Never used pants but love the Husqvarna chaps I got from Tractor Supply. One belt clip, two clips on each leg and your done. Easy to take off when your done cutting or even when you take a break. I was also worried about ending up drenched in sweat with pants.
never tried pants but im on my 2nd set of full wrap chaps. the first took the moving chain on while i was still in them. now i never cut without wearing them.

dame, and i was planning to go pick up a gallon of oil on the way home, and try it out on the wife.
I had a close call once, I was on a log and the chain was coming to a stop but i moved too soon and the chain cut through my jeans and just scrached my leg, it could have been so much worse so now even if i am only cutting for a little bit i put my protection on. Also when i was up in the U.P smelt dipping i was cutting down a dead barkless tree for fire wood and the top fell off and hit me in the side of the head and knocked me out, i woke up with my feet in the creek so i also put my helmet and facegard on now also. Got lucky 2 times and it is not going to happen to me again if i can help it.
I found Epoxy works great on her mouth:hmm3grin2orange:
