I wear whatever happens to be on my feet when ever something needs chainsawing.

I wear these. They are pretty comfortable, warm and dry. I have walked in 3"-4" deep water with them and my feet stayed dry. They are quite big and heavy, not in an uncomfortable way, but I do occasionally step on the brake and gas in my car, and I step on the dog's toes more often when I wear them. Being "average" height, I do like the the higher heels.

They have steel toes, but no other chainsaw specific protection as some of the others do. I didn't know as much about PPE when I bought them as I do now. I guess they are still better than something with a "soft" toe.

Let us know how they work out for you. They certainly offer some serious protection.

Will do FBF, the boots I'm wearing have seen better days.

Yes it is, I'll be paying a little more because I went through our local shop (Wood Chop Shop) but well worth it, great shop to deal with.

The Labonvilles are good boots Zap. When I was shopping they were my number two choice, and I seriously considered them... What I ended up with was the Matterhorn 12277: Mens 10” Waterproof UL® Steel Toe Chainsaw Boot. Expensive, but IMHO worth it - more kevlar padding, gore-tex lining, a little higher for more ankle / shin protection, etc... I figured it gave me just that much more protection than the Labonvilles...

I haven't (and don't want to) test the saw protection, but otherwise I've been very happy with them... They wear well, keep my feet dry, and are generally the most comfortable pair of boots I've ever owned. I now wear them by choice any time I'm doing "toe hazard" work, not just when using a saw...

How so? Are they tight? I did some research and found that they run narrow in that if you wear a D width then buy an E. I've only worn them for a few hours and they are quite comfortable so far.

on me its around the steel toes just seems to rub my feet raw. I even tryed the carhartt Steele toe socks and a lot of leather conditioner on the boots.

Thats a bummer man sorry to hear it. They are expensive boots and I bet you could get a good chunk of your money back on Ebay if they are in decent condition.
