IH-707 - Mercerised Cotton Chino Pants

[mclaincausey]

I'll go ahead and insert my standard "can it be done in indigo?" Request.

[tmg]

Where in the colour spectrum does indigo sit, in relation to navy blue? Slightly lighter?

[Giles]

Depends now many dips we give it…......

[joesaintjohn]

Gray or black would be pretty awesome too. I love these pants.

[Mumbles]

these do not get enough love imo….great pair of chinos.  any chance at an olive pair G?

[superfuzz]

G, any chance of getting these in a 28?

[Giles]

None in Japan, so I reckon we do not go down to 28 in them I am afraid…

[superfuzz]

Thanks for checking, G!

@derivative666:

@tmg I took mine threw them right away in the washing machine on hot and put them in a hot dryer.

Site says 1" waist and 1" length. Did you notice anymore shrinkage in those two measurements or anywhere else for that matter?

[Giles]

Restocked

Is Haraki still making the military chinos mentioned on the previous page? If so, how would they differ from these?

[Giles]

He will if I ask him…..Let me check.

Waist band is part of the trouser rather than a separate piece, slash pockets which go up into the waist band, coin pocket......

[Giles]

Just spoke to H.  We have to sample again…...

Size 32 in these looks quite similar to beetle busters in size 34… If I were to get these should I size down two from my busters?
(I’m being told I wear jeans too much! )

[Giles]

I would go the same size

[4c]

Thanks Giles
(I have to admit I’m still a little unsure about going from 33 BB waist to 35 chino post soak waist though.
Could I get more than 1 inch out of these if the need arose?

[Giles]

An inch of what?  Shrinkage or stretch?

And BTW,  I wear the same size (33) in IH-634S, IHXB01 and IH-707….

[Anesthetist]

I'm looking at these as well (Sz 33) and the waist size is a little daunting as compared to the rest of the pants in my collection. I'm thinking this is the same concern that 4C is sharing.

Anesthetist has it.
I currently wear 33 inch waist which is size 34 in BBs.
size 34 Chino is 36 inches (3 inches more than my BBs), but the site says it shrinks an inch which is still 35 inches (2 inches more than my BBs). I’m unsure if I could do 35 inches. I was wondering if maybe the chinos shrink more than the inch of shrinkage it says on the website or if there is some other consideration that would make 35 inches work?

BTW: some people go to church on a Sunday or take a day off; I very much appreciate your help and devotion to your endeavor Mr. G-san

[Giles]

I need to retake the photos on the site, so I'll see how they feel compared to busters later today…
