IH-707 - Mercerised Cotton Chino Pants
-
Never seen a pair of chinos look so f'n cool
-
I had these hemmed ¾ of an inch. Here they are with a couple different shoes for color comparison.

Just ordered one of these…my first IH chinos
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
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.
-
@xtcclassic Could you please provide a short report on strech & shrinkage? Would be highly appreciated.
-
I bought mine over a year ago so my memory is pretty sketchy, and I don't think I measured them before washing anyway, but I know they didn't shrink much. And they stretch even less. Sorry I can't be more help.
-
Ok, so I think I can assume they will stay the way they are now in the long run. Thank you.
-
I did three warm - hot soaks and got but 0,5" shrinkage in the inseam. I think I'll get them hemmed now or should I have to wash them? Maybe @rocket can help?
-
did a quick meas. on my pair, shrinkage is around 0,6", after a soak and some 40C washes… @Max Power
-
Thanks a lot! Seems like I got most of the shrinkage then.
-
Not sure if this is the same material as the 710, but I got about the same amount of shrinkage (half inch) before I hemmed. Haven't noticed any further shrinkage along the way, though I hang dry now. Waist gives a little with wear, but I haven't noticed much stretch overall. (Again these are the 710s).
