IH-715 - Swedish Serge Camp Shorts

[Stuart.T]

@Giles and @alex how come IH lacks a shorts option at the moment? The 715 would be a big seller surely. I'd snap up a 36 waist in the stated sizing any day..
Any future plans for Shorts? They are hard to find in any good quality brand. Cheers.

Because shorts require as much labour to make as a pair of long pants, the only saving is in the amount of material required.  We made the 715 because we had some serger surplus to requirements and space in the factory…

But you can 'chicken leg' any pair of our pants into shorts @Stuart.T

@Stuart.T Pro tip: The IH-816-WHI/BLK/IND are dying to be chicken legged…

[Alex]

I think the 814s are a nice one to chicken leg too

[rocket]

both very true

[neph93]

Shit, I meant the 814’s. But you all knew that [emoji1]

[rocket]

they 816 should, will, work too… Think Axel had a pair of the og navy ones chopped...

The backside cut of the 715 is special and makes the difference.

@neph93 @Alex @Giles thanks for the helpful info. I'm a cargo or carpenter pants fan, and my size is out in most doable 'chicken legable' trousers. It's good to know that sort of alteration is possible in-house. Thanks.

My former black ones after a really rough wash in the hotel washing machine. I'm not really happy with their washed out look.

[neph93]

I think they look fantastic and would be very happy personally (if I wore shorts [emoji1]). But I understand that they are to your personal preferences. A couple of rounds with black fabric dye should do the trick.

I think they look cool

and since they are blk, you still could easy overdye em later, I guess

This fading seems to be one of the characteristics of The Swedish Serge @Max Power ….

Agreed–my khaki pants exhibit early fades and I love it--I think @Max Power shorts look great.

[Haddtoo 555]

Mine are straight up grey after 3 or 4 washes…I still like'm

You meant shorts rigjt? Boy, i hope there will be enough and a lit of colours. The weight and cut of the 715 makes them so great. A true black, olive and khaki would be great. Even camo would work here.

I vote for pants, can always chicken leg em
