IMO best on market would be a toss up between pfanner and the arbortec trousers. Had Stihl over the years but imo there not a patch on the above ☝️ 👍

Quite like wearing type c on the windy winter days in Scotland but it's type a most of the year to stay cool.

For 'c' I found Arbortec comfortable, had a few different Stihl ones (one of which was Flex I think) and they're tougher wearing I'd say.

At the min am wearing the arbortec breatheflex type c blue. I’ve had the breathflex fluorescent yellow both types they do they was nice to wear I’ve had the breathflex kaki green to. Had the pfanner fluorescent yellow they was nice to wear to but I really rate the arbortec trousers

breatheflex legacy are worth the extra, nice and comfy. different fabric type to the norm. less like a cheesegrater on bare skin. but a bit warm in the summer. stihl xflex are good for the summer with the vents in the back.

Arbortech breatheflex kevlar here. Love them but like all trousers they will be on the warm side as a type c vs a type a

Pfanner arborist, hands down 👌
