IH-730-KHA - 12oz Heavy Cotton Regular Fit Chinos - Khaki

That is correct. Wasit will not budge in terms of stretch. Have not washed mine yet but no shrinkage to be expected. I am usually a tag 34/35 in denim but went for a 36 in these. Best to go a little more loose and be comfortable.

I love mine!:

Thanks @Graham
I will try to get a pair in Hamburg on Monday.

@Dmart I'm with @Graham on this one. Go loose!
I recently gave away my 36 in exchange for a more loose 38.
With this particular model, you have to take the hook closure into consideration, which creates a nasty pull on the inner (white) fabric.

Got a pair. Actually felt better in the slimmer one which is by no means tight.

Bought a pair of these to wear to a wedding. I hate buying regular “wedding” clothes as I never end up wearing them again, so that factors into my decision making and I end up buying something cheap that I loathe. If I ratchet up the price to something that I actually like then I end up seeing it as a waste since I won’t wear it very often, if at all. At least these will get loads of wear over coming years. I know they ain’t strictly formal, but hey it’s a buddy’s wedding and he won’t give two shits what I’m wearing.

@Bailey kindly set aside a 34 with the largest waist and thigh measurements. They came out very close to an 888 fit, and I’m supper happy with them

The fabric has been described as soft and buttery in the 731 thread, which I’d agree with. It has an amazing hand feel, but there’s enough rigidity in the fabric to get some nice creases and feel rugged. All in all, an amazingly versatile pair of pants.

Quickly tried on with the wedding outfit

Really surprised with how well they work. In an ideal world for the wedding outfit they’d be hemmed to perfection, but I love a turn-up for regular wear.

@jerkules nice one mate, spot on

I wore the IH-721-KHA to @AdamC wedding a few years back and wore them to Lords with a similar colour blazer to yours, it works well!

Bailey

@jerkules my pleasure mate, they look spot on!

Dmart

Excellent fit. Mine are out for hemming at the moment.

Thanks guys, look forward to seeing yours @Dmart

@AdamJ nice, it's good to have an IH pair that can tick multiple boxes!

Sorry in advance of this is a stupid question. The pocket flasher that come with these chinos say to wear them as long as possible before wearing. Is there any reason for this? I normally only see this instruction on items with fading potential, which I would’ve assumed this material lacks.
