you could try doing what ice-skaters do - wear their tights over their boots...

Theres a trick that iv seen people In the army do to waterproof thier boots. Seems wierd and dont know how hot it would be in winter but....get some merry golds and cut the hand off. Put the arm part of the merry gold on ur leg before u put ur boot on and then once the boot is on u stick the rubber over. Might be excessive but hey

I still have a pair of boot covers I wore when I worked in OZ years ago, wore shorts so had to wear them.

 

Like these.

I don't get sawdust as such. I sometimes get chip though. But only when I'm wading through undergrowth in order to de-limb. I don't wear them in the woods but you could try gaiters.

 

What I get is loads of chip down my trousers tops, when ringing/sectioning oversized logs. There's only so much chip & sawdust, before it gets rather uncomfortable. I know the remedy would be to wear something that covers the waistband. But I'm the kind of person who (a) wears braces and (b) overheats when working, if the temp. is 8°C. So unless it's actually pelting down or snowing, I'll be in a T-shirt.

Why not try bib n brace they would stop chip from getting down your bollox

Not so much stuff going down front. It's when the chip is fountaining vertically during the reduction cut, then gravity does its thing and the chips fall down the backside. I see what you mean about bib 'n'braces though.

Yep, a pair of walking gaiters over your boot or some leg warmers from your dance instructor.
