A newbie CS boot question that fits in several sections

[scbk]

Just get a set of decent work boots, and a set of lace up chainsaw boots. The chainsaw boots are double the price, and a bit heavier, so don't use them for general work.

[krummholz]

Yep save the chainsaw boots for chainsawing, if it's occasional use they'll last for years and years (assuming you don't cut them), whereas using them for general work will wear out the more expensive boot quicker, and you'll be carrying around a lot of unnecessary weight daily.

Do not mess about peds get some chest waders 🤣

 

 

I'm a yuge fan of my waders, mostly used for foraging seaweed and oysters, and for dragging the kids around in the canoe.

 

Cut protection... not the best.

Specifically chainsaw wellies . Don't do it . Your call obviously . I spend a bit of time in Chameau wellies . They are like carpet slippers compared to chainsaw wellies .   

Yep , in agreement on chainsaw wellies - Satan's footwear !!  But a good set of not bargain basement wellies for general use is money well spent. The cheapest from farm supplies are cold, uncomfortable and will with regular use only last six months.  Go up a level of expenditure and you'll be rewarded
