Product information & specifications
HAIX Protector Forest 2.1 GTX Mid Chainsaw Boots — Class 2
The HAIX Protector Forest 2.1 GTX Mid is a premium professional forestry boot engineered for demanding chainsaw work where maximum protection, grip and climate comfort are essential. Certified to Class 2 chainsaw protection and built with robust, weatherproof materials, it's trusted by forestry professionals working in harsh, high-risk environments.
Available UK 7–13, it's in stock at Gustharts as an authorised Haix dealer, with free UK delivery on this order.
The upper is hydrophobized suede leather at 2.8–3.0mm thickness, delivering durability and breathability. A GORE-TEX Performance lining keeps the boot fully waterproof while remaining breathable, and the HAIX Climate System actively pumps warm air out with each step to regulate temperature and reduce moisture build-up during long working days. Underfoot, a Vibram rubber/PU sole gives excellent grip and stability, heat, fuel-oil and slip resistant, with lightweight PU cushioning for shock absorption. A 2-Zone lacing system allows independent adjustment of the foot and leg areas for a secure, customised fit.

Technical Details
Certified Protection Explained
Class 2 (up to 24 m/s) to EN ISO 17249:2013+AC:2014 means these boots have passed standardised chainsaw contact testing at that chain speed. General safety footwear performance meets EN ISO 20345:2011 (SB E HRO HI CI WR FO WRU SRC).
Why Choose the HAIX Protector Forest 2.1 GTX Mid?
HAIX is a German safety footwear specialist, and this Mid-height, insulated version sits alongside the standard Protector Forest 2.1 GTX (available in Orange) — the Mid adds extra insulation for colder conditions, while the standard version suits milder-weather forestry work. Both share the same GORE-TEX waterproofing and Class 2 protection.
