The correct choice is "its." The sentence should read: "The new and improved laundry detergent restored Hector’s mud-stained pants to its original condition."
In this context, "its" refers to the original condition of the pants as a singular item. If you were referring to multiple items, you might consider using "their," but in this case, "its" is appropriate.
