IHDR-502-OLV - 11oz Cotton Whipcord Cargo Pants - Olive
-
Well, they’ve arrived.
I told my other half that the only way I would keep them is if they were really special and fit exactly as I wanted.
To be completely honest, I imagined I’d be sending them back and because I’m a man I had already mentally spent the money I shouldn’t have spent on the trousers I shouldn’t have bought.They’re amazing. They are ridiculously well made (no surprise there), go with every boot I’ll wear them with and are waaaay comfier than I expected. I can even get away with a turn-up, which usually look weird on me for whatever reason.
Bravo.
Thanks for the extra stickers.

It was a good decision to size up. I would have never gotten into a size 34.
The fit is a little relaxed, like it should be with a cargo pants. It feels very robust and a little to warm for the current 20 degrees Celsius.
Just need to get them hemmed now.
Excuse the face. [emoji2957]

Agreed @Cole those look great. I really like how the pockets sit flat and show a slim thigh from both the front and back.

Everyone looks brilliant in these but the comments have me a little nervous. A waist over 36" would surely be too big for me, while a thigh of 13.2" should be fine, hence I ordered the w34. That should be a TTS choice for me and the w36 would represent a solid size up. We'll see….

@neph93 - I would say these are such a true 888 cut that you wearing a 34 will be fine.
PLUS, you said just this morning how you are a true masochist

That’s what the measurements looked like to me too. Good to hear. As for the masochism… I’m a newborn stretchy jean softy now [emoji51][emoji1]
@sabergirl I’m so pleased you got these. Perfect on you. And the colour of them on your pics makes me happy.

Don't worry, it's not the pants, I just grew fat. 34 will most likely fit you fine.

@neph93 I second what @Cole says. I got a 34W and also have big thighs and they've worked out great

@Cole lockdown running into summer is a bad combo. I put on 6kg by the middle of July. I found the key to losing it was letting my wife do the cooking. I barely ate for a month [emoji16]
You look great in those trousers regardless. Thanks to you and @den1mhead for the moral support.

@neph93 I originally got the 34 since all the measurements seemed to work and, while very snug in the waist, everything else was perfect so I could wear them. However, given the knowledge that these will NOT stretch and I wanted to be able to tuck in a shirt occasionally, I decided to go up to a 36 and asked for the smallest waist size. Will be a bit loose especially in the waist but that's what belts are for…
A 35 would have been spot on. -

A 35 would have been spot on.Good intel, and a good plan on your part. Thanks.
I do a W33 in 21oz 888 and they stretch to perfection. My XHS are W34 and the waist in them is now comfortable and I can tuck, after the shrink/stretch cycle is done. So these should be ok. They shipped today so we’ll see next week. Fingers crossed.
Btw… totally with you on the belt.

Just realised that I didn’t receive the patches with my trousers.
I don’t think I actually care, but I’ve typed it now.
-
I’m yet to take them off, btw. By far my favourite leg coverage.
-
@Streetwise Hercules glad you love the pants! Sorry that the patches were missed, we can either send them out to you separately, or keep them here to ship with a future order. Let me know which works best
-
Pah!
I’ll never buy anything from you ever again!!!Keep them until next time @AdamC

There where patches? What patches?
