The patented bi-laminate technology with "welded" waterproof seams and unmatched sweat-free breathability is a great value in affordable rain wear. The compression packability of this suit allows it to pack down to storage pocket size, and it is perfect for backpacks, stadium seats or golf bags.

Good Rain Gear, Not for Rugged Conditions However
My husband is a conductor for the Rail Road and has to get off the train in wet conditions many times. He needed a rain suit that can be carried with him in his backpack and not take up much room. I found this one by Frogg Toggs and he loves it. The price was right so I purchased it. It is very light weight and takes up minimal room in his back pack. He loves the Khaki color instead of the normal banana yellow. We ordered it in XL and it fit him perfectly over his work clothes. The last suit he had we ordered a 2XL thinking he would need the extra room since he's a XL/2XL in clothes. He's 6'0 tall and weighs about 230 lbs. and the XL fit him nicely not too tight or too loose. The quality is a little better than expected for an inexpensive suit, and the Frogg Toggs is a reputable brand. It comes in a nice bag that you can fold the suit back into when not in use.Here are the pros and cons of this set as we found them even with several cons this set still gets a slid 5 stars from us.Pros:-Great Price-Many Sizes and Colors Available-Fit Wonderfully-Very Lightweight, Great when you have minimal storage-Material is breathable and moveableCons:-No access slits to pants underneath.-No pockets in Jacket or Pants. (Guess that's to help keep out the rain)-No zipper access for using the bathroom.-Might could use a drawstring on the pants.-The material tears easy if it gets caught but can be repaired with duct tape easily-No elastic bottoms on pants and this would be helpful.A few suggestions as this is our second rain suit purchase. Our first was Dri-Ducks by Frogg Toggs. BTW we like this set better but I digress. First suggestion. Order your size, don't order a size bigger thinking you'll need it bigger to go over your clothes. The product allows for clothing underneath in it's design. I would suggest this for yard work, dog walking, and working conditions where there’s not a lot of strenous movement. I would not suggest it for motorcycle gear.*I paid full price for this product and hope that you have found this review useful to you in some way.

MEDIUM sizing help
While reading reviews for this product I read review regarding sizing.Based on those reviews, I ordered a MEDIUM rain suit.I immediately tried it on and the medium is perfect for me.I wanted to provide some info for others in hopes of helping them choose a size.Here is the info about me:I am femaleI'm 5'5" and weight 200 lbs.I wear a 14-16 pant and an XL blouse (38-40DD bra)I purchased the MEDIUM size suitThe pants -They fit perfectly. I live in a tropical location with unexpected rains. I'm in shorts and a t-shirt most of the time. I tried the pants on over a pair of unstructured shorts - perfect fit. The legs were a tad long for flip-flops, but would be perfect if I had sneakers or other "real" shoes on.The jacket -Again, perfect. The sleeves were not too long, which can be an issue for me.If I was looking for a suit to wear over THICKER clothes, I would definitely want to get a LARGE size.However, for what I'm needing, the MEDIUM is perfect.

Great for backpacking!
I used these for backpacking. There are a few pros and cons:Pros- 1. SUPER light. SUPER SUPER light. Compared to my previous rain setup, this saved me a TON of weight in my pack, over a pound. 2. Great for wearing as an extra layer while sleeping because it does a surprisingly good job of holding your heat in. 3. Works GREAT to keep you dry and works even better at blocking wind.Cons- 1. Ugly as butt. Somebody tried to name me “Blueberry”. 2. Not super sturdy. Tore the crotch seam on day 2 while collecting water. Repaired it with duct tape and now they’re even uglier.Bottom line: if you’re a hiker who is trying to save weight in your pack and willing to make a questionable fashion statement for it, this is GREAT. especially since it doubles as wind protection or an extra layer while sleeping. I hate carrying something heavy that I’ll only use once a week or so, and this fixed that. If you are looking for a sturdy rain getup to last you forever, look elsewhere.

Very light, great for backpacking
This suit is great overall if you know what you are getting. It like a very thin piece of plastic like rubber with a thin liner, it would not hold up much to sharp objects, abrasion or rough conditions.If you are looking for a light-weight and inexpensive piece of backpacking gear, then it is awesome. I am 5'10" and weigh 165 lbs. I usually go medium for everything but the medium sized suit absolutely drowned me, even considering that it may be the outer of many layers, so I went for the small, which works much better.The weights are as follows for small:Jacket - 5.58 ozPants - 3.78 ozBoth - 9.36 ozStuff bag - 0.66 ozAll of the above - 10.02 oz

Hurricane Irma tested and approved
In Florida, newer homes are built OK but grading is lousy. I've had to drain water from my backyard and trudge through 6 inch water during tropical storms and more recently, Hurricane Irma. The outer bands of the hurricane and the wild rain was coming down in a howling cacophony of wind and water....which was eerie and unsettling for sure.Despite all of that mess, this thing kept me dry as a wick. i purchased this in addition to some knee high heavy duty galoshes. Just be sure to use the face draw string to tighten things up near your face. Other than that....perfecto!

Don't buy from USA
Product is faulty and the size is MASSIVE, but to send it back costs more than it costs.

Cheap and cheerful
It did what I wanted it too but there is no draw string at the hem. I only wore the jacket over one weekend and it got absolutely shredded after getting caught on some brambles while walking, and the rips quickly got bigger. Very glad it wasn't a more expensive bit of kit getting ripped up. My insulated jacket underneath remained protected an undamaged.

Excellent
Excellent for the money!Very waterproof and extremely breathable, perfect for hiking etc!!Fits big so could have got a smaller one but it's so you can layer up with down jackets etc

Trousers are weak when wet tear very easily,!
This product is lightweight but not strong enough when wet I had to throw trousers away the first time I used them half way through my walk, not good
