IH-721-KHA - 9oz Mercerised Selvedge Cotton Slim Tapered Chinos - Khaki

So has anyone who have owned these for a bit experienced any stretch at all?
Just to follow up on this question you can get some stretch out of these. I have had the black pair for a while now and they came in a little bit larger in the waist at around 34.5" on my tag size 34. Since that's about my waist size anyways I didn't think I got any stretch out of that pair because there wasn't much to stretch so it gave me the impression that these didn't have any give to them.
I just picked up the Khaki pair from SE last week and the tag size 34 came in quite a bit smaller in the waist at 33.5". I almost thought they were going to be too tight but I wore them for one day and they have already stretched one inch in the waist. So yes, fortunately it does look like you can get some stretch out of these.

And again…great fucking pair of Chino's..the best actually. I can't give enough praise to the 721 cut and the mercerised fabrics that IH uses for their Chino's. Second to none.

Any chance this will get a run in army green? Love the khakis, but IH already has my blacks and blues covered with jeans, so greens would be a must buy.
C’mon guys you know you want to

Ah yes, you’re the man Giles!

Why are these one-washed but 717 are unwashed?
-
The first batch of these that we made were in a factory when a large typhoon hit the Okayama Province and the factory flooded, badly. We needed to wash these to remove the floodwater, and we decided that we preferred the look of one washed mercerised chino over that of the unwashed. It also makes sizing a lot simpler. If and when we remake the 717 we will probably one wash those too.

Thanks @Alex!

@Graham said in IH-721-KHA - 9oz Mercerised Selvedge Cotton Slim Tapered Chinos - Khaki:
@keenok You will want to size for comfort in these so I would measure what fits you well using our how we measure guide and factor in no stretch really to be had in this fabric.
Any idea of a restock in the near future??
