PPE
« on: November 10, 2014, 07:22:11 AM »

Who has decent PPE with decent prices? Looking for suggestions and opinions.  Chaps or pants? What does everyone use for safety glasses? They don't work well with ear muffs and I was looking for opinions on that as well. Thanks!

I got these for head/face/ears and they are very comfortable.

I also go these chaps: http://www.stihlusa.com/products/protective-and-work-wear/chain-saw-protective-apparel/wrapchap/

I also wear gloves and ANSI rated sunglasses.  I wear the chaps always when I'm cutting and I wear the helmet when I'm felling or limbing.  I ALWAYS wear ear protection. 

There was a death too close to home that got my butt in gear with my PPE.

I wear Lebonville full wrap chaps and love them.  I bought them from Baileys online.
