IH-811 - Wabash Painters Pants

[MikeC]

I've washed them in the wading machine (cold/cold) with a sun dry about 5 times. The indigo is staying nicely, but it looks like much of the brown overdye has lightened up. They are also fairly hairy now. The fades are also looking nice, but not that pronounced yet. I've worn them to 5 concerts and I sweat crazily, so that has helped the evo a bit, that's also why I've washed them so much.

Hard to capture, but these fade amazingly. This is after 9 months actual wear and several washes and drys.

[Finn666]

badass…these for shorts are a brilliant idea btw.! congrats bro.

[Jsticklee]

Still no washes.. They've only seen water with me in 'em.. Summer came late to Ontario i'm just ramping up to full time wear!

Yeah, they do fade ever so nice.. Sorta light tan under the Indigo..

[bagley920]

Mine are starting to see some wear as well. My only pair of IH shorts but def not my last

[Jsticklee]

Bwahaha.. Guess you'll have to imagine the skateboard… Who thought a self shot on a skateboard would be sooooo hard with a cellphone camera... I look like a beatnick spiderman..

This is why you triple chainstitch work pants. If one or two fails, you have something to fall back on. Faded IH Wabash is amazing.

I like triple stitching in jeans too. My Railcars and some old R&Bs have that with 1/3 stitches in indigo on the inseam and belt loops.

I need to get the Wabash pants and steal your shorts idea.
