What protective clothing do you use during chainsaw milling?

I set logs on sawhorses and the mill is about at chest level.

Thanks for your input.

Chaps, kevlar gloves, helmet with face shield, steel toes, hearing protection. And remember that a sharp chain is a safe chain.

I like to do my milling at or below waist level, so I can see the end of the bar and add wedges to both sides. I don't think there's enough safety gear that would induce me to mill at chest level.....
