I'm probably wrong by thinking this but I like the idea of reassurance from it being owned by a big name Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Yeah, my dad works in a similar field and said he finds it hard to get the stihl ear defenders tight enough to his ears and also says the husky ones just feel like they're a better/sturdier build Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Thanks, I've been told the husky helmets are generally better than stihl anyway? Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Thanks for the advice, much appreciated:) Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Thanks, mate. I'll look into that Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Thanks mate, I'll try that. However I do have a farmer friend who reckons he can get some money off with his guy if I tell him what I need and then my dad also works in a similar field and gets some money off where he goes so I'll have to figure out which would be the best deal.

Nah, they don't suggest any suppliers but they do have a kit list, they basically just want you to have trousers, boots and a helmet with the ear defenders and glasses on. They have all the saws and such at the college Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Sadly not, they expect you to have it all by the first day Sent from my iPhone using Arbtalk

Hi all, I'm starting college this September to study forestry and I'm yet to buy my PPE. Looking for advice on which are the best for a range of tasks I'd be doing. At the minute it looks as though I'd be getting the stihl advance X-flex trousers but I arnt really sure, Any advice on gloves, trousers, helmets etc. Is valued.
