IH-811 - Wabash Painters Pants

[MikeC]

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

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..

[MikeC]

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.

[MikeC]

Size up.

@MikeC:

Size up.

For the shorts idea Mike? I was thinking about doing it as well but at my usual 33. Then again, I have bird legs.

[mclaincausey]

I think G said even with them as pants they look better sized up.  There are no 34s for folks like us Anesthetist, at least in G's stock.  May go Rakuten but I did ask for a restock email.

[Giles]

Just replied to your restock mail.  About 2 weeks.

[Anesthetist]

Beautiful pics Mike. They are slowly breaking my willpower to hold out on these.

Ridiculously good Urb. I love my 803 chicken legs, but next summer might see me in a similar pair.

[ohighyo]

I'll be glad when mine look like these

[urbanwoodsman]

Thanks guys. MikeC gets most of the credit for these. He gave them to me about 2yrs ago now I think. I've washed them 15+ times. Super soft and comfy.

[Finn666]

everyone should own a pair of these as shorts. shane made me want those pretty bad now 

[Giles]

Can't disagree, mine…....
