FAQs

Are these chaps suitable for professional loggers?

These chaps are rated Class 1 (20 m/s) and are designed for occasional chainsaw work. For professional, heavy-duty use, professional-grade chainsaw protective trousers are recommended.

How do I determine the correct size?

The chaps feature adjustable waist and leg straps, allowing for a customized fit across a range of adult sizes. Ensure they fit comfortably over your work trousers without being too tight or too loose.

Can I wash these chaps in a washing machine?

It is recommended to clean the chaps with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals, as this can damage the protective materials.

What does 'Class 1 (20 m/s)' protection mean?

This rating indicates the chaps are designed to protect against a chainsaw chain moving at speeds up to 20 meters per second. This is a standard for protective legwear.

Do I need to wear specific footwear with these chaps?

The chaps are designed to be worn over work trousers and are generally compatible with sturdy work boots. Ensure your boots provide adequate ankle support.

How durable are the Cordura reinforcements?

Cordura is a highly durable material known for its abrasion resistance. These reinforcements are placed on the knees and ankles to extend the life of the chaps in areas prone to wear and tear.

Troubleshooting

Chaps feel too loose or too tight

Readjust the waist, leg straps, and calf hook-and-loop fasteners. Ensure they are snug but do not restrict circulation or movement.

Visibility is reduced

Ensure the high-viz orange front is facing forward and that the reflective logo is clean and unobstructed.

Chaps are uncomfortable after extended wear

Ensure proper adjustment was made during initial setup. Consider wearing lighter-weight trousers underneath in warmer conditions.
