People's thoughts on Class 1 vs Class 3 ???

 

I've also just found a similar thread going back to October .... Anyone tried the Lavoro Sherwoods or the Tree Hog Extreme's ???

 

EDIT: ^^^^^^^ I was typing as you posted 😊.... how did they come up size wise did you need bigger / smaller than the quoted ???  

For what you want boots for go for one of cheaper boots and you should be fine with Class 1 ... been using a chainsaw for over 40 years and not sure how you would manage to cut a foot with a chainsaw at full revs beyond the toecap but expect you can if you try hard enough!

I find them a comfortable boot though they took some breaking in, particularly at the heel. They come up a little large, and they ain’t the lightest boot but they are certainly comfortable, waterproof and give great ankle support. TBH I’m not one for buying footwear by mail order...been caught out too much! The guy in R&T said comparing them with the Yukon’s was like night and day.

Is there any class requirements for boots on a CS38/39 course? Or will class 1 suffice?

Class 1 will be fine for CS39. You can do CS38 in trainers (in theory) but wouldn't, they get stuck in the tree forks.
