IH-731-KHA - 12oz Heavy Cotton Relaxed Fit Chinos - Khaki

[mclaincausey]

In @Filthy DIY spirit, a plastic card or something else that could withstand laundering could be stitched in to give some rigidity to solve that problem.

My preferred fix would be a CPO snap closure instead of the hook fastener.

EDIT: the first proposal may not work unless the hook were somehow affixed to the rigid insert, as I think about it

I think some reinforcement stitching through the khaki and the waistband liner around the clasp would do it.  But it might not be serious enough an issue to warrant any adjustments.  I’m sure those who know better than me are on the case.

My real question now is 12 vs 9.  I know I like the selvedge and I’m sure the fit on both will work.  I’m just torn on the material I guess.  I’d love to feel both.

No experience of either but I can’t resist biting on this:

@Matt:

Do we have a “This or That” thread?  If not I should start one.

Surely the answer is always both. 

In terms of the waistband, how easy would it be to add a French bearer (or something similar)? It might just need something to slightly reduce the tension on the hook fastener.

In @Filthy DIY spirit…

Yeah just get some scissors and cut it off

A this vs that on the Khakis would be nice indeed. I have the 730 iteration, but I am experiencing the same issues with the white fabric showing a little.

But I'd like to know the difference in the top block between the regular and the relaxed fit. My regulars seem to be a bit restricting in the front, which may be due to the fairly high rise, aka 888 top block? I'm thinking that maybe the wider thighs may offset to that, but I'm not entirely sure.

Damn these are good. My wife’s comment was “material looks thick but buttery, and they fit you so well.” Couldn’t have said it better myself. Thanks Graham and crew for perfect hem and great customer service.

Looks great!

[Chaintitch]

Is this cut going to stick?

[Alex]

Yep

[goosehd]

@Pipeboss713 They look really good on you! Great pickup

[Matt]

Nice. These are next on my list as well.

[Matt]

Or not. 33s are gone now.

[Matt]

But I think there are some new ones from JP on eBay.

[Dmart]

I love mine. Can be dressed up and down, depending on occasion!

[Matt]

I refuse to dress up these days.

[Kasi]

Yeah you rather be naked
