J_Pearson Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 Alright, rain pants are not necessarily "tackle," but certainly an important piece of equipment. I was looking at investing in a new pair, and I particularly like Columbia gear. I was curious if anyone has experience with the Thunderstorm II or Hail Tech pants. Which do you prefer and have you had any issues with the pass-through pockets? Thanks guys, JP Quote
central.PA.bass Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 I really like Colombia gear.. I live near the Prime Outlets and picked up a pair of Colombia Rainpants last year for cheap.. I love them.. Quote
rubba bubba Posted March 8, 2011 Posted March 8, 2011 I have the Thunderstorm II. The pass-through pocket is great to get to whatever you keep in your pants/shorts pockets. No issues of water getting in. It's lightweight/packable so if you're looking for the more sturdy/heavier this is not for you. Quote
J_Pearson Posted March 8, 2011 Author Posted March 8, 2011 Thanks guys. Yeah the lightweight + packable characteristics work well for me as opposed to big-time bibs or something like that. Very glad to hear the pockets didn't let you get soggy either. JP Quote
