Some details about this rain gear you may want to know....
If you understand what you are getting with this rain suit, I believe you will be pleased. This is a very well priced set, but it does have limitations! Think about what you want this for before you make your decision and choose accordingly and I don't think you will be disappointed :) I chose this set because I needed a lightweight rain suit for farm work in the pouring rain. I have a heavy, rubberized jacket and pants I've used prior to this purchase and, while it does keep me dry, it's so heavy that it makes chores way more difficult. Plus, the heavier material doesn't breathe like the Frogg Toggs so you end up sweating which is horrible! Here are the Pros and Cons about the Frogg Toggs (in my humble opinion) Pros: VERY affordable! Sizing is pretty accurate - I'm 5'2, 150 lbs and large busted with a tummy and the Large fits great with plenty of room, good sleeve length and about 4 extra inches in the pant length (I rolled them up) The large gives me enough room to wear sweats underneath with still enough room to move around Sturdy Zipper - Easy on and off and the "handle" is large enough to easily grab with gloves on Wide opening at the bottom of the pants - Easily handles muck boots and there is a velcro closure so you can tighten the bottom Seams - Well stitched and strong Fabric - While it may seem this "paper like" fabric would be flimsy, it is actually quite strong and the best thing is it breaths while still keeping out the rain! It is initially a bit stiff but after you wear these for a while, they soften up Cons: The fabric is rather noisy! I would not recommend these if you want to use these for anything stealthy like hunting or attempting to sneak up on a Sasquatch! It does get better with use.. Hood - I really wish they had added a bit more fabric on this hood - especially near the bottom of the hood where it shields your face on the sides. Also, if you wear a baseball cap, the hood is just a bit on the small side to be able to reach to the brim of your hat so you may find you are often tugging on the hood to pull it forward. Might not be an issue if you have a tiny, tick head but my head size is average and I found this a wee bit annoying :( POCKETS! I know...I know...this is not an expensive set but...really? How much could it really cost them to add pockets - at least to the jacket? Maybe they have a good reason why they don't like the light weight fabric may not hold up or they are trying to keep the price of the set down but really...I would pay an extra $10 for this set if they added pockets!!! It's just really annoying to have to either pull the jacket up to get to the pockets in your sweatshirt underneath or unzip the jacket to get to the pockets. Seems like a no brainer to add them but, again, the price reflects what you are getting I guess Overall, I really like this set and I'm glad I got it! For what i use it for, it's great. I don't know how well this fabric would hold up for heavy use like brush clearing, but for keeping you dry for light to moderate chores, backpacking, camping or walking, this is wonderful! Hope this was helpful info :)
