Rarely, but it has happened more than once, I forgotten the correct boots. It's because when I leave, all my safety gear except boots are already packed and ready to go with gear and equipment, whereas I store the boots with other footwear at my home. So on those few times, I had boots that weren't rated for chainsaw use and worked anyway. I try my hardest not to let that happen anymore. Protecting my eyes, face, legs, and head, and even putting on the reflective vest seem to come naturally as I feel naked without all that stuff; putting it all on is like motor memory without even thinking about it, but for some reason, I have to actively remember chainsaw boots. Don't ask me why...
