IHDR-502-OLV - 11oz Cotton Whipcord Cargo Pants - Olive

@SKT:
Let’s see if there is really “no stretch” in this whipcord. Fingers crossed no button popping occurs. Will report on efficacy.
I suppose I could just stop eating everything within reach but until then…hope this works.
Interested to see how this turned out. It’d determine whether I order or not, since I’m between the 32 and 33. Awesome stretching device you fashioned there!

@Entropy rider I tried but didn’t get any noticeable stretch using this “cowboy stretcher”. I think the stretcher would work on most denim but this whipcord is super tight. I would order up if you’re between sizes as I probably should have done.
I saw this device in another thread and it can be found on Amazon.

Good luck with your choice…these are awesome! I just need to get in shape to wear mine, which is a good incentive

Thanks for the tip. I might have pick one of those stretchers too, but obviously not for these pants. Appreciate you posting the attempt!

Those are really great looking — love the olive whipcord. I'd dig seeing a pair of the work pants in that color.
Adorable pup, too! It's really the cutest thing ever when they get all frisky in the cold.

Great pants but I’m admiring all of the chalk art in the background. And the pup too.
-
@Kirk Ill be sure to let the girls know! I have to keep them from doing the ground because the dog comes in covered in chalk so our solution was a rotating gallery of wall art. It’s typically seasonal.
@popvulture I had originally asked about work pants and G referred me to these which I had not previously seen. I def prefer these now that I have them. They are among my favorites.
-
Yeah I feel ya — I actually wouldn't mind a pair of these at all, but looks like the remaining sizes wouldn't work for me (I'd need a 34 since this stuff doesn't seem to stretch at all). I'll definitely be keeping my eyes out for more pants in this fabric in the future, though. Good lookin' shit.

@Matt That pic is great. You unknowingly sold me on these and while mine in a 33 are perfect themselves, my waist is stubborn and at the moment, a perfect 34. They are great pants and hopefully I’ll be wearing ‘em soon. @popvulture you need a pair.

@Matt
I should have been more clear in my post. Your sizing adventure was what got me aware of these awesome cargos in the first place. Mine are the second run too and the 33’s measure just a hair over 34” which should be perfect for me (as they were when I got them). But I’ve been eating some “parenting young kids through a pandemic” feelings and they’re just a bit snug now. I can wear them but the snugness and high(er) waist are not a great combo for me comfort-wise. Getting back into them is a little extra motivation to eat a little better. -
Ah I see. Might I suggest cocaine. Like barrels of cocaine. Just snowy white fields as far as the eye can see. The pounds will melt away. You will have sold these pants by then for more cocaine but no plan is full proof. On second thought, maybe go for a run. I like running.
