IH-801 Cotton Duck Double Knee Loggers

No need to wash when you get 'm… Just get 'm true to size and wear them hard... Wash when dirty... Shrinkage is minimal in the waist...

That is what i normally do.. Wash in a delicate cycle (machine wash) at 30-40 deg.. Off course you can wash them at cold cycles without any harm..
What i mean about the initial wash is after you wear it at some points, maybe first wash after 6 months.. And 2nd wash on the following month.. You need to be careful on those wash.. After that initial period you can wash them in Normal cycles.. but i doubt you ever really need to wash it in that cycles..
You can wear it straight away.. No real need to wash or soak this..

That's what I'm talking about…......

+1…how you sized these compared to your 634's?

@Finn666:

I got the 634S in a size 33, the 801s in a 36.  My waist is 34.75" around.

In hindsight, I got REALLY lucky that the size 33 fit me as well as it did, or does, seeing as how I did the dumb thing of ordering IH pants based on some gap jeans I had instead of actually measuring my waist.

@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?

I am going to do the same thing when G gets in restock on the brown 36… plus the restock might have the the 35 inseam..

[Paul9221]

They're really great.  They're a bit harder to match with shirts, color-wise, than jeans, but I've found a few go-tos.  And they're very comfortable.

It's also nice to be able to just unzip at the urinal instead of unbuttoning

[Giles]

Next run (whenever that is)…...

[Max Power]

Hopefully soon. Thanks!

I think it is about time for the first wash of my 801's. It has only been about two weeks of wear but in that time they have accumulated the following (in order received): mud, coffee, charcoal (campfire), oil, manure (cattle), blood, beer (Mt. Carmel Harvest Ale), tree sap.
