too strong

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Thanks but all this praise belongs to MaxPower as it is/was his shirt

[Aries]

Nailed it bF.

[edmond]

those looks a bit too tight on you? or what? size 34 on those or 36 tillman?

 

shirts looks great though

[beautiful_FrEaK]

Not too tight at all. They are damn comfy and movement is not restricted at all. Since the denim is also quite light it helps with the cosiness. But the way the jeans are cut, it exaggerates your butt (similar to Full Count).

They are size 36.

 

When do you get your pair Ed?

but wait the 46 and 47 is exactly the same cut?

[edmond]

hes so busy hes just about to finish them!

 

 i wanna order a pair of 47's is the 46 and 47 sharing the same cut?

 

thanks

[beautiful_FrEaK]

They are all pretty similar but according to Flash there are some differences. Flash’s ’46 has a wider waist than his ‘47

ohhh

[kcobain123]

sorry i am new to Conners Sewing factory, do they have a site for ordering ?

[aho]

Damnit flash, I'm caving...I want the 46's to collect, and 47's to wear...

[Flash]

Was speaking with aho earlier about a contest .....? So this is just to see if there is any interest ? Bear in mind that the jeans are ¥45000 and there won't be a special run with special details but a model from there current lineup . Please pm me if you are interested

[garden gnomes in space]

haha you guys are unstoppable.  

[Flash]

Lol , I won't be buying another pair mate just waiting for my type 1 to arrive and that's me for a while

Would be really cool to see more conners around here so hopefully some members are interested

[Bobbo]

Haha, I hope you guys pull it off. Perhaps you can even get b_F to stay committed to his pair if you run a contest? 

 

Won't join in on the fun but I'm looking forward to drooling on the sidelines. 

[beautiful_FrEaK]

If it requires a new pair I am definitely out. If it allows/forces me to wear my current pair I might be interested. Although the RJBxTFHxR&H keep me well entertained at the moment.

[aho]

I'm thinking it's not feasible at this point...Price too high, not enough interest, and don't want to step on any toes (TCB Contest!). Let's shelve this for now! Either way, I'm getting 46's lol

[edmond]

The 46 ia cutt like the ww2?

[aho]

@Flash, berberjin did a very nice comparison of a 1946 vs WWII model a while back that will have you geeking over your M-46's. I have much more respect for this year now, and it's become my favorite which sucks because I'll likely never find an actual vintage pair to worship; I had no idea it was so highly revered among vintage collectors in Japan though it makes sense now why we did the Devis contest ("green stamp" 1946), and why this is Conners representative model (thank you Miura-san). To translate some of it, essentially it has the same heavy WWII denim, uses leftover war materials (unbranded rivets mixed with stamped, rounded hidden rivets instead of flat, frayed inside button fly) but is starting to show the standards of what we now know as the essential 5 pocket jean. As a fellow denim nerd, I'm sure you'll appreciate these nuances that make 1946 very unique in function and practicality, and it's so amazing to see how faithfully Konaka-san reproduces it: http://berberjin.blog104.fc2.com/blog-entry-7679.html

 

 

@ed, should be! Cut change happens at 1947 I think, not sure how that translates with Conners cuts though as I haven't studied the measurements. More antifit/tight waist and wider thighs with 47

 

Legit need two pairs...Gonna get the 46's to collect, and will order maybe a WWII "San Francisco" version (overlock stitch on coin pocket is very cool; check insta)

What fit was the Santa Cruz version? I saw a pic on his instagram and was curious (Since Santa Cruz hold a special place in my heart I feel like I need a pair. Also kind of a random town to choose (if in fact it's the California town). 

[aho]

^They're actually just stitching variations on the WWII model for the upcoming Clutch Collection show! I'm banking on Konaka-san agreeing to do one specific type over another, of course it's his prerogative to agree to do it or not ;D

 

My guess is they're so named based on wherever the respective vintage pair he's reproducing was sourced from (via Miura-san)

Ah okay that makes sense! I got got of excited when I saw Santa Cruz, so was curious. The post said the article would be be in English so need to get my hands on it! Very curious to read about it!

Yeah , remember this from a while back . The Berberjin blog is one of my daily checks

[Flash]

The 46 ia cutt like the ww2?

The overall shape of the cut is similar but the ww2 has a slightly larger waist the the hips taper in a bit

[edmond]

Ahh i need to order a 46 ...

[edmond]

Does the denim stretch? Like wh? Or like tcb? Or samurai?

[Flash]

The ww2 denim ( used on the 46 as well ) stretches quite well but the 47 denim does not

[Flash]

just a little thread bump , looking forward to the photobomb when aho gets his pair
