chainsaw boots, DO work...

[Andy Collins]

Its not just when you're sawing you need your boots on. My mate was unloading in the dark last night, dropped the tailgate to tip off some large beech rings, and one about 2foot across landed on his big toe. He'd slipped off his boots earlier and put on some trainers, and now has a very black foot and broken toe.

You must have deformed feet mate.

on any other day i would,,, but don't think carpet tape will stop a 200.... not worth the risk if i'm honest,,, my feet are worth more than the cost of a pair of boots,,,

 

over the summer i climbed in walking boots a bit,,,, never again,,

 

tom,, i prefer hIAx...

Do you think the blocking material did anything or was it just the thickness of the leather?

 

Good to see no injury.

Scroll about half way down this and see what the guy's leather boots did for him when he missed the steel toecap...
