@Giles:

I've asked that all futur Loggers come in a min of 35.  G

when will the 35' inseam version start coming in?

[Giles]

Next run.  And no I do not know when that is happening.  I just have a commitment from Haraki that when he initiates a new run of any of the Loggers they will be done at 35…....

The reason why i'm asking about the IH catalogue in my last order because i get a lot of questions from my colleague about the work gear i'm wearing. I really tested the construction of this duck.. and it pass with flying colours.. Thanks  for the kind words guys!

Hey guys, I'm reading conflicting opinions, and I'm sure it's not the end of the world either way, but should I size up from my 634S fit or get the same size?  My 634S were tight when they arrived, but fit perfectly now (don't need a belt).  Some say get the same size, I believe Giles said to size up…confused!

Thx!

[Seul]

Size up one, aka go true to size. I wear 31 in 634s (which stretches to 32), and 32 in 801. The 801s do NOT stretch so don't count on it…

[zhivago]

Size em up bud! No stretch whatsoever on these bad boys.

[Paul9221]

Yeah, I ended up sizing up about two sizes.  Well, actually three from the 634S.  Waist is about 35", so I got a size 36.

Have you guys washed them at all?  I read what G wrote, about not washing them right-side-out and with hot water or you might get some weird fade lines.  So does that mean that we should wash them inside-out and in cold water?  And are we talking wash or soak?

[mankarat]

For initial wash (first 2 or 3 washes), it is better to spin as low as possible (500-700rpm) in a 30-40 deg cel in a delicate cycles.. After that, its ok for a normal cycle but i doubt you ever really need to wash this in normal cycle unless you really use this for a truly work pants.
As for the inside out wash regime.. it is advisable to do so in a lifetime of a pants to minimize the colour loss and to get a nice even fade on the duck cotton.. This pants is really nice and comfortable to wear one size up unless you prefer a tight fit. But to use it for a workpants, extra room are priorities.. So size on up looks like a good choice..
Hope this helps…

Hey Mank, thanks for the reply.

30-40C is warmer than I expected.  So do wash them inside-out in warm water then?

Sorry, but when you say "initial wash" do you mean before wearing them?  I.e. is it a good idea to wash these right away?  Or do you mean when you eventually do wash them, some months down the line?

Thx
