IH-705 - Ultra Heavy Selvage Serge Cargo Pants - Brown & Olive Green

[Cole]

I would love to get my hands on one of these in a size 33 in both colors and maybe a little less dirty then the ones pictures above.

What the hell where you doing @D97x7 , roling around in concrete powder?

Plastering this week!

None left in Japan…

@D97x7:

Would be all over some more of these if they, or something similar, ever come back. Best things IH ever made, IMHO! 

This.  So true.  IH in all its glory.  Heavy.  Comfortable.  Better and better with wear.  Certainly the best pant IH has ever done in my mind.  Would love to see another run in slightly diff. colours.  A super heavyweight green and black herringbone material like the pants with that nasty cinch coming in the spring would be awesome.

Finally got a pair in the right size, the other day. They've barely come off, since.

Miserable day to be in/out of the house today. Felt very happy with this combo. Love these pants! Nothing they can't do to turn a day of house work and getting wet into a dream.

I know what you mean, Snowy. These pants just keep getting better and better with every wear or wash. Got some nice patina going on

Thanks to @madmonday I got these beauties. My original intention was to chop them - the length is indeed borderline short. or do you think it would work like that? Man, they are heavy (23 oz!). And super nice - love the red / green contrast.

[Finkster]

The red / green contrast is awesome!

The pants are very 'roomy' at the legs - not my taste - but, whatever
The length is o.k. .. I wouldn't cut this beast.

[D97x7]

Borderline as you say, I wouldn't cut though!

[Finn666]

I say chop…your legs look like a trunk of a tree compared to the look of your upper body.
cutting these to shorts should be dope imo...go for it!

[Max Power]

Just what I thought too. Will have a try wetehr the length will work out, compared to other shorts. I would need to chop them pretty close to the pockets.

[sabergirl]

I think you could go either way! 705 shorts would be dope, but the pants look all right. I'd say it depends how crazy short inseams make you. I personally can't stand when I feel like my pants are too short.

@Max Power they look awesome, however I think if you chop them they'd look even better in mho they are a tad too roomy in the leg

[Max Power]

Thanks for all the feedback. I have them chopped and compared them to other shorts I own - they should turn out nice.

[ShootThePier]

Maybe a taper?
I think they only look short due to the proportion of the hem opening to the inseam from the knee down.

[Haddtoo 555]

Max, I feel that they're big all over….....that fit is a great example of why I buy pants small and stretch to fit.

[spitfiredealer]

While I agree they look too big. I dunno why you would want 23oz shorts? Surely shorts are to be worn when it's too hot for trousers. I would be tapering them and keeping them for some nice comfy alternatives to jeans.

[Max Power]

Didn't expect that many opinions…well I need the waist of a 36 and want my shorts to sit loose (especially in this weight). I live in an area that's not known for super hot climate, so I think 23oz shorts are doable.

My old Carhartt Bermudas have a very similar fit. It's worth a try, I'll report back when I receive them.

[Finkster]

One more advantage for a chop job is - you can spare the fight for the 'ultra limited official Camp shorts'
