Lots of stuff is sulphur dyed. The Boss seems to use that technique on serge a lot. I don’t know if the duck is for sure, but it wouldn’t surprise me if it was. It certainly evo’s like sulphur dyed gear, but doesn’t smell like it.

@Mizmazzle:

Is duck a sulphur died material?

Duck is just another term for canvas, it can be dyed in various ways

[Mizmazzle]

The reason I ask is I’ve got my ducks pretty dirty. I did a gentle wash and it didn’t get all the dirt out. Then I tried a cold wash on the washing machines “normal” setting. Still some dirt on the thighs and around the leg opening. I guess I’ll try a warm wash next. Haha. I’m not sure the hottest setting I should go without risking some shrinkage. I’m line drying

[Mizmazzle]

I’m wondering if I need to scrub the fabric to get the dirt/ stains out of there will be some lightening of the fabric.

[Giles]

If they are dirty and you want them clean, scrub them.  That's what I do…..

[Mizmazzle]

Haha. Ultimately that’s what I did. Didn’t hurt them at all. Not sure when I’ll learn that “built to last” means they can handle a beating….why would the cleaning part be any different?

X Post from WAYWT. I love to pair the ducks with denim shirts - a Samurai Western in this case.

Todays Duck combo. This fabric surprises me with its versatility!

Any plan for a restock in 31 ? My size is one of the only to be out of stock.

Probably be a while.

So, i finally decided to give try to the size 32 even if I first tough a 31 would fit better and i'm glad I did it ! I received my order today and the fit is really good. It's a bit loose at my back on the waist owever it's perfect at the thighs and i fear a 31 would have been too tight. Especially as duck canvas does not strech as much as a denim.

I'm pretty happy with my first IH pants. 

What do you think ?

[Oaktavia]

Too tight would be annoying for you to wear and bothersome for your legs to endure. It looks like you nailed it.

[Nik]

Yeah that looks right. The room at the back of the waist will relax as the fabric takes your body shape.

Lost 10kg since the summer. My old tag 35 were fitting like this, and were a roomy 36inches at the waist:

With the amount of fabric I could pinch at the waistband I thought I could just about go down to a tag 33. That just arrived:

A bit tighter all over, obviously, but with the small amount of stretch I can expect (the tag 35 started at an actual 35.6, so I got about a half inch out of those) and with the goal of losing another few kg (my goal is ~3kg away) I think these are a winner.

@EdH outstanding accomplishment and the fit is perfect!
