IH-721-NAV - 9oz Mercerised Selvedge Cotton Slim Tapered Chinos - Navy

[Guest]

How did these do? Asking because I’m curious if it’s something you look to do again (different colors etc).

I love mine, an improvement on the 717s for me (of which I own a couple of pairs).

Slow, but they'll sell.

@Alex Are you wearing a 33 in the navy and the khaki one? Thanks!

[Alex]

I have only tried the khaki and its 33 @Dion

@AdamJ just curious why the Navy is a limited restock?  Are these not selling as well as the khaki and black or is it just a matter of some other production issue?

[AdamJ]

@manufc10 Production issue, nothing to do with sales or popularity

Any kind of rough eta on the olive?

[Giles]

It'll be a few months I am afraid.  We have only just approved the colour…..Luckily, we do not have to weave the fabric, just get it dyed.....

[Matt]

That works, thank you.  Now I just have to figure out what to spend my bday money on.

I don’t suppose Japan has any of the olive whipcord 816s lying around…

[Giles]

Olive mandatory for a barber?

[Matt]

NM… I just discovered the cargo pants!

You know how it is when you get a wild hair up your butt about something meaninglessly specific.  I assume.  Maybe that’s just me.

The 816 version they did not sell, but we did the IH-720 in olive (effectively, the same pant), which they did stock.

One pair, size 40, one pair size 30 left…..

That's interesting and prompts two thoughts:

• I assume that will overdye the selvedge ID? Bet that'll look cool

• I assume this is not garment dying (which is interesting to think about for chinos and such)

Not yet a 30 and God willing won’t need a 40 any time soon.  Thank you for looking though @Giles

1. No.  We made a shit-ton of neutral coloured cotton chino fabric with polyester selvedge ID.  That allows us to relatively easily release different colour iterations whilst retaining the red/white selvedge ID (because, of course, polyester does not take up the dye).

2. It's not, we dye the rolls of fabric
