## Overview

FORESTER Chainsaw Chaps deliver professional-level leg protection with OSHA and ASTM certification, featuring a lightweight 4-ply Oxford polyester shell engineered for cut resistance. Designed for all-day comfort with adjustable sizing and an apron-style quick on/off fit, these chaps also offer water and oil repellency plus a utility pocket, making them the essential safety gear for serious chainsaw operators.

## Description

FORESTER professional chainsaw safety chaps are UL listed and meet all OSHA requirements. From the 1200 denier water and oil resistant oxford outer shell with 6"x6" pocket, to the 12-layer chainsaw protection inside, these chaps are built to provide the highest level of protection. SIZING: All chaps fit waist size 28"-44". Short length fits most 5'-5'4", Regular length fits most 5'4"-6', Long length fits most 6'-6'4". Please note: Chainsaw safety chaps are designed to reduce the risk of injury should the chainsaw chain come in contact with the protective chaps. Wearing safety chaps does not guarantee the operator complete safety. Protective clothing should not be used as a substitute to safe and responsible chainsaw operating procedures. These chaps are not suitable protection for use with electric chainsaws, due to the high-torque nature of electric motors.

Review: Great pair of inexpensive chainsaw chaps that meet ASTM F1897-2014 39JY spec - I've used these chainsaw chaps 3 times now, and they do great. I normally wear 34" long jeans, and the 37" length overlaps my boots by a few inches as they should. The tags and documentation say these meet the updated ASTM F1897-2014 39JY spec, along with the Canadian CAN/BNQ 1923-450-M91 39JY class B. There's a lot of different specs thrown around with different chainsaw chaps, though the ASTM is the main US one, the commercial standard for chainsaw chap performance. OSHA 1910.266 says shall wear safety leg protection from ballistic nylon or similar. And ASTM F1414-13 is what UL uses as their standard for testing that it meets ASTM F1897. The only real different one is the USFS 11BF or FS6170-4. Most of those specs are non-safety related details (stitching, color, snaps, etc), along with fire safety related specs. Some documentation from Elvex points out that while the FS spec (year 2000 version) is tested at 3200 ft/sec instead of 2750 ft/sec (2008 version of ASTM F1897), that the testing procedure is a little different so they aren't really comparable. Why does this all matter? If I'm wearing chainsaw chaps, I want them to help protect me. I was willing to pay more for ones that would protect me better. ASTM F1897 is a pass/fail test so it doesn't tell you if one pair is better than another, but it does set the bar. In our forest service trail clearing chainsaw class they said the saw chaps had to meet the FS 6170-4 spec, and so I was trying to figure out what the differences were. But in the end, it turns out that for non-fire related chainsaw use on forest service land, that they now allow your chainsaw chap PPE to meet either the FS 6170-4 spec or the ASTM F1897 spec. See USDA FOREST SERVICE SAW OPERATIONS GUIDE 2016 electronic edition, v 1.3.1, page 15. [...] Long story short, these chainsaw chaps seem good. Like using a seatbelt even if you've never been in an accident, or a bike or ski helmet even if you've never had a crash resulting in a head injury, this is inexpensive insurance to make sure if something bad happens, you'll be better off than you would have been without the personal protective equipment. At this price, they are great. If you want to pay a little more and get a little more protection, the full ankle wrap models from Forester (Chap737-O), Woodland Pro, Labonville, or Husqvarna look like good choices. I'm including a bunch of pictures of the product and docs, since they give all these specs, and the info on these meeting ASTM F1897-2014 39JY for gas chainsaws, but not electric ones (as others have stated, this is due to the continuous high torque from an electric chainsaw). I hope all this info helps in making your decision, as I know if I had this info it would have helped me. Buy some before you fire up your saw again, and use them every time. Along with remembering to cut safely, these will help protect you if something doesn't go right. UPDATE: I've used these for 3 years, occasionally. I've probably dropped 10 bigger trees, done lots of limbing, bucked a few of the 24 cords of wood we burned, and used an alaskan chainsaw mill for 20 hours. No problems, though for trail work I was given a pair of Husqvarna full wrap chaps, so for the last few months I have preferred those. They have a few more straps and wrap fully around the ankle, which should better prevent or minimize injury in certain situations. I still think these are a great value and product, and will let my neighbor use them while I use the more expensive pair.
Review: Save your legs for a small price - Good price for basic class B safety chaps. How can you rate this product without ever having to use it for its designed purpose? I hope I never do! They are well made and the nylon is nice and heavy duty.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great pair of inexpensive chainsaw chaps that meet ASTM F1897-2014 39JY spec

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Save your legs for a small price
*by N***N on March 26, 2026*

Good price for basic class B safety chaps. How can you rate this product without ever having to use it for its designed purpose? I hope I never do! They are well made and the nylon is nice and heavy duty.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Shipping Delay but worth the wait
*by M***N on February 12, 2026*

I had some initial concerns about the shipping of chaps [received two notifications of delay] however, items did arrive. So far, chainsaw chaps fit great and work as expected. Price was cheaper than at the local chainsaw equipment store here in town.
