IH-804 Double Knee Loggers Brown Duck & Super Black

[Simon]

This is a tough one; the heart says "go with choice 'A', paraffin coated double knee Ducks are going to look so awesome". Where as the head says "20oz duck doubled at the knee is going to be hard work and your light cream leather seats are not going to thank you for covering them in paraffin, go with choice 'D'".

As Seul said, I'm going to have to wait to see the real thing, or some fit pics I think?

Alright, before I make any decisions I need to know a few things…

1. Besides the weight difference of 4oz, will they be exactly the same cut as the IH-801?
2. Because the weight is different from the IH-801, what does that do to the rate of shrinkage?

I am wondering because I have both the IH-801 and IH-802 (W33) but have never washed or soaked either one. Hoping that they shrink up a bit when I finally do. I was thinking about getting the single knee versions in W32 but if they shrink a bunch I will size up like I did previously. Any help would be much appreciated as my order is ready to be placed...

The questions have been asked….G

[Giles]

The cut is exactly the same as all the previoius and current Logger patterns (IH-801, 802 and 803).

Haraki is performing shrink tests at the moment.

Perfect, thank you G! I await the shrinkage tests for my final decision…

[mvb]

will these stretch? did the 16oz stretch?

[Giles]

Personally I did not get much stretch on my 800's.  The 20oz, I think will hold it's shape.  Duck is not a twill, so does not have the same propensity to stretch…G

[mvb]

thought so, thanks
34 will do then

[Giles]

mvb.  Brown or black, double or single, coated or not?  G

[mvb]

brown, single and non coated please mr. g

[LandoCal126 0]

Shrink test results G?

[Giles]

Not yet.  When I have em I'll post em. G

[LandoCal126 0]

Sorry to bug you. Just want to place my official order. I am pretty sure it will be my tentative order from a few posts above… Thank G!

[Giles]

It's OK.  We have time and I won't forget you.  I promise…G

I know I'm a bit late jumping in, but hopefully I'm not too late.  I'd love a pair of the brown duck, single knee, no paraffin in size 34.

Having said that, I'm like Lando- I may have to revise if there is significant shrinkage.

[Giles]

HoustonChris - No probs.

Hey Giles,

I would like to order one pair of brown double knee with the paraffin treatment,
What length would that be? any chance of 36 or 37?

Thanks

Andrew
