Web Description
This high-tech chainsaw boot offers comprehensive protection and fantastic grip for operations on steep slopes, slippery terrain and icy pathways. The Protector Alpin features a sole that takes inspiration from nature itself, with an integrated claw element in the bridge of the boot that prevents slipping off to the side when moving over branches and twigs. This also significantly reduces the risk of slipping on dead and waste timber or on wet surfaces and tree trunks.
Integrated chainsaw protective threads allow the Protector Alpin to withstand chainsaw speeds of up to 28 m/s, providing class 3 cut protection compliant with EN 20345:2011. Its broad and padded toe cap offers additional protection to prevent injury to the toes, while liquids such as oil and petrol are unable to penetrate the boot. The Protector Alpin is also resistant against heat and cold. Its GORE-TEX inner lining is both waterproof and breathable, giving you optimised climate comfort for all seasons – even under extreme conditions. The Protector Alpin also features HAIX’s patented Climate System, preventing the wearer’s feet from overheating, for cool, dry and fresh feet in all conditions.
