I seem to be good at splitting the crotch in my chainsaw trousers. Any recommendations for a sturdy crotched pair?

Both SIP and arbortec trousers have split at the crotch from climbing, is this common? Any know some trousers that are less likely to split there? or am i being too flexy lol

Are they type c? I find type C in any brand go at the crotch for fun, not had type A do it yet.

Wear braces and buy Gladiators.

Do you have something inside your trousers that keeps splitting them? Sorry, childish comment, but someone had to make it. I have used Stein Sentinel and Stein Guardian type C for a few years now, with no problems when climbing. That said, my 63 year old hips may not stretch them to their limits.

Never ever had a crotch go on a pair of chainsaw trousers. Also never had much luck with the ladies, not sure if theres any connection there.

 

in all seriousness, stretch air are the best I’ve found, but theres also a big difference in the difference cuts which will have an impact depending on your body shape. For example o wear a small in stretch airs which are perfect, whereas a medium in arbortecs I don’t a bit restrictive round the hips

They need to be pulled up nearer to your bollox . So belt , braces etc etc .

Might of being a lunge to far?

I recall selling a pair of Stihl trousers years ago to a person who travels, and he was more interested in how he looked in them and how they hugged his physique......a week later they came back with a split crotch. Remember it's not a fashion show, and in the right areas baggy is best.

Was that prior to n APF show by any chance?
