Snakeproof?

[StruttinGobbler3]

hey guys i've been looking for a decent pair of snakeproof chaps. where i hunt i walk through some pretty thick coverage, and its hard not to be a little paranoid about the rattlesnakes down here. i wear snake boots, but i believe a large snake could strike higher than the knee. i've looked at a few different kinds of chaps, but all of them are only snakeproof up to the knee. does anybody know of a brand that makes them snakeproof all the way up to the hip?

No not really, but I think the knee high is plenty high. The poisonous snakes here in the USA can only strike half of there length and they usually dont strike upward. I work in 2 different emergency rooms as a RN. We see several snake bites a year and I have never seen one that was more than half way to the knee. Most are at the ankle or a little above that. But anything is possible.
