IH-729-PUR - Cotton Easy Shorts - Purple

[sabergirl]

Well, they have elastic and a drawstring.

IMO If you’re between sizes, go up! The top block and waist of my XL feels comparable to a 666 in my usual 38–aka tight. The fabric hasn’t stretched noticeably, and shrank (yikes) in the wash. I know my body type is different from most forumites, but just look at the fits on these pages and you can see that for many of us the east shorts are actually pretty form fitted in the thigh and cuff.

Thank you sabergirl. Here’s some pics of M and L

I still say large is the way to go! Medium looks a little more form-fitted, but I think that will be less comfy for movement and sitting, etc. I’m probably going to be the minority opinion.

Will this fabrik shrink with Gentle machine wash?

[Giles]

No - from the Size Guide.....

[Jan_L.]

Oh sorry.
Thank you G.

I had a chance to try on a large and medium last year and definitely agree for me going with the large was the way to go. Even with the larges, I notice they pull a bit when climbing stairs to where the mediums would be restricting somehow. Also, while the waist is very comfortable in larges, it's still a bit tight to don and doff. I'm not a big guy with thighs that fit comfortably in most 666 34s.

We have added a bullet to the details tab now, to make it more obvious

Snagged myself a Large when it popped into stock this morning. Hell yes. Wearing my Olive Easy Shorts right now.

@setandsetting pro move

[whacim]

I'm trying to order the XLs, but not succeeding. Please advise my dumb ass!

[sabergirl]

These have been sold out since 2023 and yet if you click the “now live” hyperlink in this thread it shows one XL in stock. Not sure what happened @whacim but it’s some kind of glitch.

[tody]

@Alex can you look into this?

[AdamJ]

@whacim Try again now please, sorry about that.

As @sabergirl pointed out, these were once "Extinct" but we got a few more pairs a while later. There was an incorrect setting in the product, so the "Add to Cart" button wasn't showing up!

[whacim]

Success! Thanks all!

@adamj No worries! I knew the 729-P's were an unlikely find. I was shocked to see them and even more shocked to see a pair in my size.

Since I'm usually not this lucky, is there a post in the forums where releases like this are announced?

[AdamJ]

@whacim when we restock a significant run, we announce it in the relevant product thread. As this was a one off pair we just put them online as usual

[Giles]

@whacim You can always complete the: "Tell me when back in stock form"

[whacim]

@Giles Thank you! The back in stock form is a fantastic feature that I use frequently. I didn't think to use it for an item I thought long extinct, but will be less restrained going forward.
