@DrBabyhorse:

Very exciting. I remember seeing a post with the colors. Anybody care to remind me what they are?

I believe navy, brown, and khaki. I'm also super excited about the selvedge chinos!

@Giles:

Yes they will.  They are being remade atm.  I expect late Sept/Early Oct availability….

Thanks! So they are 'Extant'?

[Giles]

Possibly, I've never asked…. But in the meantime, I've un-endangered them....

Yes! Super excited, just a little worried when Giles mentioned they were slimmer.

@DrBabyhorse:

I had these hemmed ¾ of an inch. Here they are with a couple different shoes for color comparison.

Are those Red Wing handsewn shoes?

Just ordered one of these…my first IH chinos

[Max Power]

And I received them yesterday. Will try to take & upload some Pictures, have not even tried them on as I don't want to stain the fabric. But I can tell it's the nicest chino I've ever seen. Would never have guessed that I would wear one, but I think this could be the one exception to the rule.

I've been wearing my pair at work five days a week for a year or so, they're pretty great. Has anyone had a crotch repair done on theirs? If so, who did the work?

I saw these at SE & although not the weight I expect from IH the build quality was nice.

It was the slim chinos, sorry for the confusion. Too much  to keep up with

@xtcclassic , give me some flicks.

Please  & thank you.

@Anesthetist I had them hemmed here in town.
@madmonday I'll try to get some pics up tonight. Basically I have a small hole in my crotch (that's what she said) and some wear/damage at the hem.

Edit: Are you asking for fit pics or pics of the damage? Fit pics might take a couple days.

[madmonday]

I'll take whatever I can get. fitflicks cause I like them or shots of the chinos  so I can see how the fabric stands up to wear.

[Max Power]

I hope this helps - quick out of bed shots, size 34. I love the fabric (as I said), but it would be awesome to hear about stretch & shrinkage. The waist should not shrink much more in the long run, would be perfect if it stayed that way or even got a bit wider. Is that likely to happen?

I would also have them hemmed, but figure I need to do a soak before that to find out what the inseam will end up with.

[xtcclassic]

Damn, seeing those makes me realize how much mine have faded. @madmonday I haven't forgotten about your pics, but it might be Thursday before I can get around to it.

[Max Power]

@xtcclassic Could you please provide a short report on strech & shrinkage? Would be highly appreciated.
