Lightweight summer chainsaw strides

[Acerforestry]

A forestry colleague who isn't Internet savvy has asked if I'll help him order a pair of decent light type A's and I suggested that as with a few of the other blokes, maybe Breath flex. I know opinions differ and some say they are rubbish but I haven't actually tried anything airer for summer use-problem may be that he's built like a prop forward and has already tried pfanner gladiator, too tight on the legs apparently. Which are roomier cut-wise the standard or Pro version, or can anyone suggest  anything equally light, cheers

Is he tall? If not then maybe look at some Stihl trousers, I had some before and they were roomy but not long enough for me. The Stihls are I think quite good for the money, breathflex tend to rip if you stare at them too hard but breathflex pro much better made.

He could try a set of the Arbortec deep forest. They are a bit more robust than the b/flex pro. Also have a look at the Stihl  X-Light they feel very light and good value for money

I have these which come with very long rear leg vents.

I found the Solidur Infinity Trousers to be excellent. Very hard wearing, absolutely massive leg vents on the back, and I think you can get them in different leg lengths too. 

 

I got mine from Chris Forestry 👍🏼

Cloggers made in Australia I think . I have a pair . Not CE marked though if that is a problem .

Forestandarb where advertising a brand I had never heard of yesterday, claiming the lightest type ‘A’ s in the UK market.

Cloggers without a doubt are the least warm of any saw trousers but as stubby says are not ce marked…. And bloody expensive!

These are very light and would suit his build, they’re like MC Hammer pants.
