I moved from stretch air type c to stihl hiflex type c and found the stihl trousers to be less hard-wearing so moved back to stretch air and the new ones are even better. You get what you pay for in this game. They feel more solid, look smarter and you don't look like some teenager wearing skinny jeans with massive boots.

 

Good tip someone told me-wear base layer (tights) underneath to make them last longer. Don't get as sweaty so you don't have to wash as often.

Upgraded from Clogger trousers which are absolutely pants (went straight through them with a MS200T without even stopping) to a pair of SIPs. Found them not to be very hard wearing and ripped really easily. Ended up carrying heaps of sawdust through the house as it got into all the rips then emptied itself out when I took em off. Now on a pair of Stihl HiFlex which I think are pretty good. They seem to be harder wearing and I love having all the pockets though it does mean I tend to forget where I put keys, wallet, MP3, tissues etc. Keen to try the strecth airs sometime but was told they weren't worth the extra money.

They are.

Ditto.

Now I have a pair I could never go back to anything else.

Just picked up a pair of stretch airs on eBay for £160 and they're great trousers. Way stretchier than I expected and the water resistance when I spilled yea on them whilst driving the van on Friday was a huge improvement over my old trousers:thumbup:

Important factor that mate!
