I nearly took my leg off twice in one day cutting in brush with no chaps when learning to use a saw on a land clearing job many years ago. It was my fault and lack of experience. I have since learned some respect for my machines and made a few upgrades as well but I never pick up a saw without my chaps on. Definitely cheap insurance and they add an extra later of warmth in the winter as well.
 
When they say they're hot in the summer they're not kidding. I need to shorten the lower buckle straps, I keep stepping on them when stepping back.
I have no shame wearing the blue brand chaps swinging an orange saw :D
