I am 6 feet tall and weigh about 180lbs. Unless you have legs like tree trunks these are simply too big, especially around the legs. The cinch straps wont tighten enough on these meaning they are free to rotate around and leave your legs dangerously exposed. For just a little bit more money you can buy properly fitting Stihl chaps from the store. I wouldn't recommend these to anybody apart from Nellie the Elephant or Dumbo.

At 5'11 and 200lbs, I guess I am fairly average sized. These chaps are enormous for 'one size fits all'. They should advertise that they protect your stomach and chest since you have to cinch the belt up near your nipples to keep from tripping over the bottoms. One remark I heard was that I appeared to be a 90 year old man with my Sansabelt slacks pulled up sky high. I wore boots & jeans and they were still very baggy.

I didnt test the function of the chaps, but they seemed to be fairly easy to work in. They were hot though...I had to take them off every half hour to cool off.

All in all, if they do what they are supposed to, I'll be happy to put up with the poor fit and odd looks to keep my legs attached to the rest of my body.

Have worn these pants a few times, they fit well, adjustment buckles are in right places, I have NO complaints at all! Of course I have no intention of "trying" to see if they stop my chain saw!!!

Because of the way these chaps are cut and the one-size-fits-all fitting (my waist is 34"), the leggings tend to rotate so that my inner calfs and thighs are very exposed. It seems that the inner legs are as likely to get hit as the outer legs, so I think this is a pretty major design flaw. I plan on returning mine and trying something else.

The quality of these chaps seems pretty good, but the claim of one size fits all is misrepresentation.
Unless you are 6 foot plus, 200lbs and have a hefty build, especially thighs and legs, these will not fit you.
I'm 5 feet 9, 168 lbs. and they were a good 6 inches too long and with the straps tightened all the way were still very loose on my legs.

Had to shorten then a little and sewed up the crotch a little and added suspenders now they fit good and work good

This item appears to be a high quality item. I have been wearing it while I use my chain saw. I hope that I never have to see how well it works.

These chaps fit too loose,and the straps are a tripping hazard. The first and only time I wore these chaps, I tripped over the straps several times. I am an advocate of chainsaw pants, but these are lilkely to cause more accidents than they prevent in my opinion. I wish I had spent my money on a better quality product.

They weigh more than I expected, however a good price. Might be worth spending $20 more for something friendlier to wear in the woods for several hours.

These chaps adjust to fit just about any size and they are long enough to cover to your shoes. I am 6' and 225 lbs and I think I am about halfway in the middle in terms of the range that these will adjust. The nylon padding appears that it will jam a chainsaw on contact. I'll be sure to update this review if I ever find out for sure. :)
