@Chris:

I also think UPS is getting more rigorous about hitting customers with fees lately.  Corporate profits must be down this quarter.

true…30CHF fees for me and after having 3 invoices in the mail, since they always try to reach me while i'm away at work, i've finally changed the delivery address to the work address and so i should receive the famous blue bag by tomorrow, friday...instead of tuesday -.-

[Giles]

Not true.  Getting anything into Switzerland without charges is almost impossible and always has been.  Most of the customs staff are customers of VMC, they know what the stuff is and what it costs.  Hiding is virtually impossible…

Random swiss dude: That pant was 75 CHF.

Swiss customs guy: I buy my stuff at VMC.

Random swiss dude: Why me…

Crappy phone pics, incoming:

These pants are a beast!!!  I love them, but I am wishing for a 36, or maybe even a 34 (just like y'all said, I know, I know).  This 23oz. serge is really stiff, and it means that the bagginess in the legs, seat, and waist kind of stands out, instead of draping like my other baggy cargoes.  I'm definitely going to hang onto them, because I've been known to fluctuate in weight, and I'm hopeful that the as the serge softens they will hang off me in a more pleasing way.

Thoughts?

They look at least one size too big, and the material is heavy and stubborn to the point where it probably won't drape as you want.

ok, this is crazy …thanks for letting me know though!

IH stretches more than you would think. Can easily go one size down from your smallest size no problem.

[sabergirl]

That would've been great, if one size down was available!  Sometimes, ya gotta cinch up your belt, y'know?

We should go back to good ole smuggling!..

[OTM]

Any plans for H to do another run of these.  Maybe in some different colours.

[Giles]

Not that I know of I am afraid.  We'll def do other cargos, just not sure of the fabrics yet

[mclaincausey]

This is one of my big IH regrets, not having copped a pair of these.

[sabergirl]

Yep, even thought they're a bit too big, I've been loving mine!! This fabric really is somethin' else.

[sabergirl]

Got a little shrinkage out of a hot wash!  And a lot of wrinkles…  :-\ Still, I'm pumped.

[davito]

Very nice sabergirl, dont worry about the wrinkles they settle wear em hard

[sabergirl]

Thanks, man!  I've been loving these.  They definitely are gonna get some wear.

[4c]

Those look really nice sabergirl, making me want to get these cargos.
