A threaded connection includes a first tube having a pin, the pin having pin threads, a circumferential concave outer pin surface, and a pin torque shoulder at a free end, the concave outer pin surface including a pin seal surface and a continuous extension from the pin seal surface to the pin torque shoulder. A second tube has a box, the box has box threads for interacting with the pin threads, a circumferential inner box surface and a box torque shoulder. The inner box surface has a radially inwardly extending box seal surface, the pin seal surface contacts the box seal surface to define a seal. The seal is spaced from the free end when the pin and box torque shoulders contact, the continuous extension continuing from the seal to the pin torque shoulder. A method for making-up a threaded connection is also provided.
