The REVOLUTION trousers have been fitted with a unique heat protection area on the right thigh (patent pending);

this material is manufactured from NOMEX® and is designed to protect the trousers from accidental burning from chainsaw exhausts.

Hi Mick, These have actually been out field tested for nearly 18-months by some very well known people. Come and see them at the ARB Show and try them on for size and fit i think you will be impressed.

can you share these 'well known people's opinions/reviews?

[Steve Bullman]

I dont think its a big secret Alex, though i can't tell you who they are. I can tell you though that I am one of the people whose been trialing them for the best part of a year now, and have found no fault in them so far. They are a comfortable fit, stretchy as you'd expect. I have 2 small holes in mine, one from an exhaust burn(not on the heat resistant patch) and one I got when snagged on a particularly sharp piece of cedar. Neither of the holes have run, which shows the ripstop is equal to any of the other trousers on the market IMO.

Everything else seems to be holding up just fine. No stitching issues to date, and the zip is fully intact

 

The only thing I cant honestly comment on is how they compare in weight to over trousers. I only ever wear a type A and the stein trousers ive been wearing are type C. I was however wearing them in the mini heat stroke we had a few weeks back with no real issues.

 

Shall be replacing them with type A's now they're available

look like a snip for £154 (compared to others ehem) for the long leg, may have to try some:thumbup:

[alex_m]

cheers steve, just needed something more to go on. based on what you have said, they sound in a similar condition to my year old stretch airs which can only be a good thing for trousers that are £100 ish less.

[Mesterh]

Look like quality trousers.

 

Steve, you may wanna read through your post again and edit it a bit.
