Chainsaw Trousers

About

Chainsaw trousers are specifically designed to protect your legs from injury when using a chainsaw - this is particularly important in the legs due to the major arteries found there. They're constructed from layers of fabric that entangle the spinning blade of a chainsaw, stopping it near-instantly by jamming it. Chainsaw-rated trousers that conform to national standards are beyond essential for tree surgeons, arborists, and anyone else who uses a chainsaw for a hobby or profession. Hi-vis variants are perfect for commercial applications, where being seen is important and required by law (to alert vehicles and other workers on site, for example). You can also choose between trousers that sport traditional features and protections you'd expect to find on non-specialised work trousers, like wear panels, stretch panels, and insulation. Be aware that chainsaw trousers may be designed specifically for use by left-handed, right-handed, or ambidextrous people. This affects where the chainsaw protection is situated and how many layers are used. The trousers are not designed to protect against penetration from regular slashes, stabs, or crush risks. Because of the layering, chainsaw trousers are usually well-insulated and often come with waterproofing.
