IH-816 - 17oz Duck Work Pants

@Jordonf9:

Thanks. After looking at the 711 again it is a perfect cut for me. 36 is nice except would be better with 1" less in waist.

This duck stretch much?

And it can shrink it want it to

If I recall correctly in the 711 thread, you can expect 1 inch Shrink in the waist too

Forgot the 711 was a chino. I love duck canvas, not so much chino.

why not opt for the 666-D?  They sound like what you might be after

[Jordonf9]

All 666 are too thin for my thighs. I need at least 13.4" to be comfy with a 34.5"-36" waist….but I just looked and tag 38 isn't TOO far off....hmmmmmmmm

Is it correct that all colours of the 816 are reactive dyed and won't fade? Side note: and the 707 will fade?

[Giles]

No, the brown will fade…..Not sure what happens to the 707.....

[FurattoHeddo]

The beige will fade too in high friction areas…

[rocket]

the blue ones as well, or maybe they are just dirty 

[Dion]

Thanks, gentlemen!

[gratefulmelon]

My beige pair faded all over after multiple washes. High friction areas are more pronounced.

[Haddtoo 555]

Thanks guys ….. now we know.

[Dion]

Any news on the final restock?

[Giles]

Browns a few months away
Nave and beige scheduled for late May

Almost 3 years old now, worn once or twice a week

The 816s are my favourite non denim bottoms of all times - a (relatively) hidden jewel of the IH line-up IMO

Just got mine a couple days ago … Glad to scoff up a pair before the khaki goes bye bye ...

My feelings and experience exactly re the beige [emoji1303]

[Haddtoo 555]

@zatenm how often do you wash them?

[zatenm]

@Haddtoo 555 quite infrequently, maybe 3 times a year
