Arbortec AT4060 Breatheflex Pro Chainsaw Trousers - Design A Class 1
The Arbortec AT4060 Breatheflex Pro Chainsaw Trousers are engineered for professional arborists who need unrestricted movement, advanced breathability and lightweight all-day comfort without compromising certified chainsaw protection. High-tenacity stretch polymer fabric with strategically placed Kevlar® reinforcements delivers exceptional agility for climbing, pruning and aerial work, certified to EN 381-5 Class 1 (20 m/s) Design A.
Available in Black, Olive, Blue, Beige, Citrine and multi-pattern colourways, across Short, Regular and Long leg lengths, they're in stock at Gustharts as an authorised Arbortec dealer, with free UK delivery on this order.
Please note: Multi Pattern trousers are made from off-cut materials, so each pair varies in colour, pattern and panel layout — the product image is a general likeness, not the exact pair you'll receive.

Technical Details
Why Choose the Breatheflex Pro Type A?
Arbortec has built its reputation specifically around arborist workwear developed with climbing professionals, and the rear-leg ventilation zips on the AT4060 exist because arborists wanted more airflow without sacrificing front-leg protection. If you need full front-and-rear coverage rather than front-only protection, see the Breatheflex Pro Type C instead — this Type A model is the better choice when breathability and maximum mobility for climbing matter more than all-round coverage.
Compare Breatheflex Pro Type A vs Type C
| Model | Protection | Ventilation | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Breatheflex Pro A (this model) | Type A, front leg only | Rear-leg ventilation zips | Warm-weather climbing, maximum mobility |
| Breatheflex Pro C | Type C, front and rear leg | None (no vents) | Full-circumference protection, ground and rigging work |
Certified Protection Explained
EN 381-5 Class 1 (20 m/s) means these trousers have passed standardised chainsaw contact testing at a chain speed of 20 metres per second. "Design A" means the certified cut-resistant zone covers the front of the leg only. EN 381-5 is the original garment testing standard and is gradually being superseded by EN ISO 11393, the newer international equivalent — current Arbortec stock is certified and labelled to EN 381-5, which remains valid and widely accepted across UK forestry sites.
Pairs Well With
Complete your kit with a certified chainsaw helmet, a pair of chainsaw boots, and chainsaw gloves to bring your protection up to a matched standard.
