      @Giles:

      An inch of what?  Shrinkage or stretch?

      And BTW,  I wear the same size (33) in IH-634S, IHXB01 and IH-707….

      Anesthetist has it.
      I currently wear 33 inch waist which is size 34 in BBs.
      size 34 Chino is 36 inches (3 inches more than my BBs), but the site says it shrinks an inch which is still 35 inches (2 inches more than my BBs). I’m unsure if I could do 35 inches. I was wondering if maybe the chinos shrink more than the inch of shrinkage it says on the website or if there is some other consideration that would make 35 inches work?

      BTW: some people go to church on a Sunday or take a day off; I very much appreciate your help and devotion to your endeavor Mr. G-san 😉

        I need to retake the photos on the site, so I'll see how they feel compared to busters later today…

            OK.  These are tag size 33 and unwashed.  I would go for these or maybe even a 32.

            I could not get into tag size 33", and we have no 34's in stock, so these are 36' and massive (FWIW)…

                          I absolutely love wearing denim, but the fact I work in an office limits this significantly. Being able to wear these to work makes not wearing jeans a little easier. The fit is perfect and the fabric feels tough. Here's a quick office fit pic.

                            Fresh outta the dryer and I'm very happy with the fit through the knee. I'm still figuring out the cuffs but otherwise they are awesome.

                                I chose my typical size which is a 33. After a wash they are close to 34" in the waist which is a tiny bit loose but I can also tuck in a shirt.

                                      They are substantial but super comfortable. I see myself wearing these a lot around the Holidays when jeans are a little too casual.

                                          Just pulled the trigger on these.

                                          I've never owned a chino because most of them are only around 32"ish in the inseam. I hope after shrinkage this one will still work for me.

                                          Looking forward to my first chino. The pics in this thread really look promising, guys!  🙂

                                            Chinos have arrived!  😘 😘 😘

                                            Pre-wash fit size 33:

                                            IH-707 review:

                                            First thoughts: Sturdy well made pants with a sleek look and industrial feel.

                                            Fabric: The fabric is stiff, dense, and shiny. It is actually the closest I’ve seen to WWII military selvedge chino fabric in color and feel. The fabric is very soft, but also feels very heavy. The color is khaki with a warmer slightly orange-ish hue. There appears to be virtually zero give in the fabric pre-wash.

                                            Stitching: The stitching is thick poly stitching and is perfectly over-engineered as usual.

                                            Fit: it feels like sort of a traditional khaki fit and is a bit baggy below the upper leg. They don’t look huge in the pictures and according to my family the look fine, but the feel massive pre-wash. I would like them to shrink a bit so I am washing them in hot water and I’ll post some post-wash fit pictures when they’re dry.

                                            Construction: Belt loops are sewn into the waistband; this is a feature that I really like to see. The zipper is a solid brass Tallon that is significantly heavier than I thought it would be. I believe it’s actually the same weight zipper as is on my IH Superblack  straight cut jeans. I also like the copper snap on the back pocket and single zinc button for the fly. The pocket bags are nice and thick and they’re a good size too.

                                            Overall these are superb chino pants.
