@AdamJ from my understanding, their black this year is actually black with no reddish brown cast. I need to get a khaki pair of slim fit this year. It’s the only colour I don’t have. Amazing pants!

[AdamJ]

@Chibs is there a new black colour being launched this year?!

[Chibs]

@AdamJ yep but my understanding is it’s not a new SKU. They’re just replacing the not really black models from before with actual black now. This could be good or bad depending on your point of view. I really liked the reddish / brownish black from last year so I’m glad I got the pants and fatigue shirt now. It’s an unusual colour and I dig it!

Edit: this is my source for the “updated black” timestamped (Skip to exactly 15 minutes in if timestamp link doesn’t work)

@AdamJ I hear this great brand "Iron Heart" is releasing black baker pants this spring/summer. May be worth a look

@Tago-Mago

Just get them all

[Brandrea]

@Tago-Mago I can’t wait to compare them.

[AdamJ]

@Tago-Mago never heard of it

[AdamJ]

@Chibs expecting to see an OrSlow review on your channel this summer

Same here

Im sure i could find a good use for the "true black " but glad i got the older style in case it doesnt make an appearance again

[GraemeE]

X-post these are the older style black

@Brandrea As discussed in the WRUW thread this morning, I needed to check these tiger camo pants as soon as I found them in stock at a local shop.
Upon initial inspection I noticed that they didn’t feel anything like my reverse sateen fatigue pants. Nnnnnope! Not near as soft. Looking closer I could see the square stitch pattern indicative of ripstop. They're still 100% cotton but not nearly as nice a hand feel as their reverse sateen. Bummed, I still tried them on. Gave a look in the mirror and then I was even more bummed because I had to buy them.

They’re just too fecking cool.. Whatever. The great thing about regular fit is they've got button fly instead of zipper. I like Orslow's military buttons.

Also tried on the IH Military western moleskin. It was so stiff! Assuming it loosens up after a bunch of wear but It felt restrictive in the arms, especially at the shoulders. Really nice shirt but I just left with the pants. I told the staff there's no way I was leaving without those pants. haha. 12 year old Chibs definitely approves but I expect a very low WAF.

@Chibs

Bravo

They looks so cool! I hope you enjoy them.

Blue Owl?

[Chibs]

@Brandrea Thanks! As you can tell an emotional attachment was formed as soon as I looked at them in the mirror. This was at Blue button shop. I think I may have got their last size 3.

Just found out it comes in a "Utility shirt?" WTF this has got to stop.
WANT!!!

@Chibs I’d get a high WAF on those, she loves camo!
