        I washed mine at 40deg on 800rpm and didn’t get any shrinkage, in case that helps.

        Wearing them today, actually.
        I’m a true 90cm waist with rather large thighs and the L is a snug fit for me, without being too tight. 👌🏽

        Use it or lose it.

          They look great Emil. I’m a 87cm waist and size L is borderline too large for me. I like the legs and everything but the waist in a size M would definitely be better for me. The Khaki ones will be M.

              Nice fit @weftyarn

              Another day, another wear. 
              Returned my size L and happy with M. They’ve loosened up quite a bit too. For reference, my ih denim typically has a waist measurement of 33-34”

              we’re trying our best

                Decided to keep them, and gave them a 60C wash and 30 minutes in the dryer. They feel basically the same - just a little shorter in the inseam. They're definitely wearable, but a still a bit too big. I love that these are very easy wearing, relaxed and at the same time the pockets are fully functional and the fabric substantial enough. The back pockets easily hold your phone.

                IH never made shorts for skinny dudes, so it was a bit of a gamble. Seeing as they're very popular, hoping that will change for SS23 🙂

                  They fit indeed better! Try to make some shots in the next days.

                      That’s a nice fit on yours too, @Kirk 👌🏽

                      Great to hear the M works well for you, @Dmart 👍🏽

                      These shorts have quickly become a favorite for me -
                      As easy as possible, as serious as necessary. Just right!

                          That’s the fit in size M.

                                Do these work as PJs or are they still a touch “outdoorsy” to wear in bed?

                                  Wouldn’t be my first choice but yes, you could wear them to bed.

                                    I think they’re similar to other regular weight elastic waist shorts.  I don’t know that these would be considered “heavy” or “over engineered” like other IH items and they don’t really need any fading or break in so if you sleep in “normal” cotton shorts that’s fine.  If you sleep in light and breathable pajamas I’d say no.

                                        Awesome, @Matt

                                        Wouldn’t wear them to bed neither (maybe in winter…),
                                        but being able to wear these to the office is a blessing 👍🏽

                                        Use it or lose it.

                                          They look great.  Shorts at the barbershop is frowned upon  😞

                                            Got myself a pair of these to lounge around the house but they're so awesome I'm definitely also going to be lounging around town in them. These are a real winner from IH!
