The Portwest CH12 Oak Chainsaw Bib and Brace is designed for chainsaw work in the forestry industry. The front of each leg is built with 9 layers of protection, and the lightweight construction lets you move freely through a working day.
The polycotton shell is breathable and moisture wicking, and its water-resistant finish makes water bead off the surface. Adjustable braces, a concealed zip and five pockets keep it practical for work out in the woods.
