I just got a pair last week, fit pics to follow

They're actually a lot darker than the pics would make you think

Giles…what is the weight of the IH-801 Cotton Ducks ? Are they 21 oz like the denim ? And I suppose they are sanforized ?

Mmmmmmmmm… I can't wait! Still need to decide on the the W33 or W32. Just reading everything I can find on the shrinkage/ stretching of the 801's and 802's. Just need to post fit picks with my RW's and White's.

As you know I have the IH800's ;D.  Same material - Tagsize 34x34 after some heavy wear and some heavy washing they measure 33x33

Oh really? So I have the W33 here. Are you saying that I should size up to a 34 on both the 801 and 802?

I would in the 801, you should be fine with the 802 in 33

[LandoCal126 0]

Okay, then. Put me down for a W34 in the 801!

I placed my order for my 801s yesterday, wahoo!  I'm a 35W so it's convenient that I had to size up to 36W.

I thought my wife was going to balk at the double knee feature but she is just excited that I'm going to be wearing something other than denim!  Hahaha

A word of advice to all you Cotton Duckers out there.  Definitely wash them inside out on a gentle wash and you'll get great contrast, if you wash hot and right-way-out you'll bleach the colour fairly quickly and you're liable to get unwanted fade-lines.

I should have some fit pics up shortly, if the weather ever clears up

[daveo]

Thanks for the tip, Giles.  Should I soak them before I wear them or is that not necessary?

Not necessary

[daveo]

Mine showed up today!  They should have been here on Monday but you know how the USPS works…

All of my worries about the rise were unfounded, they are just about perfect!  I am in the car on the way home to eat some turkey tomorrow but I might be able to get fit pics up thus weekend if I can figure out how to take them of myself.

Daveo I'm glad they fit well. I had a feeling you were going to dig them. Can't wait for some flicks and sure can't wait for mine either!!!

[LandoCal126 0]

Daveo and DougNg. I really would love to see some fit flicks of your two pairs. I would also like to see DZ's. Anyways, thanks in advance!

[DougNg]

I've been trying to get pics, but it's been raining every day that I'm available to take pics. I'm on top of it though…
