    Bill Engvall personally told me that this was someone sign LMAO

    Saw this in the sale ad this week.

    http://www.menards.com/main/flyer.h...stmanufacturing&flyer=flyer&getGoogleKey=true

    Full chaps and includes a pair of safety glasses, earplugs, and gloves.
    You people without chaps and close to a menards (or willing to ship) are FOOLISH for not jumping on this! Its even cheaper than the Stihl set on sale posted earlier this week! Hell, buy one for your buddy for Xmas at this price!

    The husky chaps they have for the rangers at work are those short husky kind and look funny. I laugh when I see the guys wearing them. They go to their shins. I bought my set at northern tool when I got a saw, did not buy saw their. But I got large size. I am 6'2". They has sizes and said what u needed bases on ur height. There is also a way to roll the waist strap down to fit better. But I have them unrolled to the Max. I would not mind if they were an inch longer.

    Wraps stay put better but are much warmer to wear in the summer time.

    Can someone who ordered them, post the length when you receive them?? I have been wanting to get a shorter pair.

    I'd just order some, but don't want 2 long pair. I have the better of the 2 Husq chaps. Thy are awesome chaps, but made for a 6' + person.

    Thanks again! I ordered a set instead of having my father in law get them. All said and done, was $43.91. That's still "WAY" cheaper than what I was finding. Menards charges $2.80 for a prosessing fee for on line orders:confused:, Oh well. I did some digging and they are a decent pair made by Forester. It's better than 19 stitches in the knee:eek:…………. yea, we won't go there and that was years ago:whistle: DD, I'll give you the 411 when they come in.
