IH-716 - Grey 10oz Chino Cloth Chinos
-
Copped a pair of 36 hemmed to 34.5"
-
Sadly Sam measure the 36 and they are 37" waist
Oh well
-
@Jordonf9 - I heard a lot of people got a good amount of shrink out of the 711 chino, and my 707 shrink everytime I wash+dry. Might be work giving them a shot! The good thing about chinos, is that a local tailor can very easily take in the waist and seat for you.
-
Well, I couldn't let these go. So I re-ordered but without hem. Worst comes to worst, a return will be in order. Can't wait!
-
Will this stretch a bit? I am between sizes 36-38 per the waist measurement. Don't know which will work best. Any experienced voices.
-
Sam sent me measurements of 37" on the 36 on the two pair he had last time. If that helps.
-
That does. Thanks jordan!

@HeavyGenes I will have my pair tomorrow. I normally wear 36 sometimes 34 in IH denim…I can measure them for you if that helps, if you already didn't snag a pair. I can wear down to a 34.5" waist up to 36" normally. With 37", will be a little big, but they are comfy and not rigged so I figure when the belt is strapped down they won't hurt.
I will also try a very hot soak to see what shrinkage I could get. Got a pair of 36 inbound. -
@Jordonf9 I saw only 1 36 left so I had to jump on it. I'm praying it'll work. But thanks for offering to measure. The chinos look great. I want the shirt too but will have to wait for my employer to refill my disposable income. Hope you post some fit pics.

Oh yeah and maybe a silly question, but do IH belts fit this chino?

I would personally wear any leather except veg tanned belt with these. I only wear one belt though, which started out as a whiskey brown, now is darker.
A cordovan or burgundy would look epic with these.

I've worn mine about 6-8 times now, with veg tanned, dark brown, color 8 and black belts. All look great, but especially the dark brown. That belt, and my beeswax Clark's Desert Trek paired with these chinos is an amazing combo
-
Love these. Comfy, light, now I need to get them hemmed.
Have to get measurements tomorrow, my ulcer flared up this morning and didn't feel like doing crap till the past few hours, which I am working.
-
These are probably my favorite chinos from IH, the fit is spot for a comfortable but trim look that's not skin tight. The fabric wears in quickly and becomes super soft. Perfect chino for work in a causal environment or out to play.
Here to hope that more chinos will be made in this fit!

I really need to send these out to get hemmed…I feel so bad not wearing them at all....such beautiful fabric and cut.
