Conners Sewing Factory – the Miura-46

Video: Interview about the Miura-46

I think it was about a year ago that I first heard about the guys at Conners Sewing Factory and their Miura 46-model, also known as S409XXX. Back then I only knew that Miura-san was a denim collector and that the guys at Conner Sewing Factory had made a great replica of a pair of ’46 Levi’s from his collection; now I know Miura-san have over 3000 vintage Levi’s pieces from the 1920-1940’s in his collection and we have lots of good stuff to look forward to.

A year later I stumbled on this great thread on Denimbro and Double O Souls acquisition of not only the jeans but also the jacket they made later on. It provided a great deal of knowledge, but there’s also lots of fun stuff on Conners Sewing Factory’s Youtube account, like this one. I definitely urge you to watch the video, read the few pages of the thread and check out the linked Instagram account below if you’re into the repro game.
