    X2 the chaps have taken care of the problem for me. Also keep my legs from getting beat up from brush.

    I will have to try the chaps to see if that helps.
    As soon as I walk in the house I can see my wife looking me over to see how much dirt and chips on hanging off me.

    I have to admit though I am getting used to it.

    Yep, I always wear boots. No chips then. Also, the chaps help a ton too.


    I also never roll up my jeans cuffs.

    When I was a kid we always had to come into the house through the wood shed. We kept a broom right next to that door and you had better get everything off before you chanced that door. The wood shed was an attached lean-to at the back entry door so you could get wood without actually going outside.

    I cut mostly in winter, so chaps allow me to keep drier, especially if I have to kneel on snow to fuel a saw or whatever.
