We're excited to introduce some old favourites that have been brought up to date - the Aquafell and Hydrofell chainsaw boots.
Featuring the high safety levels you've come to expect from Arbortec, the new designs are fully Class 2 chainsaw protection compliant, an increase over the old models - but with technological advances we've been able to reduce the number of protective layers.

The boots are available now from all Arbortec dealers - visit our dealer locator to find your nearest.
