IH-829-BLK - 21oz Serge Work Pants - Black

[Mizmazzle]

Hot damn. Sure hope these get a rerun. Gonna need a pair of these beauties.

@Mizmazzle I don't know what size you are, but they're still floating around at some retailers like Self Edge!

[Mizmazzle]

@freepickin are you trying to cause a divorce for me!!? Haha.
I just got some XHSib so I will be content for the time being. But I love the work pants cut. So comfortable.

But just for the sake of science…do you find this 21oz serge to stretch similar to denim?

[yannis]

@Mizmazzle it stretches similar to the 21oz. I have the indigo version of them.

[freepickin]

@Mizmazzle it seems remarkably similar to the 21oz, and yes I would say it does stretch like the 21oz, mine has also shrunk a bit as well too. I think I've lost about .75-1" in the inseam but I'm also a bit laissez-faire with my washing parameters

I am not a big fader.. but I can confirm that these fade like no tomorrow from day one! Will pull them out once back and if I get myself out of the 21oz bibs....

[FlavourFade]

@freepickin how about breathability? Also similar to 21 oz or less?

[yannis]

@FlavourFade. Ii feels very similar to the 21oz to me in every regard.

[freepickin]

@GoodtimeJohnny hell yeah! these are looking awesome!

[freepickin]

@FlavourFade sorry for the late response, yes seems very similar to the 21oz in terms of breathability

@GoodtimeJohnny your posts inspired me to grab a pair for work!

[GoodtimeJohnny]

@GTPowers Best work pants by far, and they absolutely drip black off!

[freepickin]

Bought a identical sibling pair of indigo ones. Thinking I might do the next year's indigo invitational in them.

[FlavourFade]

Finally found a pair in my size 829-blk! Took the retailer over two weeks to get them hemmed+shipped what's kind of a bummer but now they are here. +1 for mainly buying at UK/hamburg crew. Probably going to break them in when it gets to hot for the xhsib. Did you guys soak them before wearing?

[FlavourFade]

@freepickin you HAVE to give the ind pair the freepickin treatment!! Btw what's the jacket in the picture?

[freepickin]

@FlavourFade haha I plan on giving it hell! The jacket is a IHJ-82-IND that I thrifted my buddy works at a consignment shop and he let me know about it as soon as it showed up. Helps to have the buddy hookup!

I gave mine a hot soak when I first got it and got a bit of shrink out of it. I don't have any exact measurements though. Up to you!

[FlavourFade]

@freepickin okay thanks, maybe I'll give it a good ol' soak before wearing it first time.

That jacket's a grail!!!

[FlavourFade]

First wear of my 829. Loooove that fabric and the cut is very comfortable. But will have them hemmed some more probably and do a hot soak.

[GoodtimeJohnny]

@FlavourFade Lookin good! I only washed mine after the first 60+ wears no pre soak, still my favorite pants I've ever bought!
