IH-816-OLV - Olive Green Whipcord Work Pant

[Seul]

Got mine - thanks team. It's 30C° here though so fit pics are currently not possible as I would melt within a minute. Currently posting from under a cold shower.

just got it back from the tailor, and a quick snap at work.  Loving the fit so far.  For reference, I'm 5'7'' and took a 34.
May be able to dethrone my current go to chino, which is the Joe McCoy Blue Seal.

Looks great! Glad the grey whipcord is a ways off….might be able to save for it when they release.

arrow: I love you like an Omnipollo impy stout, but please don't refer to these as "chinos"… And are you wearing those in an office environment?.. Dear GODS man... You're ruining their lives!.. 

(Seriously though: fab look!.. Enjoy 'm!..)

That grey stitching btw...

Thanks guys! 
Hahah @Seul … ok dude, I stand corrected, they are the most legit work pants.  And they're really beautiful, you can dress em up or cuff them the Seul way.  I'm beating myself for losing out on the browns, so I got my eyes on the upcoming grey ones.

I have one tailor that I've been using for all my Iron Heart alterations and he couldn't believe how thick the whipcord fabric is.

yeah these things are the shit.  I love them and do agree that calling them Chinos is not exactly doing them justice.  such a great color and I can't wait for the grey as well.

But, calling them "work pants" does them a disservice… They need a stand-alone moniker, like the IH-707 "Weapon Trousers" have, lol

I just call 'm Whip-its…

Doubt the whipcord will take indigo that well and to be honest why would you want to? There are some duck 816's that would do better indigo dyed.

because i want indigo whipcord.

Then I guess you'd be best to try with the upcoming grey rather than these. Start with a lighter base. But I repeat, the tightness of the whipcord weave would make such an endeavour very challenging.

Maybe we can expect a navy version in the future (I hope so)

^ navy would be a logical choice for sure

[sabergirl]

I am still hoping for black! (I know, I'm a broken record, at this point.)

[Giles]

If the existing olive and brown and the upcoming grey sell well, then we will add navy and then black….....

My brown, back of taxi......

[Seul]

UPCOMING GREY!..

UPCOMING GREY!..

They're happening!.. I'm so happy

[Seul]

With The Piglet. Best pants in the world.

[youwinatlife]

thanks for the thoughts, all. upcoming possible maybe navy sounds perfect, but it also sounds like i need to buy an olive just to make it happen. on top of that, the organically grown marketing team of everyone posting photos with their OLVs is a force to be reckoned with.
