The mythical female chainsaw boots....

[Leanne]

So I have been lucky enough to get some work experience with a Tree surgeon company.  Only downside is due to having small feet and being a short arse I do need to get my own boots and trousers

 

Do size 5 chainsaw boots actually exist, without costing the earth? (i'm very broke and also trying to safe to do my chain saw course too)

Thankfully screwfix do do short legged chainsaw trousers woot!

 

Any advice?

Haix do from 4 upwards according to their site.

Spotted Haix from size 38 (not sure what that is in real size but 43 is a 9) https://www.frjonesandson.co.uk/products/haix-protector-forest-chainsaw-boots-class-2/

 

Rockfall manufacture their own, got a pair of their Chatsworth last year which were good but showed signs of wear early when climbing (rand peeling from leather). This year's model is advertised as 'electrical boot' rather than chainsaw and may not be available til September. Unfortunately they only go from size 6 so you would need to call them and ask if they could do a 5. https://www.frjonesandson.co.uk/products/haix-protector-forest-chainsaw-boots-class-2/

Worth trying them on if you're near a retailer. Good luck

My girlfriend did her chainsaw course last week and had size 5 haix boots, she reckoned they were lovely and comfortable, not cheap tho

I found a few for size 6, which even though too big are a class 2 and cheaper than the size 5.  I'm thinking very fluffy socks.

 

Thank you everyone for the links

I am not sure that fluffy socks really give Class 1 protection, I think you will have to get some chainsaw boots.  Correct me if I am wrong of course.
