Basic chainsaw trousers for ground work

[Woodworks]

So what do you all wear?

 

I am torn between sticking with the cheap Oregan Yukon's and trying something more expensive and and hoping they last a long long time as the Yukons's do me a good few years of part time ground work.

If your only doin part time ground work and the yukons are lasting 2 years id say thats the best you'll get really so why change??

If your were full time ground work and could afford it id recommend pfanners but there gettin to such a stupid price now even i wouldnt conscider them.

Stihl do an economy trouser pretty cheap but ive no idea if theyre good or not.Stick with what you know

Longevity if your refering to the pfanners,but dont think some brands of expensive trousers will last longer than cheaper ones as it just not the case for some.

Arbortecs spring to mind as do stihl hiflex

I’m into my 3rd year with a pair of SIP progress. Very hard wearing and not right at the top end of prices.

I have a 5 year old pair of SIP which are great for groundwork and ringing up logs in the shed, heavy but good protection and warm at this time of year, bit sweaty in the summer though.

Thanks all

 

So Sip, Pfanner or stick with the Yukon's. Will pop into Abbey and see what they can do
