blckshirt98 Posted March 24, 2017 Posted March 24, 2017 In a pinch if you want something waterproof that you won't need often, Frog Toggs. I also saw an ad on a sidebar for Huk Packable Raingear - $99 for the jacket or the pants - https://www.hukgear.com/products/huk-packable-rain-jacket?variant=32368141070 https://www.hukgear.com/products/huk-packable-rain-pant?variant=32976343374 1 Quote
CybrSlydr Posted March 27, 2017 Author Posted March 27, 2017 Thanks again folks for all the input - like I said, it's really good to know there are good options out there that aren't $400! Quote

Check out the deal sites like Steep&Cheep, Campsaver, The Cylmb, etc. I got a $350 rain jacket for like $90 during a sale. It is even in my preferred color, lime green. It is so so much nicer then anything I have had before, I am gonna cry so hard when it gets shredded by thorns. There are deal out there, especially if you don't care about color. Quote
Super User NHBull Posted March 27, 2017 Super User Posted March 27, 2017 LL Bean gortex shell. 100.00 Lifetime warranty! Quote
Ringonu Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 Cabelas appears to be discontinuing their guidewear gortex pullovers. Picked up one for $50 in the bargain cave. Seen others at another store kn the rack for $70. Might still be some out there if you have a store close. 1 Quote
punch Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 Marmot Precip is an AMAZING rain jacket and you can pick them up for under $50. The precip pants are awesome too.. you don't HAVE to get a "fishing" rain suit. The camping/hiking world has tested rain equipment that's cheaper & just as good (if not better) than the fishing brands. Why buy a $600 huk or simms suit when you can get a Marmot jacket & pants for like $70 on ebay? Quote
Super User Choporoz Posted April 20, 2018 Super User Posted April 20, 2018 Count me as another Frog Toggs fan. I got a set as sort of an emergency buy - last year, I 'needed' something cheap to get me through a weekend, and hopefully rest of spring. I have been very impressed with how waterproof, wearable and packable they are. I got cheapest avail, maybe $45 for both, and my only complaint is that I don't have pockets in either the jacket or the pants. Quote

I bought my dad one last season, and it was so much better than my 10-year-old Columbia rain jacket that I bought myself one too. I wear it even when it's not raining because it's terrific at blocking wind. That looks like a nice jacket for $40. I use Grundens for my foul weather gear. 1 Quote
Bass Turd Posted April 20, 2018 Posted April 20, 2018 Frog Togs leak on me. Ridiculous sale on Frabill fishing jackets and suspendered pants. They run a bit large. https://www.fieldsupply.com/apparel-outerwear/frabill.html Quote
