Does anyone have experience washing the handloomed faux fleece material? I’m hoping it will soften (loosen) up a bit, but I’m unsure about potential shrinkage issues.

I didn't notice much shrinkage with a cold wash and hang dry

@NickPollica any chance we'll see more Eide chinos in the future? It's my favorite casual pant pattern at the moment, and I'd love to have it in more fabrics.

I really like the look of the Eide’s but they the version I tried (Molloy wool) was way too tight in the seat, but fit well in the leg in my usual size. They’re probably my fav pant silhouette style-wise though

Yep soon.

I think the tweed ones made up a little smaller than the cords and seersucker, but maybe not that much. Too bad the seat didn't work.

Can't wait to wear my Eide cords again this fall. They pair well with the black/white checkered linen kurta and some tyrolean shoes.

Does anyone have a pair of the linen shelter shorts? I’m thinking about getting a pair in my usual true size rather than my usual 18E size up. The waist measurements look like they would work but I have bulky legs so I’m worried about not having enough room in the top block. This happened when I tried going TTS on a pair of the double knees.

I had pairs that were TTS and pairs I sized up on. Have thicker legs as well and ended up selling the TTS pairs cause they did not fit me as nicely as the size up pairs. Tighter in the seat and had to wear higher up on the waist. I preferred wearing the sized up pairs cause then I can wear them at my hips and avoid flashing the majority of my thighs everywhere I go.

Couldn’t agree more. Even 2 up is doable in this style. They are really comfortable and definitely worth picking a pair up if you like the style.
