Cheer up....I could have done an "oil thread".
For years, I have used Frogg Toggs separate rain pants and jackets. I feel that they inexpensive, give decent protection and are waterproof up to a point. My problem with them is that they don't last long. After about one season they start to develop small rips and tears that eventually let the water in. The last jacket/pants I bought lasted about a year and a half. At $90 for both jacket/pants, I feel that's an OK value.
However...I would like to get something that is more substantial. I have noted that even Frogg Toggs have more expensive, more robust suits. Your opinions on the absolute best rain gear?
