We bought Harke tops & trousers for winter work in forest, they are very hot and only bearable in -15 degrees! also you get soaking wet because you are sweating.. They are supposed to breath but not found any jackets that do yet. Saying that, Tim wears his a lot more than me and even climbs in his, but he does feel the cold..I have never worn the trousers after I nearly cooked the 1st time I wore them, they kept falling down as well and tripping me up, probably too big!

Stupid question...but why a waterproof chainsaw jacket/trousers, why not just over trousers and a normal waterproof jacket like a millet (not millets) or a mountain hardware etc climbing jacket, or a paramo smock?

 

 

The ones I'm looking at have no chainsaw protection there just hi vis rain wear for when I'm doing forestry or the odd wet days grass cutting. The only stupid question is the one you don't ask:thumbup1:
