Mine have lasted very well in the woods. Only thing wrong with them is where i melted the material with a 372 exhaust dressing out some larch.

 

Surprised; ours are holding up as well as any other in the woods; ragging them through bramble, and 6' high brash etc. With Husky A's you are supposed to order the size bigger than you would normally - I didn't and 2 days later re-ordered 2xthe bigger size; much better.

 

Maybe they're just settling in and it's just the initial wear - but after a week they do look like they've taken a proper beating. We're in amongst a bit of light bramble in places and the brash is fairly light hardwood so really nothing too bad.

 

That's interesting on the sizing though, the prolights I'd wear a large, the technicals, the large were huge and the mediums I can't wear without braces.

I heard they aren't right clever

 

Tree Beard off here was wearing some cool looking billies today - v similar to the Husky A's with rear vents etc and cool. Can't remember what they were called tho - some double barrelled German brand - £120.

 

Englebert Strauss - they'll be what I'll be replacing the husky ones with if they do end up going back.
