Chainsaw pants

Any recommendations for pants, or bibs? No chaps please.
I'm really starting to dislike my chaps so I thought I would shop for pants. Then, while browsing the internet, I saw some bib style saw pants and thought they would be comfy. Any thoughts?
Thanks.
 
Didn't know they made them,I think I like the chaps better than I would like pants as I take them off when not cutting and they can get hot.

I guess I should have been more specific about my chaps. They are apron style and I don't like that they are not wrap around. The open back gets caught on stuff and stuff gets caught on it.
And the waist strap doesn't keep the chaps in place.
I do most of my cutting in cooler weather. I seldom cut in the summer unless I need to remove a downed tree or something like that.
 
Pflanner or Clogger are what a lot of the pros use, expensive but they'll last a long time for most us weekend warriors. Woodland Pro from Baileys is probably a good compromise on cost / quality.

If you are ok with a good pair of chaps, I bought these, and they are easy on, and easy off, and are comfortable to wear. Plus they are made in the US, and I always try to buy stuff made in the US, and I always try to avoid buying anything made in China.

I have these also and have never had any issues you mentioned. They work very well in my opinion

Sithl and husquvarna both make chainsaw pant. I believe the linecrew at my company wear the husky ones. I would be a bit surprised if the average stihl dealer has them on the shelves. Might have to find a logging supply company. Forstner I believe used to have them too, there was a logging supply company by one of my work sites that had them in there maybe 6 or 7 years back. They relocated a bit north and never went there since though. Here's the stihl ones. Im hooked on my MS261, so im a stihl guy.... I do get the occasional nusiance with my chaps, but only cut wood for trail and food plot maintenance, no home heating much anymore besides the camp gang doing 2 or 3 cords firewood weekend.
