A quick round-up of some of the newest arb equipment on the market.
BISON
FOREST and Arb has begun stocking a wide range of Bison axes, authentic tools with hand-forged heads, crafted in Germany to supremely high quality, ensuring your tools are good enough for the tough jobs ahead.
The full range includes hatchets, forestry axes and splitters in various sizes and all are available to view and purchase at the Forest and Arb website.
CRISPI
CRISPI has launched its own chainsaw protection boot.
Developed for both the forestry and arboriculture markets with comfort and durability in mind, the Class 2 chainsaw boot is described as very lightweight at around 930 grams. A key method for keeping the weight down while providing support is the inclusion of TWT, which is visible on the side of the boot.
The Thermo Wire Technology (TWT) is an innovative system developed by CRISPI which permits support to the upper by giving extra structure, better stability, protection and support to the shoe.
OUTWEAR is the UK and Ireland distributor for CRISPI.
REECOIL
THE new Reecoil foot loop and bolt bag is now available in the UK from Honey Brothers.
The foot loop is a hard-wearing addition to your access kit. Able to stay on your boot while climbing, for fast knee ascender use. The bolt bag features lanyard attachments, daisy chains, gear sleeves and more.
BREATHEFLEX
INTRODUCING the Breatheflex Pro Natural Collection.
The trousers are now available in three new colours – beige, olive and citrine. Featuring all the same robust and hard-wearing features of the Breatheflex Pro range but with only one slight change, these three trousers will not feature the reflective logo decal on the leg.
Available now in Type A and Type C.
Contact your local reseller for more info or check them out online.
ARB FICTION
HONEY Brothers has become a stockist for Arb Fiction T-shirts, featuring creative designs from tree climber Colm Hickey (@colm.champ on Instagram).
The T-shirts are made from 100 per cent organic cotton and are sustainably printed by a company on the Isle of Wight.
The range includes two designs exclusive to Honey Brothers inspired by Iron Maiden and Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
