Notch makes a decent pair. They a breathable material in the seat and back of legs. Not too bad. Much more comfortable than wrap chaps. Not too hard to get them at Sherrilltree. Elvex also has a decent pair. Get those at forestry suppliers.comAny suggestions for safety pants for summer use good ventilation and offers good protection?
Thank you.

That's better than in a Tree ain't it? Did you cut the Tendens?On the ground
Just a good guess one handing it .How did it happen so I know what not to do.
I have been sold for a long time on the use of chaps for cutting up trees and brush stuff on the ground and for stump grinding. Doing a 9' diameter red oak stump in 2009 my stump grinder crossed up with a horseshoe, steel pipe, twisted-shank nails, barbed wire and welded wire fence nestled inside the crotch of the double trunk tree. I keep that metal in a bag in my work truck to show those who don't believe my story and reason to wear chaps. The grinder teeth cut the horseshoe in half and threw it through the rubber safety curtain. PPE is good protection against accidents.Thanks to a sprout I didn't see a few years ago, I got a leg cut with my Stihl MS310. I had to go get stitches in it. A little over a week later I wound up in the hospital with (according to the doctor) 3 different infections. I almost didn't make it. I do believe I'm going to get some chaps or something.
I use Stihl Dynamic Vent pants. No 'overheating' problems in mid-80's temps.Any suggestions for safety pants for summer use good ventilation and offers good protection?

deeeeam!!!!!!!!!!!!
was it semi chisel ?John had a chain come off and whip up under his crotch once - cut right through his jeans. He about passed out when he looked and saw red - before he realized he was wearing red long drawers...
It was... twenty-five years ago, so if he said, I don't recall. Somehow I think that wouldn't have been at the top of his worries list at that point.was it semi chisel ?
I appreciate this tip. My Kevlar chaps sure get hot in the summer months but I want the safety more than a risk of serious injury that’ll happen in a flash.I use Stihl Dynamic Vent pants. No 'overheating' problems in mid-80's temps.
