im in the market for a good mid-range (cost wise) rain gear set. Bibbs and coat. Ive been eye balling the H20's at Academy forna while, which would be about $140, but Gander Mt. also carries a similar product for about $60 more. Both sets are un-insulated which is what i want.
Anybody here have either of sets or something like it that can share some input?

Frog Toggs or the knockoff versions are a lot cheaper and perform great for me and my kids in warm to cool weather.

Thanks for the replies guys.
I have not tried the newer generation of Frog Toggs, but i have tried them when they first came out. They were great standing in the rain, but if i sat on a wet seat, i would get a wet rear. Maybe they have changed things, i will have to look into those.

That is the same case with my frog toggs. Rain is good but sitting in them gets you a wet rear. I do like them and use the as my outer layer over coveralls in the winter kayaking mainly for rain/paddle drip. I add a neoprene pad under the seat to help absorb wet seat butt.

Mine are not new generation they are several years old.

I have sat in a puddle of water in my boat while wearing my ToadZ bibs and have never gotten wet. The ToadZ have a much sturdy thicker feel than the regular Frogg Toggs. They feel a lot like the BPS Extreme suits but don't come with that price tag.

I have these bibs: http://www.froggtoggs.com/mens/mens-pants-outerwear/bibs/toadskinz-bib-pant.html

Yeah they dont look like the pourous original frog toggs that i had. they were made out of something similar to like a Tyvek house wrap or something.
Thanks, im gonna look into them!
