FORESTER Chainsaw Chaps Apron-Style Orange 40" — OSHA/ASTM Certified Cut-Resistant Leg Protection

FORESTER Chainsaw Chaps are apron-style, professional-grade leg protection that meet OSHA, ASTM, and CAN/BNQ standards to reduce injury risk during chainsaw work.

Designed for loggers, arborists, landscapers and homeowners who need reliable on-the-job protection, these chaps combine a tough, water- and oil-resistant outer shell with multi-layer cut arresting materials inside. The open-back apron design slips on quickly, features an adjustable waist and leg straps for a secure fit, and includes a deep utility pocket for tools. Note: chaps are engineered to reduce the severity of injury in the event of chain contact but are not a substitute for safe chainsaw operation; they are not recommended for high-torque electric chainsaws.

How do these chaps protect my legs while I work?

The chaps use multiple layers of cut-arresting fabric beneath a durable 1200-denier oxford shell to slow and stop a moving chain, helping prevent deep lacerations. Materials and construction conform to OSHA 1910.266, ASTM F1897, and CAN/BNQ 1923-450 M91 Class B standards, giving you professional-grade protection trusted in the field.

• 12-layer internal cut-arresting material for chain disruption
• 1200D water- and oil-resistant oxford polyester outer shell
• Meets OSHA, ASTM F1897, and CAN/BNQ Class B certifications
• UL listed for chainsaw protective apparel

Will the fit work for my height and waist size?

FORESTER chaps are made to fit a broad range of bodies with adjustable waist sizing and multiple length options. Choose short, regular, or long lengths to match your height, and fine-tune the fit with the flip belt and leg straps for stable coverage from waist to ankle.

• Waist accommodates approximately 28"–44" (adjustable up to 48" in some models)
• Lengths: short (for ~5'–5'4"), regular (for ~5'4"–6'), long (for ~6'–6'4")
• Flip-belt allows up to 2" shortening for a custom fit
• Secure leg straps keep chaps in place during movement

What practical features help on the jobsite?

The apron-style construction makes these chaps quick to put on and remove between tasks, while the heavy-duty outer shell sheds water and oil so you stay drier and cleaner. A large 6" x 6" utility pocket stores essential hand tools or gloves, and the lightweight four-ply oxford design minimizes fatigue during extended work.

• Open-back apron style for rapid on/off convenience
• 6" x 6" deep utility pocket for tools or gloves
• Water- and oil-repellent outer fabric for durability in damp conditions
• Lightweight four-ply oxford construction to reduce worker fatigue

Are there limitations I should know about?

These chaps are intended to reduce injury risk from a chainsaw chain; they do not make chainsaw use risk-free and do not replace safe operating practices. They are specifically not recommended for protecting against the high torque and unique hazards associated with many electric chainsaws.

• Not a substitute for safe chainsaw technique and PPE like helmets and eye protection
• Unsuitable for certain high-torque electric chainsaws
• Regular inspection and replacement required after any chain contact or visible damage

Who is this for: FORESTER Chainsaw Chaps are aimed at professionals and serious DIYers who need certified leg protection—forestry workers, arborists, landscapers, loggers and property owners performing heavy tree work. If you want quick on/off convenience, certified cut-arresting performance, and functional features like an adjustable fit and a utility pocket, these chaps deliver industrial-level protection suitable for most gasoline-powered chainsaw work.
