I’m pleased to have received my new Arbortec Scafell Lite chainsaw boots today. I’ll be using these for tree work only, I’ve got another pair of chainsaw boots that I’ll use on the ground. If you are using the Scafell Lites then I would like to hear your opinion on how they perform and if you are pleased with them.

 

cheers Paul Tomo

I remember the first day I wore my airstreams they were agony. The size was right but the fit just wasn't. They ended up being incredibly comfy though, like a heavy extension of my legs. 

First time wearing my scafell lites wasn't nearly as traumatic, and the fit is absolutely bang on. So I've high hopes for them! 

Waterproofing... Fingers crossed. Though unless you're really caring of them, taking the insoles out and washing inside, treating the outsides etc. they're gonna leak eventually.

Oh and the free socks you get with them are crap I found my bridgedales to be far more comfortable

Thanks Alex for your feedback,

 

The boots I use at the moment are boot polished pretty regular as they are a leather boot and this does keep the water out on a rainy day so there are no wet socks and feet. The socks I use are the long woolly thermal type that only £1.50 a pair, I bought one pair from the local seaside market to try out and they are well worth the £1.50 and so the next time I went down to the market I spent £10 on the same socks.

Not had any problems with mine. They seem to have good grip in the tree aswell as the ground. I can't complain and on my 2nd pair

Thanks gang,

 

Did you do much walking around in them first to wear them in or did you put them straight to work.
