      I would definitely be happier with IH cargoes if they had a taper.

      i'm not a cargo pants guy but would definitely consider a pair if they had a taper. the pics @Cole posted look bell-bottomish

        I’m not a default traditionalist and in fact I quite like it when people cleverly subvert classic designs, but cargoes are so not meant to be tapered.

          But why? You can still fit boots under an 8.5” hem.

              when I look at the IH-718 the hem on a size 33 comes to 8.9. I'm about as average sized as they get but an 8.9 hem on my frame would be huge. An 8" or 8.5" hem would look more appropriate – it's still relaxed but the taper isn't overly aggressive.

                I'm a +1 with Reuben.

                While I can appreciate differing preferences, I respectfully disagree. But its all a matter of opinion…

                  This is what i meant. I dont want a heavily tapered pair, but the old models swamped me. Almost 10" leg opening on a 36 is too much and is also prone to damage as the hems rub against each other. I think a bit slimmer cut throughout the whole leg would do the trick.

                    How about some friction belts? Design or find some removable, over-engineered hardware and sell a series of denim straps to go with it (IND, IND wabash, BLK wabash, etc).

                      ^^that is a great suggestion! Let's try out a few friction belts.

                        I like this idea. Sashiko would be cool too.

                          I am so in for some tapered cargos. But as most people say they don’t have to be super tapered just something that makes them wearable with sneakers and boots.

                              IH could even make them with a drawstring in the hem like the recent Stevenson Overall Recon fatigue cargos.

                                What about making some cargos based on the 888 cut?

                                      tiger camo would look cool. how stiff is whipcord? And would that lend itself very well to cargos?

                                        I was thinking just a "normal" camo pattern but a tiger camo whipcord fabric would definitely be cool as well.  IMO whipcord would work great for cargo pants.

                                          camo would look cool but I suspect the number of people here that would wear them is small. I think olive would be a good start since it's a traditional color with military garb

                                            I would go with olive or brown whipcord, 888 cut, cargo’s. Best of all worlds combined  😎
