    As I’m actually more like a 36” waist, is it best to go with a 35” and allow for some stretch? Don’t want them to fit and then with wear be hanging too low.

      From what I know for IH chinos, I don't think they stretch much… maybe half an inch at most? but then they will shrink back up when you wash/dry.  For me I would go with your true size.

      ISO: IHSH-170 or IHSH-193 in size XXL

        Maybe so. Maybe not

          I finally pulled the trigger on these as my beloved 707 needed to be replaced and what can I say? They're exactly what I was looking for, namely a slimmed down version of the former. Don't sleep on them, people! Oh, and now I am really hoping for an olive version somewhere in the future.

            I am also happy these are sold out already. Can this mean there will be more colour options in the future? This cut is golden BTW.

                Nice shots @Dion . 😎

                I have been umming and erring about these and predictably, mine is the only size that's newly out of stock. 😞

                Now eyeing the navy version… They should be about equally versatile, right?

                  Cheers! I also just noticed the khaki version moved to being in continuous production so you'll be good to go after a restock whereas the navy one is still ''endangered''.

                      I don't suppose restocks are imminent, since both are in sufficient supply in most sizes?

                        Afraid not, we have to dye the fabric….

                          Happy to report these didn't shrink at all when soaked in cold water and washed at 30° C with low spin thereafter. The material tightened up but relaxed to its previous state quickly after some wear. I am very happy because they are already perfect in length (and everywhere else) and there is no room for shrinkage for me. Also looking forward to the olive iteration and hoping I can snag it as well. The 721 cut is golden and they are brilliant trousers overall. Don't sleep on them, people!

                              I'm considering getting these pants and as usual I have sizing questions:

                              1. I'm on Tag size 31 on my IH 666S-21 and when compared against this, I should go with Tag size 32. Is that correct?

                              2. I've read from other messages in this thread that this pant will not shrink. I will primarily use it for office which means it will see the wash cycle more often. I have had other chino pants and they have considerably shrunk after several washer over a period of 6 months. How about this one? Will the size stay the same say after a couple of years with say 365 washes?

                              3. Will there be an olive version of this soon?

                              IH-555N | IH-666S-21 | IH-777D | IH-666 XHS | IHG-035 | IHB-06 | IH-721-KHA
                              IHSH-251 | IHSH-07 | IHSH-246 * 2

                                I imagine your 666S-21 would have stretched since you first bought them so I'd always advise giving them a measure to be sure of your current "actual" waist size.

                                The fabric has already been one-washed so little to no shrinkage to be expected. I have the sample pair and they've not shrunk (that I've noticed) after several machine washes.

                                AFAIK no plans for the 721-OLV at the moment.

                                🙂

                                The devil is in the detail..

                                  I just measured the IH 666S-21 and they stand around 85.5 cm on the waist as against the original size of 82.3 when new. They are a snug fit for me now. So going with this, my question would be should I get this in Tag size 32 assuming that they will stretch the same in the waist like the 666S-21?

                                    @jothishan Unless you need input from other forum members, it is best to ask this sort of question at shop@ironheart.co.uk, then the answer can be handled by the customer service team….

                                      Received this today! There is a massive feel to the quality of this material. I have purchased several Chinos in the past over the years and this one feels worlds apart from the rest! The fit is top notch and this is a perfect office wear for my tastes. Hope this fabric lasts long for the price point!

                                        @jothishan I couldn’t agree more. My first experience is similar to yours. I absolutely love these chinos. Best fitting pair I’ve ever owned hands down.  Having never felt or seen in person it felt like a bit of a dice roll when I bought but so happy I did.

                                          So has anyone who have owned these for a bit experienced any stretch at all?
