You don't always get what you pay for when buying expensive.  I have had cheap trousers last a couple of years, whereas my steins lasted barely 6 months.

I agree. I’ve got cheap Husqvarna Classic As and cheap Oregon Yukon Cs. All the expensive ones I see people wearing are hanging off them. Mine are still in good nick.

I have a pair of Yukons, they are surprisingly good for the money.

 

I remember when I first started you would do well to even find a pair of trousers over £100.  Prices have rocketed for the top of the range ones.  Justifiably, who knows

are there any trousers that are type A but offer allround protection from say just under the knee down?

thanks carl

They certainly existed once upon a time.  Not seen them lately though, and can't remember how they were classified.  maybe B?

How are you doing Gary? Not heard any updates off you recently.

 

 Not too bad thankyou, almost to the end of my second cycle. Chemo’s kicking my a... this time round but hopefully I’m half way there. Trial calls for 4-6 cycles, so we’ll see.

I got a pair of portwest ( i think probably the cheapest made iv seen) they was rated for ground based chainsaw work with all around protection except for the arse.

Quality wise they are pretty good i used them as back, back, back up i think they was only in the £60 region. My employer bought them and you cant refuse free kit its a law.
