Saw chaps/pants?

[LowVolt]

This thread's a reminder for me to get some chaps before this fall cuttin. Not that I should need a reminder since I have had a chainsaw accident a few years ago (and paid dearly for it $). Just always put it off. Anyways, Im getting older and smarter and am going to order some Labonvilles from Baileys on my next order. I have never owned chaps before or wore them. Reading some of the previous post, Im a little confused as which to buy. I am 6'5'' and usually where a 34'' inseam Carhart paint low on the waist.

What size do I need to order?
36'' pad 40 overall or the 40'' pad 44 overall? It seems like the 36/40 would sit on the boot just right but maybe they should be a little long so that they cover the boot? Im looking at the Xtremes with 10 ply and there is only a $5 difference in the two. Id just hate to order the wrong size and then go thru trying to sell them.

I am 6'1 and where a 34 inseam. I needed a 40in length for my stihl chaps for them to fit right.

Rory, overlook my ignorance, but let me clarify... is the 40'' length the pad length or the overall length? Baileys has them listed as 36 pad/40 overall or 40 pad/44 overall.

Not sure but I can measure mine at home though they are stihl chaps.

I don't remember having to deal with overall length and pad length??? I thought it was just overall length.

Which ones are you looking at? This is what I would get if it were me.

Overall length is what you want to go by.
