Why Choose the Canopy W-AIR Type C?
SIP Protection has been designing chainsaw PPE for professional forestry and arboriculture for decades, and the Canopy W-AIR was built specifically with climbers in mind rather than adapted from a ground-based cut. The redesigned stretch waist and crotch genuinely change how the trouser moves with you aloft, and going with the Type C version here matters if your risk assessment identifies rear-leg exposure - climbing work brings the saw around the body in ways ground felling doesn't.
Certifications Explained
EN 381-5:1995 Class 1 (20 m/s) Design C certifies protection against chainsaw contact at speeds up to 20 metres per second, covering the full circumference of both legs. This standard has since been superseded by EN ISO 11393-2, though garments certified under either standard meet equivalent protection requirements. EN ISO 13688:2013 sets the general requirements for protective clothing.

FAQs
What's the difference between this and the Type A version?
Type A protects only the front of the legs. This Type C version protects the front and rear of both legs, which suits climbing work where saw contact can come from more directions.
What does Class 1 (20 m/s) mean?
It's the certified chain speed the fabric is tested to stop contact at - 20 metres per second, the standard rating for most professional arborist and forestry chainsaw work.
What size fit does this come in?
Regular fit with an 82cm inside leg, available in sizes S to XL.
Are the knees reinforced?
Yes, with waterproof Pezaflex Aqua Cordura panels with a PU coating for extra durability and water resistance in a high-wear area.
Does it have brace attachment points?
Yes, the elasticated waist has both belt loops and Velcro brace loops, plus a back bib with additional brace loops.
