It's hard to convey colour through a screen, as so much can change with lighting when the picture was taken, the screen's quality and settings, etc, but I'll do my best.
So I have the Khaki version. I will say that the colour in person is more vibrant than appears on my screen when I'm looking at the photographs that the Crew took. But the colour can play tricks on you and it depends what you put it up against.
Here I have photographed it next to my 888 Ducks for reference to something you might already have, and the 735-KHA. The photo was taken under mid-strength sunlight coming through a window.
You can see that the colour is closer to the 735-KHA than the duck-brown, but it's definitely more vibrant than the 735-KHA, but not on the level of the ducks.
As for the sheen, it's subtle when viewed from a distance, see the image in my WAYWT picture above for what it looks like in an indoor, artificial lighting setting, but is more prominent in sunlight. See below for a macro taken under the aforementioned mid-strength sunlight.
So its not like the new bomber jacket, where the tight nylon really catches the sunlight (IMO). The space between the 'cords' on these mutes the overall sheen somewhat. And you can see from the area in shadow that the sheen isn't there under all lighting conditions.
I haven't washed these, so cannot speak to whether that mutes the sheen effect just yet.
Hope that helps, but let me know if you want to see these up against any other fabrics and I'll see what I can do from what I have available.

@EdH Once again, thank you so much for your detailed reply!!! To my eyes, your pants look like a proper khaki colour and I think they look great. I was checking out the Division Road website and their pictures show a different hue of colours. Their khaki pictures almost look like the duck colouring and their ODG have more of a dark brownish (olive?) hue than green. I’m contemplating between the ODG and the 738’s in army green, so I have a few more days to overthink this before the 738’s drop.

@EdH you wore these in Gosport right? If so the sheen of them did catch my eye, I meant to ask you what it was you were wearing as they really stood out to me.
-
@T4920 That's correct (the Khaki colourway).
@Tago-Mago @goosehd you might want to move the discussion above of the 'sheen' on the khaki colourway to the correct thread. As the Q was asked here I answered it here, but appreciate it's possibly getting confusing.

Just discovering that these exist and would love a 36 but the conversion on Division Road vs IHUK website is painful for Canadians
-
We have 4x Tag 35's in stock, you wanna see if any of them are bigger in the waist / thigh?
-
@Graham sure! That would be awesome. I'm 36 in 777 with room in the thigh so really just waist

@Graham thanks so much!

Thank @Graham and team for the quick turn around, they fit great! Picture with the A2

@Streetwise-Hercules there are no plans atm. Down to Division Road if they want to do another run

Not what I was hoping to hear, but thanks Alex.
