If this wabash is same weave as the old stuff, it stretches. I'm a 35 waist and I'd get a 34 in these. The measurements are a little different than the 811, check the sizing.  Awesome fabric, awesome pants.

[MikeC]

Did anyone get these?  I'd really like to see some fit pics. The new wabash looks like it falls different than the old wabash. Check out Giles' fit pics on the product site.

Function of length, these have a bit more in the inseam…

Hoping to have these chopped early next week

I just bought a pair and am hoping to fade them quite a bit before wearing them

any suggestions on best ways to do this? warm water wash and air dry?

Giles, any faded pics of these available or are they too new? esp. compared to the older 811's

[Giles]

Lots of gentle wases, first couple inside out, then right side, check out progress between each wash. No faded pics that I know of.  This tho, is the same wabash….

[Giles]

I know…....

@NorCal_1:

Thx Giles (I was the one who bought that last pair of 33's)

I know and thanks.  You see, I can see your email address on here, so I put 2 and 2 together…...

NorCal_1 I've kept this pic of a pair of IH-811 that were given an extreme hard wash or call it predistressed even, not the same wabash as the 814 but still …

[NorCal_1]

^ a little less distressed than that,,,,that's the goal!

[NorCal_1]

ordered them Monday, received in California from the UK on Wednesday - so impressed 

perfect fit, great quality, in love

p.s. I wonder if anyone who liked the 811's more antique finish from the brown overdye would consider tea-dyeing

if anyone has any spare scraps of wabash fabric kicking around, it might be interesting to see what would happen to them tea-dyed.  Maybe a step too far, but interesting to consider

Let's see those chopped 814s derivative666!!!

Lol I knew that was coming. I am actually having my left over material made into shorts for my 4 year old. My taylor is putting together a pattern hopefully there is enough material.

[NorCal_1]

slightly OT - I started a thread in the General Chat section to drum up interest for IH to produce BROWN Wabash for use in vests, pants and shirts, etc

nobody does it, but it could be great looking and a coup for IH to be one of the first

here it is, so show your support if you like the idea:

Any updates for us d?

[derivative666]

^haven't done anything yet still trying to figure it out.

I will say the 814's absolutely make awesome shorts.

I've been trying to decide on these or finding some 2nd hand ducks to chop

[derivative666]

You can't go wrong with the 814's just upsize one. I'm also going to chop a pair of the new brown cotton work pants when the come out.

[bagley920]

Upsize? Why? How much do they shrink?
