I Bought the New Version. I Hated It
from Wranglerstar on Odysee Hosted by Wranglerstar
I recently picked up a pair of top-of-the-line Pro Mark steel chainsaw chaps — and I don't like them. Too long, too thick, too many buckles, and the redesigned thigh pocket is a mess. So instead of keeping the new pair, I broke out the sewing kit and repaired my old, worn-out ones to get another fire season out of them. In this video I walk through the full repair: replacing torn webbing straps, swapping in new buckles, hand-stitching heavy-duty synthetic thread made for denim, and getting my favorite chaps back in action — better than before. If you've ever had a piece of gear get "upgraded" into something worse, or you're just curious about basic repair sewing, this one's for you. ⏱️ CHAPTERS 0:00 - Why I hate the new chaps 1:00 - Digging through my parts bin 2:19 - Prepping the repair 3:00 - Choosing the right thread 4:12 - Removing the old stitching 5:29 - Sewing in the new webbing 8:22 - Upgrading the buckles 10:48 - The finished repair 🧵 GEAR I USE & RECOMEND 🧵 Japanese Scissors - https://amzn.to/4iSHaKe 🧵 Japanese needles - https://amzn.to/4694j3F 🪒 Thread ripper - https://amzn.to/4694j3F ✂️ Clippers - https://amzn.to/4iRnOVM 📍 Clover Leather Double Sided Thimble - https://amzn.to/4xMkVuf 📩 Business inquiries: [email protected] #ChainsawChaps #GearRepair #SewingRepair #Homestead #Wranglerstar #ChainsawSafety #FirewoodSeason #DIYRepair #RightToRepair #SkookumGear ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c51UTjNdJMA
