Features
VERY COMFORTABLE TO WEAR AND GOOD WEATHER PROTECTION. The protective equipment is completely or partially made of a waterproof and simultaneously breathable material, making it very comfortable to wear. Excess body heat is wicked to the outside.
COMPREHENSIVE CUT PROTECTION. Cut protection trousers with design C in accordance with EN ISO 11393, have cut protection that covers your front lower body and rear leg area. Design C is intended for people who use chainsaws infrequently or irregularly, for example.
FOR HIGH COMFORT. Your protective clothing should protect you, but also allow you the greatest possible freedom of movement, which is achieved with full-stretch material. The fully elastic fabric stretches in all directions for excellent comfort.
FOR EXCELLENT FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT. The ProElast Stretch insert is elasticated not only at the crotch, but also at the trouser legs for particularly comfortable wear. The ProElast stretch insert in the crotch also offers flexibility if the wearer needs to get into extreme positions, facilitating a high degree of freedom of movement. To enable this, the cut protection in the crotch has not been sewn together, but is instead connected by an elastic insert.
FOR COMFORTABLE WORK. The individually adjustable waist width with Velcro fastener makes working particularly comfortable. This means that the fit can be optimally adapted to different body shapes and is therefore suitable for both women and men, making working for longer periods of time more pleasant.
WICKS EXCESS BODY HEAT TO THE OUTSIDE. Its breathable material makes it comfortable to wear, even when you’re working hard. This is because moisture is wicked to the outside, while fresh air is let in.
INCREASE WORK COMFORT. Ventilation openings allow you to control the temperature inside your personal protective equipment. Simply open or close the ventilation openings as required.
STOPS TICKS GETTING IN. Ticks are a widespread danger in the forest. There are clips at the leg openings of your trousers, which you can attach to the shoelaces of your shoes. This prevents ticks from being able to crawl between your trousers and shoes towards your body.
PROTECTS AGAINST WEAR AND SCRATCHES. The use of particularly robust materials in exposed, high-stress areas increases the durability of your workwear. On the one hand this protects against rapid wear and tear, but it also prevents material damage and injuries from thorns.
HYPOTHERMIA PROTECTION. The fast-drying functional fabric of your protective clothing is ideal for work in changing weather conditions and sweaty jobs. The high-quality material protects you from hypothermia.
FOR MORE VISIBILITY. Stay visible even in poor conditions, to avoid accidents. The high proportion of bright orange makes your protective clothing more eye-catching.
BETTER VISIBILITY. Reflective areas not only look good on your protective clothing, but also increase your safety. They mean that you will always be easy to see, even in the dark or in the forest.
ADVANCE FlexTEC trousers: Greater range of motion and functionality for professionals in forestry and tree care
Our breathable and extremely comfortable STIHL ADVANCE FlexTEC trousers are particularly suitable for professional forestry work, tree climbing, horticulture and landscaping. The knee area is reinforced with robust, waterproof, elastic fabric and the lower leg area is also protected against thorns and abrasion. The particularly breathable and lightweight AVERTIC™ pro lite+ cut protection material was developed exclusively for STIHL especially for professional use. It is elastically bonded to the outer fabric of the trousers, ensuring increased freedom of motion.
Our STIHL ADVANCE FlexTEC trousers in slim fit design adapt well to different body shapes thanks to the high proportion of elasticated material and an individually adjustable waistband with Velcro fastening, making them equally suitable for both women and men. For protection against hypothermia, they include generous kidney protection with quick-drying 3D mesh on the inside. In addition to 2 side pockets, a back pocket and a thigh pocket, they also have a ruler pocket and a tool key pocket. All pockets are equipped with a flat zip closure to prevent resinification of the zip teeth. The trousers also have ventilation openings that can be unzipped to regulate the temperature.
In addition to striking details in neon green and reflective elements, the trousers also offer good visibility thanks to their high proportion of high-visibility orange. The highly breathable gaiters connect comfortably to your shoes, protecting your legs from ticks, sawdust and snow.
STIHL ADVANCE FlexTEC trousers can be combined with the STIHL ADVANCE ShellTEC jacket for colder temperatures, or the STIHL DYNAMIC DuroTEC jacket.
