HAIX Protector Forest 2.1 GTX Chainsaw Boot is a full-height tree work boot for professionals working in demanding ground conditions. It combines Class 2 chainsaw protection with support, durability, and comfort. The 2.8–3.0 mm water-repellent suede leather upper pairs with a waterproof and breathable GORE-TEX® Performance lining to keep feet dry and maintain excellent climate control. A rugged VIBRAM® rubber/PU outsole delivers exceptional grip on steep, muddy, and uneven terrain while resisting abrasion, heat, and fuel oil. The HAIX® 2-Zone Lacing System lets you adjust the forefoot and upper boot independently for a precise fit. The HAIX® Climate System promotes continuous airflow with every step to improve all-day comfort. Certified to EN ISO 17249:2013 Class 2 (24 m/s) and EN ISO 20345:2011, the Protector Forest 2.1 GTX also features an anatomically shaped steel toe cap, reinforced rubber rand, anti-friction lacing elements, and compatibility with HAIX® GRIP+ spikes. This makes it an ideal choice for forestry professionals and arborist ground crews working in tough environments.
