Chainsaw boots

[Mick Dempsey]

Don’t threaten us with a triple ellipsis!

 

Seriously though you asked advice on sore hands on another thread, you were given some pointers, by me amongst others, but did not even acknowledge it.

 

Do as you like.

Type c pants are a requirement to conduct the practical part of the course, so is using both hands on the top handled saw at all times, just saying...

My partner occasionally comes along with me on jobs, she found it hard to get size 4 chainsaw boots, settled for a pair of oregons in the end. Not a climbing boot, just to say if you're of a smaller build your options may be limited. From memory aborted and pfanner had a selection of smaller sizes.

Fwiw I find sawboots very snug, especially on rough ground. Heavy, yes but reassuringly solid.

I wear gloves on my feet.

 

 

Because I am a naughty little Monkey.

 

Seriously , aspiring Tree Woman. You are a bit too snappy to have a career in this game frankly.

Nothing worse than crap boots ! 
Tbh your spoilt for choice , you can have good all round boots or boots I would say that are better suited to spikes and removals to virtual climbing boots ideal for climbing on pruning work and long ascents on big trees… stay away from the oregons though ffs !

Always a bit suspicious of new posters asking open questions.

 

I did wonder whether that Alex Arb was a fiction of some sort.
