I’ve heard they are not very durable. I tend to catch fabrics on something for some reason. Any first had experiences?

I bought a pair on 07′ for our BWCA trip. They worked well for light drizzle and as a wind stopper. They are very light and pack down great. They fit my need perfectly. They are basically a suit made from a vapor barrier similar to Tyvek or other house wraps.
For $20 I’d buy a large pair and stow in boat for a friend or kid when they are along and without, they hav come in handy for me. For tears I have found house wrap tape or packing tape works great, go figure its a tyvek suit…

That was my thought exactly when I ordered a set

August 14, 2012 at 11:20 am #1092001I keep 2 sets in the boat for extra persons or when it is hot out. They are very light. I have mine packed in gallon zip lock bag.
August 14, 2012 at 1:59 pm #1092033Thanks for the heads up. I took care of half of my Christmas list.
August 14, 2012 at 10:53 pm #1092118I have had 2 pair for over 10 years. These are not my only rain gear but I can say that when I have worn them I have never been wet. Mine are bibs and I did an experiment with them. I taped the ankles with duck tape put on a pair of sandles and went saining minnows in the river for over an hour. When I came out there was a little seepage around my ankles that was wet but I was bone dry. I’d say they hold the weather out pretty good.
August 14, 2012 at 11:59 pm #1092139Very good deal for an extra set to pack in the boat! Wish they had black in my size.
August 17, 2012 at 8:33 pm #1093002Thanks again. Just got my two pairs today and wish I had ordered more.
