I have been using these pants for the last few months, and they are awesome. About half the weight of my pfanners. But also kept me warm today in some brutal freaking wind. Have been holding up pretty well too. I know Shelter tree is carrying them, not sure if anyone else has them.

Mac how much did they cost to get them to your door? Or did you go to UK and were them out the store?

 

[Leroy]

Have you worn them on hot days? If so, how was the comfort?

 

[macswan]

Shelter tree is getting them from the uk, so no extra charges. They are running around $300. Don't know tax and whatnot. George sold a lot of them at the expo, so they might be out of stock, but will be getting more.

I have worn them in the heat, and they are very comfortable. Like I said, half the weight of my pfanner vents. I think the vents are fine in the heat, these pants are just a lot more comfortable. Even the fit is a bit better.

Those look sweet. My vents are very comfortable now that they are broken in, so are we talking canopy pants comfortable? Sounds awesomeawesome

I went on there website mac and didn't see them there. They look sweet though, are they warm in winter too or do you need more layers in the rear?

They are new, if you give them a call, they can hook you up. Old school.

So far, I have just worn long johns underneath. They are the canopy pants of chainsaw pants.

the vents are always very close to my skin, these not so much

Two pair of undies fo up to minus 10, and briefs with long john's if colder. Good pants, if you swore off chainsaw pants like I did, these will change your mind.

Pair of these showed up yesterday, just wearing them around the house and yard, I gotta say holy smokes, Im really impressed. Definitely does not feel like I'm wearing a diaper under snow pants.

I'd like to get a pair of these but I'm a bit worried about size. Waist wise I'm a medium but the leg seems really short. I'm 5'10 and usually wear a 32" leg, am I going to be sporting some clam diggers here or what?

 

[JontreeHI]

I'm 6-1, I got medium regular (32 32). They come right to the top of my boots, a perfect fit for me.

 

[rockettree]

Thanks, that should work out great.

Mac, are you comparing these to the newer vents with the zippers behind the leg? If so, that's nuts cause those vents are really thin!

 

[macswan]

No, my pfanners are a couple years old at this point

UK gustharts have a discount on them, post should be around $20 mark,

I have the new vents, these feel considerably lighter and airier. Much more comfy right out of the box

Wow.
