Hey, I stock chaps here! They are in the boxes covered with dust!
See what I mean? I've been there a few times, and I never would have known that you sold them unless I asked. Hang a pair on the wall, man!

I see you actually have alterior motives to this thread... figures.
I will answer your question... because i don't farkin' wanna.
Who are you to question the validity of my actions. I gots a couple of scars from saws. One on my left knee, and one on my left hand... No biggee...
"Hey you guys... you are stupid if you don't wear chaps... oh looky here i have a whole bunch in stock... How did that happen?"
Great thread... :censored:

I will answer your question and play devils advocate.
What is more dangerous in terms of having a chainsaw accident, bucking logs and falling or climbing trees and doing removals?
Tree climbing wins hands down. Do those guys wear chaps? No.
Then why should I wear chaps when bucking logs or falling if I wouldn't wear them in a tree?
IMO, a hard hat and safety glasses are the bare minimum. Anything else is for precaution. An icing on the cake type deal.....
Ok, why don't most dealers stock chaps? I've been to at least 7 dealers of both major brands this year, and have yet to see a single pair for sale.
whens the last time you saw somebody in a climbing harness cutting below his waiste? apples to oranges

Until you have witnessed or done full manufacture production falling, you can't make this assumption.
You know i think they should be stocked with saws.and i think they should be
offered when you buy a saw .My dealer for stihl has 2 full time mechanics
and does a heck of a saw business but you dont see chaps in the store.
its to each his own but i think its a very good idea.chaps are cheap compared
to the clothes we have to wear to race and there is no option you put it on
or you dont race and it has to be re certified every couple years.
oh wait i have one
