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

[sabergirl]

Those look great! My favorite non-denim from IH by far. I too would love to find some black 714s in 36–hope we don’t have to fight it out, haha

I think we would - blsck seems to be very rare. Ive been begging for a rerun multiple times though (with a skightly more tapered leg).

I feel a bit like I’m bragging…but I snagged these. So stoked for colder weather

Pardon the shitty pics, they are right out of the bag pics...

Great stuff D. I’d love a pair of these or the 714’s again, although I’m pretty much set with my IH-718’s which are different but no less beautiful.

My favorite IH fabric made in to my favorite IH pants…

Enjoy!!!

Lookin' good, Dan!  I can't wait until it's cold enough for me to wear these, again.

Thanks guys! I was on the fence about sizing down to a 32, but the price was right and I figured if they didn't work, I could always find another happy home for them

They are a touch snug in the waist, but oddly enough, this material feels like it may have more stretch than my 714s. I like the more fitted look of these as sometimes cargos can be too baggy.

Now, I am debating on whether or not to hem my 714s into shorts…

[Max Power]

@Dstauffer My two Cents: The heavy fabric is not perfect for Shorts as you really sweat easily. also, the front pockets sit pretty low on these Pants. It worked perfectly in the light fabric cargo pants (704?) but not so great in the 23 oz fabric.

[Dstauffer]

Thanks Flo! I just realized I misspoke myself…its the 718s I'd turn into shorts...I agree, 23oz would be a bit heavy for shorts 

[Max Power]

Yes, that should work

crossover from the WAYWT thread…

Great pants.
It is a pity that they never came back…

[Max Power]

I wish they did come back in 12 Oz, beige, black and olive and with a slightly taper. I'd buy all of them.

[Max Power]

So, here are some old pictures. I'd like to ask advice, as the fit always has been pretty baggy: do you think hemming would improve the look, making them appear a bit more tailored on the leg?

[neph93]

@Max Power I'm not sure that would help with the perception of baggy-ness. It would give them a cleaner look and stop them breaking so much below the knee.

[Max Power]

Thanks @neph93

I'll see what I'll do. Still hoping for those 12oz 888 serge cargo pants to solve the problem.

Always a classic
