Technical Details
Why Choose the Crispi Forst GTX KL2?
Crispi is an Italian bootmaker with decades of experience in technical mountain and forestry footwear, and that heritage shows in the fit: the Forst GTX KL2 is noticeably lighter than most Class 2 chainsaw boots on the market without compromising the ankle support forestry work demands. If you want a UK-brand alternative with extra colour choice and included accessories, see the Scafell Lite Chainsaw Boots Class 2 for comparison.
